soO

Thoughts on helping the team win ?
-I was in a losing streak, ending it makes me glad. Also, having the three Zergs all win makes me even happier.

You played Samsung’s Ace, Stork.
-From reputation, I am just a nobody in front of him, but I really practiced hard, so I wasn’t too nervous.

Your opponent’s first rush damaged you.
-In practice, I never would’ve let Zealots and HT damage me. Stork really is different from others. But even though I took some losses, I also made Protoss lose their entire army, so I didn’t think it was a huge disadvantage.

This is the first time your team had 3 Zerg wins.
-We weren’t completely trying for it, it seems that today was just special.

SKT seems to be recovering.
-Because regular season is ending soon, everyone’s kind of hurried. We all want to get into playoffs, so we’re trying hard, so I guess our record is improving.

You were the only Zerg on the team who was in a losing streak.
-For a period, I played pretty well, and I was overly content with it, so I practiced less. I had a wake-up call, so now I’m working hard.

Goal for R5?
-s2 and I have the same goal, which is 10 wins. In the future, we’ll strive for more wins.

Last words?
-I want to thank Hyuk for being our moral support for so long. Yesterday, Boxer-hyung’s relatives treated us to beef and sausages, need to make a note of that. We ate well.

Hyuk

Thoughts on winning?
-Not only was it the first time we played 3 Zergs, it’s the first time we won like this, I’m really happy.

Did you expect Jangbi?
-I knew he would play. From the players’ appearance rates on maps, Jangbi is the one who played on the map the most, so I was prepared.

The opponent wanted to play Corsair-DTs, your defense was very good.
-My Scourge saw the Corsairs, so I had a general impression. His Corsairs came to the main, so I thought he would have DTs, so I was able to defend it. Because of the huge advantage from that, I was able to win easily.

You’ve had good momentum recently.
-I feel like I’ve found my style for live games. Before this, I’ve just imitated other players’ styles, but recently, my hard work is paying off, so to a degree, I’ve found my own style.

Samsung played 3 Protosses.
-On Fighting Spirit and Grand Line, we expected Protoss. We predicted 2P1Z for the first three games, so we mainly practiced ZvP, so we were able to successfully counter them.

It seems SKT’s Zergs have become much stronger.
-I can’t speak for others, but personally, I’ve become much better at ZvZ and ZvP recently. I still haven’t found a good way to practice for ZvT, but I still feel better about it recently, and with some ZvT victories, I hope to continue this momentum.

Last words?
-Best helped a lot with practice, thanks.

s2

Thoughts on ending it?
-I played when we were up 2-0, so it was 3 Zergs vs. Samsung. Because my teammates all won, I wanted to win too, and to be able to makes me glad.

Your opponent played an aggressive management style.
-Brave quickly scouted my main, so I expected a 2-gate. My Zerglings saw his Zealots. I confirmed my opponent’s strategy, and I’ve played against this before, so I played with confidence.

You lost your second Hatchery, so you were in danger.
-Even though I thought that I could be disadvantaged when I lost the second Hatch, my opponent attacked with Zealots before Mutalisks came out, so I thought if I could kill off this force, I could just attack. It seemed to work well.

You were sent out when your team was up 2-0. Were you confident ending it?
-I practiced a lot of ZvP, so I was confident. I didn’t see a 2-gate in practice, but when I first saw this new map, I thought the rush distance is small, which is suitable for Zealot rushes, so I thought the opponent would do this. Because I expected it, I guess I could win.

You’ve been doing well lately.
-Even though I’ve done well recently, my overall record for 09-10 is still about 50/50, so I can’t be satisfied yet. I was able to get a good record recently because our Zerg leader Hyuk has been helping us a lot. When I have questions, Hyuk-hyung can always gie me advice, and give me powerful support.

Goal for R5?
-10 wins is my goal. And if we can get into playoffs that’d be best.

Last words?
-When we decided on playing 3 Zergs for this game, our team’s Protosses all helped us with focusedly. Best and sun,doo [T/N: whozzat?] helped me, I want to thank them.

Thank you veggie wolf!!

I lol'd so hard after looking at the results/watching the vods. Also, your [b] tags are messed up in Hyuk's interview.

I'm glad the zergs are developing their game sense, if they're not lying in their interviews. T1 seems to be great at training mechanics - look at how Hyuk and the other zergs quickly appeared to have great ling/muta micro in ZvZ, so game sense is the missing part.

I always facepalm when players don't infer what their opponents are doing from what they DON'T see.

I'm surprised at how s2 reacted considering that he claims he was already thinking early on that brave was going 2-gate. But still, a win is a win.

It's also nice how the T1 zergs seem to be developing some sort of comradery, and Hyuk is stepping it up to help his zerg peers.

T1 - fly high!

Thanks for the re-translations.

Dang, never thought I would see this day, when SKT T1 is led by their Zerg players. Congrats to Hyuk though, I really enjoy watching each of your games.

Thanks for the translation! s2 answers quite strange since Brave easily could have won that game if he just had made masscannons at his nat after the hatch was taken out.

Yeah, Brave could have won had he made a few more zealots for the block and a couple of cannons... in fact, I didn't think a progamer could lose from that point in the game.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.
