Storm Zerg, (Z)YellOw, creating a positive mood with his intense practice and training.
Anytime: "First time I've seen someone practice even harder than Jaedong."


[image loading]


Air Force ACE's youngest member, 'Storm Zerg' YellOw has been creating a positive atmosphere amongst the team members by practicing heavily.

YellOw joined the ACE team on the 24th November 2008 last year, and has been active as a national serviceman, and the youngest member of the ACE team. Although GoRush, who entered the national service on the 16th of February, 2009 is to join the ACE team just a few days before the start of Round 4, YellOw still has to serve (?) 8 seniors who joined the army before him.

It is most likely due to this reason that YellOw has been practicing greatly with overwhelming determination, picking up the team's mood.

YellOw has been consistently ranking high in the intra-team ranking competitions, and has been said to be practicing tremendously, possibly even outpracticing Jaedong, who has recently won his second OSL.

Anytime, who joined the army two months ahead of YellOw and had a meal with Jaedong before his entry into the army stated that 'it was the first time he had seen someone practice even harder than Jaedong", when asked to talk about YellOw's practices.

Air Force ACE is practicing hard for Round 4, not just YellOw, but the newest recruits as well. ACE coach Yoo Sung Yul said that "these players, who performed amazingly in the past, and afterwards fell into a slump, are doing so much to liven up the atmosphere of the team", and that "they seem to have returned to their former state". He also added that the "players look more determined, like when they first made their debut, and the fire in their eyes seems to be burning much more fiercely".

Coach Yoo said that "the newest recruits are putting in a great amount of effort", and that the team "has high hopes for them to perform well in Round 4 of the Proleague".

As though to display their change, Air Force ACE has sent out all four of their newest recruits for games 1 to 4, for the match versus CJ Entus on the upcoming 13th of April. YellOw is to play against Much for the second match.

With ACE's members practicing greatly, the big question is whether the Four Musketeers (Anytime, Casy, YellOw, Reach) can succeed in getting the team out of their recent 9-game loss streak.

폭풍 홍진호, 엄청난 연습량 바탕으로 팀 분위기 견인
2009년 04월 10일 00시 36분

[포모스=심현 기자]오영종, “이제동보다 더 열심히 연습하는 선수 처음 봤다”

[image loading]


공군 에이스의 막내인 ‘폭풍’ 홍진호가 4라운드 개막을 앞두고 엄청난 연습량을 바탕으로 팀 분위기 상승을 이끌고 있다.

지난 2008년 11월 24일 입대한 홍진호는 팀의 막내로 군 생활과 공군 에이스 활동을 병행하고 있다. 2009년 2월 16일 입대한 박태민이 4라운드 개막 직전 팀에 합류할 예정이긴 하지만, 홍진호는 자신보다 먼저 입대한 선임병을 무려 8명이나 모시고(?) 있는 상황이다.

이 때문인지 홍진호는 최근 엄청난 연습량과 넘치는 의욕으로 열심히 훈련하면서 팀 분위기를 이끌고 있는 것으로 알려졌다.

홍진호는 최근 펼쳐진 공군 에이스 자체 랭킹전에서 상위권의 성적을 꾸준히 유지하고 있고, 특히 엄청난 연습량은 타의 추종을 불허하고 있다고. 홍진호의 연습량은 최근 2번째 스타리그 우승으로 현존 최강임을 입증한 ‘폭군’ 이제동(화승)을 능가한다.

홍진호보다 2개월 먼저 입대한 선임병이자 입대 전 이제동과 한솥밥을 먹은 경험이 있는 오영종의 말에 따르면 “지금까지 이제동보다 더 열심히 연습하는 선수는 처음 봤다”는 말로 홍진호의 연습량에 혀를 내둘렀다는 후문.

공군 에이스는 홍진호뿐만 아니라 최근에 입대한 선수들을 중심으로 의욕적으로 4라운드 개막을 준비하고 있다. 공군 유성열 감독은 “화려한 전성기를 보낸 이후 부진에 빠졌던 선수들이 군에 들어와 훈련소 생활을 거치고 생활하면서 초심으로 돌아간 것 같다”며 “최근에 선수들이 눈빛이 달라졌고 마치 데뷔 초기에 활동하는 것처럼 의욕이 넘친다”고 말했다.

유 감독은 “최근에 입대한 선수들이 굉장히 열심히 노력하고 있기 때문에 팀 분위기에 미치는 영향이 크다”는 말과 함께 “앞으로 시작될 프로리그 4라운드에서 신병들에게 거는 기대도 크다”고 덧붙였다.

이를 증명하듯 공군은 오는 4월 13일에 열리는 신한은행 프로리그 08-09 4라운드 첫 경기 CJ전에서 1세트부터 4세트까지 출전 선수를 모두 최근에 입대한 네 명의 선수들로 구성했다. 홍진호는 2세트에서 박영민과 격돌할 예정.

최근 프로리그 9연패에 빠져 있는 공군이 엄청난 연습량으로 팀 분위기를 이끌고 있는 홍진호를 비롯한 신병 4총사를 앞세워 연패 탈출에 성공할 수 있을지 귀추가 주목된다.

ACE is going to win at least 3 games this Round of PL. There isn't any doubt in my mind.

Losing to Skyhigh in the finals isn't really something to be ashamed about.
Remember also he beat predicted top protoss (lol) GuemChi in the semi's 2-0 as well.

I have noticed that ACE has been doing rather well in the MST and GOM. It will be interesting to see if they can finally produce some worthwhile results.

It's not a practice time issue but a practice partner issue, according to Boxer.
