"I want to give January a gift" -Stork


- This is your 3rd time in a row to be in the semifinal of WCG Korea
▲ At 2007, I saw Free getting 4th place in the 3rd/4th place match. After the match we had dinner with each other. 4th place is just a bad place to be in so I wasn't that happy. I was afraid I might become a 4th placer so even during the holidays I felt very uncomfortable, so I practiced really hard.

- In 2007 you got a gold medal while in 2008 you got a silver medal
▲ To be honest I really wanted 2 gold medals for the WCG grand finals. This time in China I wish I can make it happen

- Your performance was excellent today, it looked like you practiced alot
▲ After reading Fantasy's interview, he talked as if he was going to be representing Korea. I felt like he was talking as if it was obvious he will win against me. After that point, my priorities wasn't to win today's game, rather try my best not to lose today. I practiced very hard, but I spent most of my time offracing in another server.

- Your macro management was great in set 1
▲ I thought to myself if my build had even one small error I would be in a bad situation. But MBCgame heroes' Jaehoon has taught me some special tips at situations like these as a protoss player. I never tried the tips Jaehoon gave me during practice, but after the first attempt today I think this is a good build.

- You also won set 2
▲ Fantasy uses very similar builds in every TvP. When people said Fantasy's TvP was invincible I also felt that it was at times. However there is a counter to everything. I knew as long as Fantasy didn't see my dark templar build I would win regardless. After seeing the scan in main expansion, I knew I was going to win.

- Who do you want to meet at the semifinals?
▲ I wish both players would get disqualified. I wish they both come to the stadium late allowing me to get to finals. But if I do end up in the 3rd/4th place match I wish I play anything except zerg (laughs). These days, PvZ is so hard for me. This Swarm Season is really killing my PvZ even in practice. I can even settle with 3rd place and bring this as a gift to my coach. I want to be first place, but to be honest with you, I think being 3rd place is as close as I'll ever get.

- Last words?
▲ When Head Coach January gets back, I want to give her a special gift. I wish the Zerg player at my Semifinal match wouldn't 'Tour (관광)' (word play of Touring/Raping. IE "LOL LET ME SHOW U A TOUR OF HOW TO RAPE THIS KID") me (laughs). These days I am practicing in a very relaxed manner. Since January isn't in the practice house, I am having such a blast with all this free time available to me (laughs). Okay I was kidding. When January comes back, I will try harder for our next proleague win.

"I wish Flash and I both can represent Korea" -Luxury


- You beat your younger brother Yarnc 2:0
▲ Although I beat Yarnc, I'm not completely happy with this win. But this is the world of Winners and only Winners so I had no choice. Yarnc has lost in the finals so I was very worried whether today will send him into a spiraling slump.

- Technically, wouldn't you be one sending him into a slump (laughs)
▲ He'll get better soon.

- You must want your 2nd WCG grand final win
▲ It will be a very hard thing to accomplish, but I really want to try.

- Since you're in the semifinals now, you have a very high chance of representing Korea now.
▲ Although being in semifinals does allow you to have a high chance of representing Korea, dropping to 4th place is the worst thing possible. I really hope I don't get to place 3rd/4th place match this time again.

- Who do you want to play in semifinals?
▲ If I play against Bisu, I think I have a good chance of getting into finals. But, if flash comes by I think I'll have to play 3rd/4th place match. I wish flash gets to semifinals so we both can go to China.

- How are you spending your vacation?
▲ I am practicing really hard. These days my body is getting out of shape so my belly is getting larger. I had other medical treatments and they all told me my body was sick.

- Last words?
▲ Tomorrow Flash and Bisu are playing, and I really hope Flash wins. Also I want to thank all the zergs who practiced with me. Yarnc I know you lost to me today but I hope you get over it and become a better player.

I guess stork really doesn't give a shit about starcraft anymore. Using strategies for the first time and not giving a damn about praciting..

Maybe pent up frustrations from January's marriage.

Haha, Stork is so self-degrading, I love that in a person.

Sounds like Fantasy kicked Stork into dino rage mode here, haha.

Stork is supposedly playing a lot of WoW. There have been rumors that he stopped playing for awhile only to practice hard for Incruit, but since he won it, he probably came back to playing.

Nice interviews, really like both of these players. It's nice of Lux to stick up for his teammate FlaSh too! Surprised that he wants FlaSh to do so well. Also maybe Lux's slump was because he was sick with a bloated gut or w/e n_n
