Dark/soO: The fate of the two Zergs is undetermined, the next few rounds determines who enters the finals

Original Chinese source:
+ Show Spoiler +
http://s.163.com/15/0215/10/AIG5OJ4D00314Q8T.html


[image loading]

Q: How does it feel to get first place?

Dark : Before I came here, I was quite nervous actually. Even my hands were shaking. But I adapted quicker than I imagined. I feel so alive again.

soO : Since the opponent came from a strong team, it was very nerve wracking. Dark's energy allowed us to win, which is so amazing.

Q: SKT has two Zergs. Most teams aren't like this.

soO : Actually, unexpected events can happen at any time, so we all prepared really well. The result is two Zergs. But if things happened differently, there would probably be different players.

Q: When you're behind 0 to 1, do you feel a lot of pressue?

soO : I don't feel much pressure. When I played against Cure, I felt confident that I could win.

Q: In the finals you got 3Kill?

Dark : I never imaged I would get 3Kill, I was just expecting one win. I was already at two outs, so if I lost again, I would be done for. After I beat rogue, I felt like I could clear myself.

Q: Your coach iloveoov says that your practice methods weren't standard, so you entered a slump.

Dark : I thought the individual rounds were just a matter of practice, but it wasn't as easy as I expected, so I just lost.

Q: You two Zergs probably had a good rivalry amongst yourselves. Was there anything useful you could learn from each other?

Dark : I sat next to my teammate soO. While he was fighting Cure, he would gain an advantage by applying pressue to the opponent, so I knew he had some skill. What I think is worth learning from him is simply his energy. Even when I lost two games, so0 still survived. Pretty good, I would say.

soO : Dark's actions are very accurate, he reacts very fast, so I would say he's better than me in every aspect.

Q: When the first round ended, what were your goals for the second round?

Dark : I played a lot in the first round. I mean, I still think my teammate is much better than me. When I play it's really difficult. I want to work harder so that I do better next round.

soO : In the first round, I didn't play as much as I expected. Also, there were times when I didn't want to play. But I feel like I gave my teammate too many chances. Now I need to grab my plate, and start all over again. (laughs)

Q: Do you think that in the second round, SKT will dominate the finals?

Dark : Of course.

soO : Definitely.

Q:What's the biggest threat in the second round?

Dark : Jinair is probably the biggest.

soO : KT seems strong. Life's assistance will help KT big time, so we need to be cautious.

Q: Anything else you want to say?

Dark : I've been so busy these past two weeks (laughs). I lost twice in the individual rounds. Also been thinking a lot about it. My fans, parents, coach are all supporting me. I feel much better and will give it another shot. From now on, I will definitely improve myself to impress everyone.

soO : While preparing, I heard something like "soO is a curse, there's no way SKT will win". It's so annoying when people say that I'm the reason why my team can't win, so I just work harder. I will definitely improve myself, make sure that people won't be saying anything the same bad about me during the next few rounds and the finals.

Two of my favorite Zergs. It's funny how SKT managed to have 4 of my top 10 fav. players. A year ago I would be rooting against SKT, too!

soO macro game is still one of the best, especially in TvZ. If he goes untouched and have the 3rd-4th base, he'll most probably win against terran.

Dark's social nature allowed us to win

Wtf?
Also

"soO is a curse, there's no way SKT will win"

You got it the wrong way soO, it's "SKT is a curse, there's not way soO will win" d:
