Q. How do you handle Protoss' all-ins e.g. adepts cheese?

A. I practiced with MyungSik, and you cannot be bad at holding against protoss all-ins if you play with him.

Q. You`re a bit aggresive today.

A. Because sOs is an unpredictable guy, I thought it'd be better to be aggressive. Before the game, Maru came to me and played some kinda mind games, saying "I know what you`re up to - litterally everything, brother." But I won (giggle)

Q. This is your first time to Blizzcon.

A. I'm really looking forward to it. Since a player who advanced Blizzcon can bring one person to Blizzcon as a coach, everyone offers me to be my coach LoL. But I`m not thinking about anyone yet.

[* He also said he'd take Inno if possible.]

Q. How did you handle your mind after Set #1?

A. I was supposed to win that game, but made some mistakes. However, somehow I saw Inno`s picture hanged in the venue - I gained the strength from that.

Q. Will you be at tomorrow`s SSL finals?

A. Dunno yet...uh? Inno will be there? I'll be there no matter what happens!

Q. Now you`re the first Terran winner of LotV. Do you prefer free atmosphere of being independent? You know, like TaeJa?

A. He`s a bit too free. (laugh)
Tho I'm satisfied with the current situation, I`m also looking for a team. I got several offers, including foreign teams and personal sponsorship. I want to play both Korean leagues and WCS, if possible. It doesn`t violate any regulations, afaik.

Q. Who do you expect for your opponent in Cross-finals?

A. Solar. I've got a score to settle with him. You know, SSL Season 1.

Q. You`re the champ now So would you like to appear on the show called "close-up?"

A. I thought that`s only for SSL players. hmmm... I would, yes, I would.

ByuN should found his own team calling it eSF, would get my flair replaced

It shows he did practice with KeSPA players as well btw


I Protoss winner, could it be?

amphibious? I wrote "unpredictable." your quote also makes sense tho.

edit: I checked OP. maybe it's a malapropism.

Maybe it should be ambiguous as in hard to predict so I better play aggressive to not give him a chance to play his game

Or something like that

What a god.
He figured out how to handle adept's shades by moving workers and army into middle main base instead of chasing the shades.After that,adepts are fish on the table.

He said during an interview that KeSPA players refused to practice with him but during another interview he said he's still practicing with KeSPA players but he refuses to give name to protect them. Typical ByuN move.

Afaik, players get their practice partners in two ways; teammate and acquaintance.

It is natural to have difficulty getting practice partners if you do not have a team, because the latter option might conflict with their own schedule and situations.

This has nothing to do with political matters; it`s rather personal.

So much love to Inno ... but that would be awesome how to get Inno to BlizzCon :-)
He could actually take with him one of his practice partners ... Scarlett??? :-)

I am actually not sure ... is ByuN straight?

JAGW doesn't have a single player qualified for Blizzcon yet? Maybe he can take one of their coaches and use sOs's private JAGW jet while he's at it. Of course, sOs's face will have to be replaced with ByuN's.

It would be fantastic if he took Inno to Blizzcon.

Inno could coach him to do a sick Thor drop.

It's possible, but it'd be really expensive to fly him back and forth since he'd have to remain outside of Korea and there may actually be restrictions on that since he would be a non citizen. Still, it'd be hard to find someone willing to move him back and forth so much, especially since there would be jet lag issues and travel time issues because of how long he'd be in Korea for events.

I am not sure if him playing in WCS and korean leagues at the same time will be viable for a sponsor

Maru with the betrayal to terran race

SKT might not be OK with Innovation going as coach of Byun though

I don't think the rules would allow it. Im sure people were saying you can only spend like 5 weeks out of the country etc. Would be interesting to see though.

You can only spend 5 weeks away for non competitive reasons. I'm just not sure if they ever intended GSL and SSL in that whole thing since the Koreans moving to WCS did it to avoid the GSL and SSl

- Inno mancrush (anyone know why this is? I still don't get why he got a bromance going on there).
- Wanted Dark to win SSL S2.
- Practices with Myungsik.

Seems like he has good connections with SKT, maybe if he does decide to join a KESPA team for next year, it's them. Then again he seemed pretty friendly and chatty with Dear and Stork earlier this year during SSL challenger.
