SlayerS-EG JYP&Ryung

[image loading]

Slayers is finally back in ro4 after 13 months.

Ryung> it’s only ro4 so it doesn’t feel any special. I think it will hit me only after getting to the finals. I don’t feel much yet.

You scored three kills as the starting player.

JYP> I thought I was the MVP with those three awesome kills. Then Ryung got it. I should be jealous but he finished the match off in such a great fashion that I couldn’t help but congratulate him.

They sent out a Terran in Set 2 after you took Set 1. How did that make you feel?

JYP> I’ve actually been under a lot of psychological duress lately. However, today I went in with a calm mindset. Then, due to sloppy play, I lost my natural. This brought back all the nervousness and pressure. The only reason I won was because I got a hold of myself afterwards.

You sent out a quick probe scout against Moon. Did you expect cheese?

JYP> I had a feeling he might. Before the match, the coaches told me to watch out for 6 pools on Entombed as well. I knew he had something ready and voila, the probe saw everything and I knew then that I had the game.

Your reason for going proxy 2 gate in Set 4?

JYP> I wanted to try it. Protosses just don’t scout lately. Oz is the same so I tried to go for an easy win. Then, he sends out a probe to scout. Again, I knew I had lost because of the scout.

This is your first time playing and you were the ace.

Ryung> I thought I would be sent out second last as well. Then Miya went out first. There was me and MMA left but I was confident so I volunteered.

Your banshee didn’t do much damage in the early game.

Ryung> I thought so too. Then, I got the feeling that my opponent had stuffed up his build because of the banshee. Even though I was supposed to be behind after the failed harass, I had no indication that I was. I could see that aLive was playing passively because his recent losses against me.

There was a bit of a crisis moment as your opponent launched his final attack.

Ryung> I agree but he wasn’t producing a lot of units in his own base. In contrast, aLive’s marines were slowly being whittled down so I knew I would win as long as I remained calm. If I had lost my cool, I would have lost.

Your ro4 opponent is your former team TSL

JYP> TSL’s line up consists mostly of Zergs. It’s my former team but I am confident in my PvZ and we will take this season no matter what. If I am sent out, I will go in with the aim of doing an all-kill. I want SlayerS-EG to be the first allied team to win the GSTL.

You take on TSL in ro4, how do you think it will go?

Ryung> I will be at MLG when this happens. I think this match depends more on our non-Terrans. We will have to practise to win. TSL Zergs are as strong as MVP. We will have to prepare absolutely thoroughly.

Anything to add?

Ryung> I was unexpectedly sent out as the ace tonight. I was originally planning to play as the third player and finish the match there. It was the ace game but I thought of it was an individual game and wasn’t too nervous.
I feel like I haven’t played well recently because of distractions. I will have to do some serious reflection tomorrow. Now is the hardest time for me as a progamer.

JYP> I have many friends on Fnatic. I’m happy about the win but also sorry to them. Also, my grandmother is unwell at the moment. I hope she gets well soon. My mother is also having a hard time because of this. Also, my sister is having her finals so I hope she does well. Lastly, I am studying for my high school certificate test myself and a friend is helping me out. I want to take this opportunity to thank that friend.

Thanks for the interviews. How can Ryung say he hasn't played well when he crushed DRG on Whirlwind in the best game this season?! Silly man. Always loved Ryung, have his signature on my boxer poster from november last year :3

Great job JYP and Ryung!

Slayers is really going to need JYP and MMA both in top form to take down the insane lineup of TSL Zerg.
Life is too short to take it seriously.

Thanks for the interview. Small correction, the last answer, you wrote both as being answered by Ryung, but the second part was JYP's answer.

Thx Sw!
Jyp did really play well today, had smart builds and used the current meta to his advantage. Slayers should prepare well for TSL though, they are like a perfected version of Fnatic!
