Winner: Woongjin Stars!

Zero, free: "We'll continue to put in our best efforts."
"We want to want to fulfill our fans' expectations."

[image loading]


On November 10th, Woongjin's 'one-two-punch' Zero and free each won their respective matches.

(Z)ZerO defeated (Z)HoeJJa and (P)free defeated (P)Tempest.

Q & A:

- Your thoughts on winning?
Zero: Yet another ZvZ! I was sort of shaky throughout the match, so I'm not satisfied. I need to play better next time.
Free: I played a very disappointing game recently, and I think the effects carried on to today's game as well. There were many disappointing moments on my part. I'm glad to have won the match but I hope to show a much better play in the future.

- The impact of losing to a dramatic comeback by Light must have been huge.
Free: I wanted to show off a bit and the game started slipping away. I knew that I shouldn't have done so but I let my guards down too soon. Back to today's match, I thought I was going to lose again but I got lucky. I need to fix my mind soon and maintain my focus throughout the entire game. I'm rather loose these days, not at my best condition... I suppose that explains my plays lately. I haven't been physically beaten in the team yet, but if that's going to straighten me up, I want to get beaten up (laughs).

- It was a hard-fought comeback win.
Zero: Thankfully I came out with the win, but I can't get over my mistakes yet. I underestimated my opponent's zergling push and that resulted in the loss of my spire. Should the game have followed 'regular' trends, I would have surely lost - so I imposed a change by going to hive tech. I prayed that he wouldn't attack me while I wasn't ready. After the match, Hoejja told me that he didn't have many mutalisks during that time.

- Commentators have been saying "it's just free that has to do well, and then the team can take it all."
Free: I suppose that comes with the weight I carry in the team. During my 5-year stay in this team, I haven't produced exceptional results but I've been consistent so I know the expectations are always high. I'll take that as a supportive message and try my best to meet those expectations.

- Any last words?
Free: I've been disappointed at myself lately. However, I also found and revisited the many reasons that I have to win. I can't reveal the details, but there's been an addition to the reasons recently. Most importantly, I give my best for the fans.
Zero: Last season I crumbled suddenly at one point, and I hope that it won't happen again this season. My priority is to remain consistent. I'm also kind of curious about what Free just said regarding that one additional reason... whatever it is, I hope that reason goes a long way! (laughs)

-----

Really, PianO: "We hope our team will perform even better as we continue to learn from each other."
Really: "I wish the best for Action when he plays against other teams."

[image loading]


On November the 10th, Woongjin Terran line of Really and PianO completed the victory against KT.

(T)Really defeated (T)fOrGG and (T)PianO defeated (Z)Action.

Q & A:

- Thoughts on winning:
Really: I'm happy that we continued our winning streak with ease today.
PianO: I can't remember the last time I was interviewed because it was so long ago. I honestly don't know what to say.

- It's an amazing feat for Woongjin Terrans to be interviewed together.
Free: When Really first joined the team, I thought he was super good. It turned out that he's not as good as I thought, haha. Still, now that he's winning, I see that there's lots to learn from him.
Really: It's because of the long break before the season's start. Now I'm going to kick into serious mode. You see, it's the televised matches that count. The reason I didn't perform very well in practice games is to boost my team's confidence while making our opponents underestimate [me]. (laughs)

- It's been a while since you were last interviewed.
PianO: Last time, I earned a win but couldn't be interviewed because the team lost. I'm not bitter about it but I was hoping we'd win that time. This season, we must take 1st place in the standings. It's a long road ahead, so we'll need to control our pace throughout.

- 3 consecutive wins following 3 consecutive losses.
Really: It's a new team, the .500 curse is no longer with me. I've transitioned fully into the new team and now I'm going to continue my winning streak.

- Do you have more responsibilities as a captain?
PianO: The coaches wanted me to be a leader in terms of the team's atmosphere, not the results. It's not like I can say this and that about results in front of free and Zero anyway. As a captain, I should practice the hardest so that the team can follow my example. I'm glad that all of the teammates have been compliant so far. Actually, free's a bit of a deviant, but he's the most senior player so I believe he'll manage himself well.

- Comments on the matches?
Really: I was confident no matter what my opponent did. I had a build order advantage as well.
PianO: My teammates were quick to criticize my unit control. They added that I would have closed out the game faster if I controlled my units better. Seems like one of my screws in my head came loose in the match.

- Since you two have contrasting styles (Really is better at mech, PianO is better at bio), is there a synergistic effect between you two?
PianO: I've learned many new aspects of mech-play from Really so I actually want to play a Protoss but I keep running into Zergs.
Really: There were lots of things to learn from PianO as well, especially the bionic-based TvZ. Plus, when you practice against Woongjin Zergs, you're bound to get better at the match-up.

- Any last words?
PianO: (T)SaiR is a good player so I'm sorry for his loss today. Hopefully his skills will see some light in the future. Also, WooYoung [T/N: a B-teamer?] has been sick lately but I never really got to take care of him. He got hospitalized today. He's a good looking guy so as soon as he's better, he'll make a big impact when he makes his debut. Lastly, Woongjin Terrans fighting!
Really: There's sort of a dual-emotion here: I was happy to see PianO win but I was sad to see (Z)Action lose. I wish the best for Action when he plays other teams.

BONUS: Interesting bits from DES

Q: Zero said Really is really manly. What's the meaning behind this?
PianO: It means that he's cool and manly, duh. When we demand food, he buys food, no excuses. It's a compliment (laughs).
Really: Please don't interpret it 'that' way (laughs).

I checked the source again and it's Free.
I'm guessing they were all sitting together and Free jumped in for a silly comment. =P
