MafiaZerg (Action)

[image loading]

You fought your way into the Ro16 for the first time. Thoughts?
▲ I'm not at my peak yet, so I'm only satisfied that I won.

You advanced after winning the final game.
▲ My opponent didn't anticipate that I'd fight with zerglings, but since I made micro mistakes, I didn't gain that much of an advantage from it. So I could only win with outstanding muta micro.

You lost game 1 to Sea.
▲ That map [Triathlon] is the most distinctive, so I practiced the most on it. I even considered that Sea would use Wraiths, but the thought that he'd use Valkyries didn't even cross my mind. This is something that I definitely should have thought of, but it's regrettable that I didn't.

Your next opponent is guaranteed to be a Z or a T. [T/N Action will be facing one of the guys from group C, I take it?]
▲ Even though facing a P would be the best, but this way no matter who I face it'll be the same.

Your losers' match against s2 could be considered a telecom company rivalry match.
▲ To be honest, I don't even consider rivalries in the individual or team leagues, but when a matchup like this actually happens I do become aware of it. Although this doesn't by any means represent our rivalry as a whole, I wanted everyone to see KT's zergs give SKT's zergs a run for their money, so I had to win unconditionally.

Did Flash help you practice?
▲ Barracks and Suny helped me practice the most, but Flash asked me to practice with him first yesterday. I already thought I had practiced sufficiently, but after I practiced with Flash, I thought “Wow, what have I been doing up until now?” Right now, I have no idea where my skill level is.

Did Flash take a serious blow after being eliminated from MSL?
▲ I watched those games too, and when I saw that Flash was eliminated, he did suffer, but in hindsight the impact wasn't big. When I saw him recover, I understood why he's been called a player who is always excellent [T/N “Bonjwa”].

Goal for the MSL?
▲ As a progamer, my ultimate goal has to be to stand on the finals stage, but considering my skill level right now, my current goal is to reach the Ro4. I'll work very hard.

Anything else?
▲ After the game ended and the winners handed out T-shirts, I gave all mine to one person, and I'm sorry to the fans. That particular fan was one who's been cheering for me the longest, so I gave the shirts to him. Next time, if I have the chance, I'll give shirts to other fans too. [T/N I'm not actually sure if there is more than one shirt]

Zero

Thoughts on advancing to the Ro16 2-0?
▲ I'm mired in a losing streak in SPL, so I arrived worried, but fortunately I still advanced 2-0. It's helped me calm down. Now that I've broken my losing streak, I'll do better in the future.

Can you offer an explanation for your losing streak?
▲ I guess playing BW for three years has worn me out; I really can't come up with any particular excuse, and that's even worse [T/N unsure]. But I've rediscovered my ability to win, and I hope I can keep winning.

You've always been a very condition-based player.
▲ If I keep losing, then in my matches I'm more worried. I'm a person who is easily unnerved, so under this situation I just get more nervous.

You chose to use zerglings in both games.
▲ I'm a management-based player, so my opponent usually expands comfortably in the opening. Because of that, once in a while I'll play like this. And today, I was pretty lucky: In game 1, I won thanks to my simcity, while in game 2 Sea evidently decided to go to 9 o'clock because he didn't think I'd pump zerglings after making an overlord.

In your game with Sea, you used a Queen to make an Infested CC.
▲ With an Infested CC, you can actually eat up the Terran's economy, so don't think of it as BM; it's useful! I don't know whether it was because I won or because I made an Infested CC, but Sea looked pretty angry after the game. I'm very fond of Sea, so I hope he isn't too hurt.

Recently, you and the team are both losing, so there must be a lot of pressure.
▲ Due to our 5 game losing streak, there's no way the mood can be good. Our team has gone through last year and the year before, so the team's atmosphere is truly bad. In these dark times, I hope our team can unite.

Who do you hope to face in the Ro16?
▲ It would be interesting to face Soulkey, but there's no way he'll advance, it's not possible. (haha) For Soulkey, getting a single win in his first MSL would be pretty good already. I don't really care that much about who I face.

Anything else?
▲ I'm on a losing streak in SPL, and the team is as well. Tomorrow our team will turn over a new leaf. To my teammates: Get two wins. I'll take care of the Ace, trust me. Although, to be honest, it would be best if it didn't get to the Ace match tomorrow (haha).

+ Show Spoiler +
[T/N: Goddamnit. Is it really that hard?]

Eagerly awaiting Zero's interview

And you are right about group C. Action will play the 2-0 winner from that group.

Edit: I threw the interview into google translate for kicks. Its pretty funny, and you can almost make out what he is saying. http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=zh-CN&tl=en&u=http://playsc.com/forum/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=219168&extra=page%3D1%26filter%3Dtypeid%26typeid%3D6

It's nice to see Action performing well; I hope he is able to recover back to his original form. Thanks for the interview! I was going to do it tomorrow but guess this saves the the time.

Eagerly awaiting ZerO :3

Ehh.. MafiaZerg? Is that what they call him now? MuffinZerg would be more suiting imo lol.
Anyways, he looks pretty damn confused after massing games with Flash. I hope he doesn't lose his confidence in zvt, that'll be bad.
