Your winners, KT Rolster~

KT Rolster’s Hwang Byung Young ((T)BarrackS) “If it changed to Bo7”

[image loading]


If the season was played at a Best of Seven format, Hwang Byung Young ((T)BarrackS) could have had more chances and could have shown a better performance to the fans. His teammate Lee Young Ho ((T)Flash) even mentions “after the change to Bo5 the teammate who was affected the most was (T)BarrackS” he has shown growth during the off season.

After his bloody fight with No Jun Gyu ((T)hOn_sin) and coming on top, his face was not all positive. Because he hasn’t played in a long time, he would have liked to show a cleaner game but things did not go his way. With a tad disappointing face we interviewed (T)BarrackS in his first interview.


Q. You got your 1st season win, how do you feel?
(T)BarrackS – In the late season I’m happy to have gotten a win but there are lots of sad points as well. The team gave me a chance but I did not capitalize on it. I will forget the past and try my best to show good performance from now on.


Q. There was a lot of talk of you improving in the off season.
(T)BarrackS – I feel that I improved my game play and gotten more confident. But I have not played often in broadcasted games so my game senses may have dropped a bit. All in all a pro still has to show good performance when given the chance. (T)Flash’s words do give me strength but I grade my skills in broadcast games as a beginner, I’ll think of this as the start.


Q. You might have felt sad from the change to a best of five.
(T)BarrackS - I was really disappointed. After that announcement I hoped they would change back to a best of seven. I waited a long time but it did not change as I hoped. I knew that I would get an entry chance someday so I immersed myself in practice.


Q. You had a re-game. You must have been more nervous.
(Due to IP crashing by (T)BarrackS computer, they did a regame based on game state was arguably even)
(T)BarrackS – When I first came out of the booth I was in panic. I thought this was going to be severe but the coaching staff and the players made me feel calm. So I found my confidence again and played without being nervous.


Q. Your play was not perfect.
(T)BarrackS – After I had the advantage I felt a little pressure to rush ending the game. I did not mobilize my full army well and fought with brute force so it carried on for a long time. I feel like my play could have been much better. As I played, I felt like I need to improve on how to finish better when you have the advantage.


Q. In the post season it becomes a best of seven.
(T)BarrackS – Of course if I get the chance I will do my best but the team winning is the most important so I won’t be selfish.


Q. Show us your goal for the remaining matches.
(T)BarrackS – Our team can definitely beat any team, I do want to play by helping our team keep this 1st place. By getting more entry chances, I will do my best to improve my game play for the post season.


Q. Any last words?
(T)BarrackS – From the recommendation of the coach I’ve been getting some psychological treatment (most likely counseling). I think that helped a lot, and I felt a lot less nervous in today’s match so I’m very thankful. Also behind the scenes giving me advice continuously Kim Yoon Hwan ((T)Hery) coach, (T)Flash, and Park Sung Kyun ((T)Mind) I want to thank them.

I really like his TvT since he really prefers dropships over waiths. Also, Ive been wanting to ask this before but I keep on forgeting, its about the playoffs format. Half was already answered in this interview (Bo7 yay) but the other half of the question is weather there would be an ACE match or not. Anyone happen to know?

Thanks for the translation. ACE pls beat khan tomorrow! lol.

That's awesome news, I hope there is also an ace match. The playoffs just would not feel right with bo5.

I've always thought that barracks has a lot of potential and I've seen games where he has incredible control!

I see great things for him in the future!

Especially since he's getting advice from both Flash and Mind!

Bring back bo7! (not just post season)

Checked fomos, des, kespa site, naver search engine but only with the confirmation from this interview as a Bo3 match of a Bo7 set. I hope they bring back ace match for P.O's as well.

What, you don't remember the drama from the last MSL using Pathfinder twice in the finals? (Not the fact it was being used twice, but rather it was seen as the worst of the four maps).

They'll just use one map again in the 7th game.

OSL....plus proleague never uses the same map twice, which is why I showed concern.

He looks a lot like John Juanda, the poker star.
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

Flash is really supportive.
Bo11 would be the best format. Since every team has so many players who even don't play. It is just terrible. It is not like football where 11 people on the field.

Sea also needs some psychological treatment.
Bisu,Best,Stork,Jangbi and Flash, Fantasy, Leta, Light and Jaedong, Hydra, Zero, Soulkey assemble in ACE now!

Re: Sea

The problem for this season is the sparseness in games. Players like Sea/Stork historically relied on the solidness of their play whereas players like FantaSy rely on preparation. When both sides are only preparing for one game, build orders and specifically wonky timings are much easier to produce as a per game basis so FantaSy is disproportionally stronger this season than before.

Leta/Bisu are also more the Sea/Stork brand but they win more with the uniqueness of their play. It's very hard to replicate their style in practice. But again, with fewer matches to prepare for, it's easier on a per game basis to slightly adjust your style/expectations.

And then there's God.

I used to look forward to Winner Interview thread but it's a big disappointed lately, because they only interview one or two now. They used to interview all the winners from the winning team.

they still do, in fact they do more interviews now since they interview everyone who wins (even from losing team), the interviews are done right after the win during the replay

They do post game interviews during the match now, which actually works out really well because the game is fresh in the player's mind and with the replay on screen, the commentators can ask really specific questions.
The stars, like dust, encircle me. In the living mists of light; And all of space I seem to see. In one vast burst of sight.
