Gom's got some prematch interviews with the finalists

Finalist 1:
+ Show Spoiler +
IMMVP

How do you feel about advancing to the Final?

When I was practicing my win ratio wasn't that great so I was worried but I am happy that I have won.

What is your prediction for tomorrow?

Since it’s the Final I think it will be 4:2 or 4:3.

What are your thoughts on non-Korean players after playing against them in World Championship?

I think non-Korean players are really good. One careless move against them and you will lose the match.

Which non-Korean player left most impression on you? Why?

Sen from Taiwan. He is a very good player but also nice.

Your resolution for GSL May?

I start from Code A for next GSL but I will definitely advance to Ro8 and move up to Code S.

Anything you would like to say to your fans?

I want to thank you for encouraging me all the time and I promise to show you great games at the Final.


Finalist 2
+ Show Spoiler +
MarineKingPrime.WE

How do you feel about advancing to the Final?

I feel like I am dreaming since I just advanced to the Final by defeating the best pro-gamer.

What is the reason for your loss in set 1?

I have never faced MC’s double during practice and the nervousness from the first game made my head blank. I could have won the game if I have blocked the attack but due to the wrong judgment call, I took an expo at 6 o’clock and did not defend with a bunker. But mainly I lost because MC’s reaction and control were perfect lol.

What words went between you and your coach before set 3?

I was in a panic mode after losing the first two sets but the coach came and told me that I could win if I play as I practiced. He encouraged me by saying that I should forget about set 1 & 2 and start playing my game from set 3. He also told me that he believes in me. Thanks to him I came back to my senses and started playing well. And I believe that’s the reason why I won.

What is your prediction for tomorrow?

I lost to Mvp 4:0 at the GSL Jan. Final so I am going to beat him 4 to nothing for sure this time.

What are your thoughts on non-Korean players after playing against them in World Championship?

Before I played against them I thought they were not going to be that great due to my previous experience against non-Korean SC1 players. However, now I feel like the skill difference between non-Korean and Korean SC2 players is almost non-existent.

Which non-Korean player left most impression on you? Why?

Dimaga. He seems like a very good player from what he has shown us through World Team League and by defeating NesTea.

Your resolution for GSL May?

I promise to bring you high quality games with more excitement.

Anything you would like to say to your fans?

I truly thank you for cheering for me. I know you believe in me and I will try to be better than now and not let you down.

I have nothing against MKP but I'm hoping he loses just so we can start the Kong line in SC2. After all, it's his job to get second place.

Atleast he sound confident this time Here's looking forward to this coming through. I'd hate for it to go down 4-0 either way. 4-3

This time around I certainly don't see a 4-0 happening. MKP has practiced his non bio TvT a lot more since last time, and is riding a wave of confidence as he has defeated MC. Also, Mvp doesn't have the same aura of invincibility since going to code A, so MKP will feel less pressured to make unnecessary risks against Mvp's solid style.

I predict a 4-3 finish.. Could go in either player's favour.

I am really surprised that the Koreans talk about the non-Korean so well. Hope their will be more tournaments with both.

I think the games will be great anyway... from a spectators point of view I really love TvT, and MKP usually guarantees great /entertaining games. The 4:0 finals were kind of a bummer, but I think he is in a much better shape right now (and much more versatile, in the finals MVP was perfectly prepared for MKPs trademark style and just predicted pretty much everything.. I don´t think this is gonna happen again)

This finals will really show if MKP stands for MarineKingPrime or MarineKongPrime...

Nice interviews , it'll probably end 4-0 again but oh well , it's always fun to watch MVP.

Go MVP!
