Your winner of the rematch of last season's finals is.... SKT


Kwanro: I must maintain my health

[image loading]


Q: You managed your first victory after being transferred to SKT.
A: I'm really happy that I was able to win on my first game after being transferred. My opponent was Action, who also just transferred to KT. I more or less guessed that it would be him, so I was neither pressured nor anxious.

Q: When you initially transferred to Woongjin, your performance was lacking.
A: At that time, I had just moved into the practice house, so I didn't actually have much time to practice. This time, before the match, I had already consulted with my new teammates, and I had already acclimated myself to the new practice house, so I was able to get a good start here.

Q: Compare the three teams that you've played for.
A: CJ [T/N it's hite now], Woongjin, and SKT all suit me pretty well. The coaches in cj/woongjin said my dreams were too big for my skill level, but SKT likes my ambition and they're helping me to channel it. [T/N thanks Milkis for checking the original Korean on this one, I've modified a few words to keep it in first person]

Q: Your opponent's first wave of zerglings was very threatening.
A: Defending 9pool zergling attacks is my specialty. (haha) I know better than anyone the mentality behind a 9pool, so I felt no pressure defending it.

Q: Your goal for this season?
A: I don't really have one yet. Over the last year, I saw Flash earn 50 wins, and I thought he was definitely a player to respect. My personal goal, though, is just to keep myself healthy and maintain a good condition.

Q: Any final remarks?
A: I hope that in the future I can show this type of success again to support our team.

http://www.wfbrood.com/xingji/hanguoxingji/xingji_56808.html


Bisu: Goal is 30 wins; eSports scene has a bad atmosphere; need fan support

[image loading]


Q: Feelings on your win?
A: I'm overjoyed, and I hope I can maintain my good condition.

Q: Until now, you've never beaten ForGG in a televised game.
A: I already knew that, ForGG is my archenemy. (haha) However I was still very confident I would win.

Q: What would you have done if your opponent was Flash?
A: I wouldn't have played the way I did. In today's game, I had a huge advantage, so I played like whatever.

Q: Your goal for this season?
A: 08-09 season went very well for me, and people flattered me, but the 09-10 season ended up a disaster for me. Our team's victory of the 08-09 Proleague also made me arrogant. Once we lost to KT, I performed a heavy-hearted reflection on myself. So this season, my goal is not very high, 30 wins will satisfy me. If I can make this goal, in the future I'll raise it to 30 or 40 wins.

Q: Did the acquisition of Kwanro really help to promote your team's skill level?
A: He is a progamer with personality, and that has definitely helped our practices a lot. His cooperation with his teammates is very good. He's helped out our team in every aspect.

Q: Any final remarks?
A: Right now the eSports atmosphere is very strange, but I hope fans will continue to support us.

and (if you watched the ending of the match live) the moment you've all been waiting for

Best: Earning two victories, including against Flash, has really moved me

[image loading]


Q: You won twice in one day
A: Winning twice in one day really moved me. Beating Flash also excited me greatly. On top of that, we also defeated our rivals in the telecommunications business!

Q: Your skill seems to have increased substantially.
A: Compared to before, I'm playing better, and I've reduced my number of mistakes.

Q: When you reached the ACE match, did you guess your opponent would be Flash?
A: Yes. If the opponent weren't Flash, I would have been even more relaxed. I prepared very extensively for the ace match.

Q: You were previously in a 4 game losing streak against Flash.
A: Before, I was very confident in my PvT, but after being beaten 4 times by Flash, I lost confidence, but beating him this time has helped me rediscover my confidence. Before, I always wanted to take revenge, and this time, I was finally able to take advantage of the opportunity.

Q: You seemed to really regret not being able to play Flash in the finals last year [T/N it was announced afterward that had the match reached game 7, SKT would have sent out Best, and of course KT would have sent out Flash]
A: I did feel some regrets. Even though our team lost, I still wanted to play in the ace match.

Q: How was the match against HoeJJa? [T/N TY Aesop and Cambium for pointing out that HoeJJa is left-handed, which explains the Chinese phrasing.]
A: I think it was only my choice of tactics that won me the game. There wasn't really a crisis for me; the win was pretty relaxed.

Q: How much have you compensated for your PvZ?
A: In the offseason, I realized many things that I hadn't understood about PvZ before, and my teammates have really been a great help.

Q: Goal for the season?
A: My personal goal is 35 wins.

Q: Any final remarks?
A: Not long ago was the four year anniversary of my debut and my birthday, so many fans sent me presents. I'm really thankful, so I will continue working hard to repay everyone.

SHOCKED

That explains his endless aggression and lack of micro after he gained a huge advantage...but for the sake of your fans, I hope you will micro your stuff in the future anyway...

Beastly macro display though, very Bestesque.

Waiting for the interview from the beast himself.

Thx for the translation! Glad you stepped up when all the usual translators are afk. I honestly thought Konadora would have picked this up. Ptff.

Yay, winner interview!!

The hoejja question might be related to Hoejja being one of the few left-handed players on the circuit, and sometimes it's said that they think or play "differently" because of that.

Come on, you can do better than that Bisu. Even Best has a higher goal.
If you are not Bisu, chances are I hate you.

Woo, glad SKT won and BeSt was able to take that ace match, he was denied last finals.
