Interviews thanks to CryingPoo!

oGsMC

Q : How do you feel being in the Round of 16?

MC : I feel sorry to Hyperdub. But now I am in the round of 16 again, I will not show disappointing games like the last season.

Q : This is the second time you took down Hyperdub

MC : I feel worse as he is a good friend of mine. However there is not much I can do except for buying him a nice dinner and help him for the up/down matches.

Q : Seems that you have personalized your build orders?

MC : I tried to do the safest opening as possible. The latest trend for Protoss is to mainly use Collosis. But I only made three of them and focused on getting other compositions.

Q : Did you think your games work out well today?

MC : I enjoy blink chasing units and using forcefields to block the route. I am glad that I was able to show both of them today.

Q : What do you think about the new maps?

MC : Before the new maps I think Terrans played easier games. Now it is time for them to stop complaining and realize how easy it was to be a strong Terran player. I don't think new maps favour one race hugely. I think Cravasse favours Terran. The natural expo has only one gas and Terran does not need as much as gas compared to other races. I think I will eliminate Cravasse first for my next PvT.

Q : Who would you like to face in the round of 16?

MC : I have never lost to both Clide and Byun so it does not really bother me who advaces. I am ok with whoever but Zenio. Zenio also said he'd rather face MvP so we will see about that.

Q : Any last words?

MC : I had a flu. I want to thank my coach oGsTheWind for giving me some medicines. I thank Ji-Hoon who also helped me to recover. Also I thank Man-Hyuk Cho and Yun-Sick Choi for helping me practicing.

ST_July

Q : How do you feel after advancing?

July : I had a hard time today. Suppose there is nothing easy though. I was determined to advance with two wins but after I lost my first match, I thought to myself 'I have to face those monsters again...'

Q : Are you disappointed about that first match?

July : I took my second expansion too fast, I was pumping out drones. I lost without a fight.

Q : You won both matches against IMMvP

July : I had another build order prepared for him but I did what I did to see how it would work out. You can call me a bluffer if you want to though (laughs) but in the last match, I planned that.

Q : Seems like you were sure about your winnings

July : Making quick Banelings and Zerglings without making a Queen make this build order. If I do not allow my opponent to scout that and if Terran goes double expo after the first Barrack, I think it's an instant win.

Q : Who do you want to face in the next round?

July : I want to avoid Clide. But I want to face Byun. I want to pay him back.

Q : What is your goal?

July : I wouldn't say to win anymore (laughs). I do not like being down or like that so I always try to be confident. Now my goal is to take a successful step each.

Q : Last words?

July : I thank my teammates who helped me to practice and to fOu team as well.

Byun

Q : First of all, what do you want to say after advancing to the round of 16?

Byun : Good, especially this is my first win in Code S

Q : Did you have any special build order prepared for Zenio?

Byun : Not much. I practised it yesterday and thought it could win Zenio

Q : The game had very up and down moments, how did you feel?

Byun : It was strange at the beginning, but I did not expect Ultralisks to be out so I had a hard time.

Q : When were you sure about winning the match?

Byun : When I destroyed his 5 o'clock expo then straight after when Zenio attacked into my base

Q : Did you prepare Ghosts in advance?

Byun : Yes, I used them on Infestors and they were good. So I used them.

Q : Who do you want to face?

Byun : JulyZerg. I have beaten him once before as well

Q : What is your goal?

Byun : My final goal is to win Code S. And I want to get myself a puppy and to do that I have to be in the quarterfinals.

Q : There is a match between Zenio and Clide, who would like to see advancing?

Byun : I wish Clide wins the match so I can compete him for the first place.

Q : Any last words?

Byun : I thank Gang-Ho Hwang from IM, and Hyun-Seung Tak from MVP and my teammate Jong-Hwan Choi and other fOu team players including In-Su Lee


[image loading]

Clide

Q : How do you feel advancing into the next round?

Clide : I was glad previously now I feel bit numb

Q : You seemed like you had a hard time against Zenio

Clide : He had a better position. I thought he plan to gain more advantage by going into macro games but he attacked me. It was not really the right time to attack so I asked myself 'why is he doing this?'. Zenio is the guy who likes to use Hive units really well so I was worried but I guess I got lucky

Q : Idra left Korea. What is your honest opinion?

Clide : I hope he did not leave the country because of me. I was very rude to him. I hope he did not get a bad impression of Korea because of me. If he comes back to GSL and I have a seed to give, I would defintely choose him.

Q : What about you go overseas to compete?

Clide : If I have a chance I would love to. I recently found out that there are a few foreign fans out there. Through TeamLiquid my game play was casted and I got good feedbacks which surprised me. I am happy that the other side of the world know me.

Q : You will have a game against July, you mentioned earlier that you do not want to face him. I guess you could have taken the game against Byun lightly to avoid him?

Clide : That is what I did. To be honest I think Byun did the same (laughs)

Q : How would you rate July?

Clide : He is really good especially during the tournaments. His judgement is different from any other players.

Q : What is your goal for this season?

Clide : I want to advance into the round of 8. There is just something different to it than the round of 16.

Q : Any shoutouts?

Clide : Young-Un Park coach from SKT1 gave me really good advices for me to become a progamer. I changed my mind because of his advices. He said to me that everybody gets nervous so all you need to do is enjoy the game. I thank my TSL coach Woon-Jae Lee, he always looks after me. I also thank 동래구ProS who helped me behind and Gang-Ho Hawng form IM and to Won-Ki Kim (FruitDealer)

Lol. Does Clide actually think that way? When i heard his interview live i thought he was joking/trolling.

It's nice to see how all these people are gonna miss IdrA though. Like him or hate him, he brings a whole different colour to the Korean progaming scene

Woah, Clide's response about Idra caught me off-guard and even made me feel a bit moved.

Thanks for the trans ;3

As I said on my stream thousand times, most of the things between Korean progamers and IdrA were kinds of story-making, and actually it worked. Those stories made me excited.

Clide being adorably mannered about IdrA :D It's great to see more Koreans becoming aware of how big the foreigner scene is and how many fans they have outside Korea ^^

Also, Byun vs July rivalry developing? SOUNDS AWESOME :D And I think Byun is my new favourite Terran, I love it when players from smaller teams do well in big tournaments.

I think these were the ideal results for today imo ^^

Thanks for the interviews (gief pics though )

Hey, I'm quite new here and I searched in the forums but I didn't find anything about that.

What happened exactly between Clide and Idra ? Did they fight ? :D

If he isn't trolling, then that is sickeningly nice of Clide.
