That was WAY closer than it should have been. Especially considering + Show Spoiler +
RuBy got DQ'd against Flash for something dumd


Action

[image loading]
[T/N ##Vote Action]


Q: Your thoughts on winning?
A: When I discovered who my opponent was going to be, I was very worried, but it's good that I won in the end.

Q: Why were you worried about yoru opponent?
A: I've lost to Yellow before, and his games are usually watched very closely, so I was worried about whether I could win.

Q: You've played a lot of ZvZ this season, are you being particularly chosen to play ZvZ?
A: It's all coincidence; it's not necessarily that I want to play so many ZvZs. Since I don't really like playing ZvZ, I want to play my other matchups.

Q: In the game, when your mutalisks faced off with Yellow's, you ended up in a crisis.
A: I won the first skirmish, so I didn't think I would lose the air battle. I just thought of survival, and I was slightly stunned at facing a loss right there. It's good that my scourge timing was fine.

Q: Out of the people who changed teams during the offseason, your success is the greatest.
A: I suddenly got a paycheck, and my environment changed a lot, and so my ambitions changed too (haha). I started thinking it wasn't okay if I played badly, and I started getting a lot of positive stress regarding my record. I think this is a good influence on me. [T/N thanks Milkis]

Q: Have you discussed results with other players who changed teams?
A: We regularly get together to chat, but we rarely discuss performance.

Q: Right now, are you fully integrated into KT?
A: I can't say fully yet, but I've adjusted to a good degree. Right now, there are people who I'm getting along better with, but there are some aspects of life that are still inconvenient for me.

Q: Your next opponent will be Samsung. Who do you want to face?
A: If Grape is available, I don't want to play him. Aside from Grape, I'm fine with anyone. I don't feel like I'm on the same team as him anymore, so if we play it'll be very weird.

Q: Anything else?
A: Hoejja and coach HOT have told me a lot of things, so I'm thankful for that. Aside from them, there are too many others to thank, so I'll just say "Thanks everyone!" (haha)

ForGG and Stats

[image loading]


Q: Your thoughts on winning the match?
Stats: GoRush actually has a winning record head-to-head against me, so I was very anxious. Even though I won, the game was very ugly, but since the team won in the end I'm delighted.
ForGG: Once I knew Rock was going to be my opponent, I knew epic cheese was incoming, so I was worried about that. But I told myself that if I was calm and passed the early game safely, I would be able to win easily.
Stats: I'll also say that today's strategy was one that ForGG never used, not even in practice (haha). [T/N thanks Milkis for fixifying this]
ForGG: I didn't intend to play conservatively. But I felt a little uneasy during the game, so it ended up that way.

Q: Is it because you (ForGG) have been beaten by Rock before?
ForGG: Nope, it's just that on this map P has a lot of cheese options.

Q: Up until the midgame, you (Stats) were in a disadvantageous situation.
Stats: I lost my main, and at that point I though to myself "I lost like this..." But I still thought that it wasn't yet time to GG, so I redoubled my focus on the game. Once the 4 o'clock base went down, the game started turning in my favor. Unfortunately, I also had bad premonitions at that point. I didn't have much resources at that point, so I had to be cautious. Luckily, my opponent didn't make mutas, so I could rely heavily on the power of reavers to save the day. If mutalisks had come out, I probably would have lost (haha).

Q: People often say your [T/N Chinese doesn't say who this is directed at, but I'll assume Stats?] games are quite interesting.
Stats: I want to play an elegant game, but to be honest playing makes me really tired. So playing cleanly is better.

Q: What did you (ForGG) feel while watching Stats play?
ForGG: I was very amused. I know that in the past, I've also played a lot of amusing games. But it's the spectator who is happy watching; the player himself is dead tired (haha). But I hope that in the future there will be many of this type of game.

Q: In the opening, you (ForGG) harassed a lot to gain a lead.
ForGG: At the outset, I didn't think of using a contain, but since Rock got two bases without even a single Dragoon, I ended up gaining a great advantage.
Stats: As a P, seeing that situation just made me enraged (haha). Of course, Rock is on a different team, but seeing a fellow Protoss in that situation was painful.

Q: You (ForGG) must have been in that situation before in practice.
ForGG: Very often, in fact, but in practice Stats always stops me cold, so it was I who was enraged. (haha)
Stats: Seeing it in practice is good because it helps you resist the strategy better. Same with getting the impluse to smash your keyboard. (haha)

Q: Your next opponent is Samsung.
Stats: I don't really have a player I want to face. I just want to win an unconditional victory.
ForGG: I only want to play an opponent I can beat. As to who that might be, I'll let everyone ponder it. We're gradually starting to face stronger opponents, so I hope we can continue winning.

Q: Did Flash's win by default influence you?
ForGG: Not at all. To be honest, being disqualified for accidentally quitting at the start is really regrettable. In this type of win, Flash had no chance to be dominant. I feel some pity for Ruby. Our opponent had a strategy prepared and everything, but he didn't get the chance to show his fans.

Q: Any final comments?
Stats: Coaches HOT and Hery are helping the team practice a lot. Also thanks to Woongjin's Hon_sin and Soulkey who helped me practice.
ForGG: The new Bo7s are being played very late, so I thank all the fans who helped cheer us on. In the future, if the fans keep supporting us, then we'll definitely go to GwangAhnRi again and win the gold to repay them.

Stats: [ForGG] was using a play today that he doesn't even use in practice [laugh]
ForGG: I don't normally play this safe. But today, I was really scared of something so I played conservatively.

Q: Out of the people who changed teams during the offseason, your success is the greatest.
A: I suddenly got a paycheck, and my environment changed a lot, and so my ambitions changed too (haha). I thought that if [T/N says 太菜, dunno what that means] wasn't OK, the thirst for success I had also gave me pressure, so I guess that was a serious motivator. [T/N ok wtf]


▲ 갑작스럽게 연봉도 받게 됐고, 환경도 달라져 생각이 많이 달라졌다(웃음). 못하게 되면 안 되겠다는 생각이 들기도 하고, 성적에 대한 긍정적인 스트레스도 많이 늘어난게 좋은 영향을 끼치는 것 같다.

I suddenly started getting a salary, and the environment changed a lot so i started thinking a lot differently (laugh). I started thinking it wasn't okay if I played badly, and I started getting a lot of positive stress regarding my record. I think this is a good influence on me.

Q: So Flash, what do you have to say about the strategy you have shown us?
I honestly didn't think it would work. I have been practicing my epic eye twitches lately, and decided to try the new and improved twitch in a live match. I almost began doubting myself but then I saw RuBy leave the game before the countdown ended.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

太 is very, and 菜 means vegetables.

Together, it means "too soft", or just "too noob".

The expression makes sense I guess, you are playing pretty badly if you're playing like a vegetable.

太菜 means "too noob", or something like that. It's slang.

▲ 突然拿到了年薪,环境也变了,于是想法变了很多(笑)。我想要是太菜是不行的,对于成绩的渴望也让我感受到了很多压力,这也是一种积极的影响吧。

Suddenly I got my salary, and the environment changed, so my mind also changed a lot. I thought that I can't be too noob, my thrist for performance gave me a lot of pressure, but it's also has a kind of positive effect.


Not too good with translation, but I'm 99% sure on what 太菜 means.

Edit: Damn, beaten.
