iloveoOv is one happy coach.

The Winners.


Surprise, Surprise! Somehow, Fomos decided to change their questions, and this time their questions are quite varied! This one will be much more interesting to read than the other previous interviews, so please read them! (Leave comments too )

+ Show Spoiler [Interview with Bisu] +

Bisu: "My skill comes from relentless training."
"I thought that as long as I defended well from harassment, I can win."


[image loading]


"The Revolutionist" (P)Bisu defeated (P)Boradori in the match against STX, held on the 10th of May at the MunRaeDong LOOX Hero Center.

The following is the interview with Bisu.

- You started off what will be your team's win today.
▲ Our team lost disappointingly last week, so I am disappointed that we could not achieve a 10-match winning streak, but we will start anew and work hard. I am happy to have played my part well.

- You have the highest wins.
▲ I am asked this question everyday so I have nothing to reply (laughs). Once there are 5 matches left then ask me this question again (laughs).

- How was your match today?
▲ My opponent spawned in a position which was good for him to harass. And as expected, it wasn't an easy match. I told myself not to get harassed, and it turned out well.

- There were dangerous moments.
▲ I lost my shuttle and I was in danger. But I had already mined a lot of resources, and also had two reavers, so I knew I could defend (his attacks).

- Your team has been on a roll lately.
▲ We are constantly winning so that goes without saying. That is the only reason. If we lose, we'll lose our momentum, but our coaching staff is doing an excellent job in keeping the players in tip-top condition, and that is why we are able to keep up this momentum.

- You have an amazing record. What is your secret?
▲ It is consistent practice, and not even resting during holidays. I also try my best to get into my dorm as late as possible. In order to improve on a weak match up, effort is required. In my case, my record against Terran isn't that good, but after joining SKTelecom, I learned many things. The team's Terran and Protoss players all have the foundations to play against all races. At first I could not understand how they could do it, but now I do. SKTelecom is indeed a strong team.

- Your next opponent will be (Z)EffOrt.
▲ I don't really care just because he is doing well. I saw the entries and I somehow felt that I can win all my matches this week. Heartbreak Ridge is a pretty good map for Protoss, so I am confident that I can do well, and I have even won Effort before, so I will remember that and play a great match.


+ Show Spoiler [Interview with Best] +

Best: "Now I feel alive."
"I was already prepared regarding what to do in case my nexus was destroyed."


[image loading]


"Monster Protoss" (P)Best defeated (T)Notice in the match against STX, held on the 10th of May at the MunRaeDong LOOX Hero Center.

The following is the interview with Best.

- You have been performing well in Round 4.
▲ I kept on hearing that I was only good against Protoss, so I am glad that I am winning against Terrans, and I want to win more games in Round 5.

- Your nexus at your expo was destroyed early.
▲ From that point onwards, I played based on my gut feeling. According to the amount of damage I received, I acted accordingly, but I didn't receive a lot of damage this time, so I went for a macro game.

- In your first battle, you lost heavily and faced a dangerous moment.
▲ My opponent's timing rush was slower than usual so I couldn't not handle it well. I felt that I could win the battle in the center of the map, but there were many tanks at the bank so I lost. But I was still in the lead. My opponent was aiming for a timing rush, so his upgrades were delayed while my arbiters were already out, so it was a pretty okay battle.

- How are you faring nowadays?
▲ When Round 4 started, everyone was performing well, and I started performing well in Round 4 after performing poorly in Round 3, so it feels very weird. I will work hard in order to continue winning.

- What thoughts came into your mind while you were in a slump?
▲ When my games didn't turn out well, I even thought about quiting, but nowadays I am starting to perform once again, so I feel alive (laughs). Because of such experience, I will be able to upgrade myself even further.

- Your next opponent is CJ's (T)sKyHigh.
▲ I once lost a game that I was ahead in, so this time I will definitely win and be ahead once more in our head-to-head score.

- The match against CJ will be a fight for the ranks, and hence it will be an important match.
▲ Nowadays, our team is confident that we will not lose to any team. That is why we are confident in our match against CJ. If I play my part and win, then I believe we can defeat CJ with ease.

- Any final words?
▲ 5th of May was my mother's birthday, but I forgot to give her a call so I am very sorry. I will conduct filial piety soon, so I hope she can just wait a little bit longer.


+ Show Spoiler [Interview with DaZurg] +

DaZurg: "I am disappointed in myself for my loss in the previous ace match."
"The player with better micro wins on Battle Royal."


[image loading]


"DaZurg" (Z)Thezerg defeated (Z)Modesty in the match against STX, held on the 10th of May at the MunRaeDong LOOX Hero Center and sealed his team's victory.

The following is the interview with DaZurg.

- Your thoughts on your win.
▲ I am glad to be the one who sealed the team's victory.

- You must have been very disappointed with yourself for losing the previous ace match.
▲ It was my first appearance in an ace match, and I felt very burdened. I was sent out by all my teammates who placed their trust in me, so my burden grew. My micro was still as per any other day, but overall the match didn't flow that smoothly.

- You were also eliminated from the OSL.
▲ In the past, I would lose my momentum but my mindset has now changed so I quickly overcame that loss. (Z)MuMyung coach helped me greatly.

- The way ZvZ games flow on Battle Royal is very varied.
▲ The one who makes that best decisions when decision-making is required, wins. There are so many things the opponent can do, so it is important to constantly scout and play accordingly. It is important to play mindgames, and there are so many variables. Also, due to the design of the map, the one with the better micro is with no doubt at an advantage.

- Your next opponents will be CJ.
▲ It will be a very important match so I will help a lot with practice. That is all I can do.

Hahhah "I get asked this everyday I have nothing to say" hahaha. Oh Bisu.
Also - instead of "If there is set 5 left then ask me this question again (laughs)." I think "Once there are 5 matches left ask me this question again" is more accurate.

Also, weird how they didn't ask thezerg 'any last words?'. Maybe they were in a rush or something, haha.

Great translations as always. Happy that Best is feeling alive.

That question actually got me baffled too, but "once there are 5 matches left" made no sense... Korean's such a bitch.

Yeah, DaZurg's interview was so short lol

It makes sense because he's basically implying it's too early to say anything, so once there are only about 5 matches left he'll have a more definitive answer. :p

I assumed end of proleague since the whole best individual wins thing is based on all 5 rounds. Could be end of 4th round too I guess.

Best and TheZerg are sitting the same way. Freaked me out when I scrolled down before.

And shame on you Best. You better call her today at least.
Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself. I am large, I contain multitudes.

When SKT wins due to its tosses and its zerg, while the single loss is brought by their ace terran, you know something's going wrong

It's Zerg, yes but Bisu has been consistently one of the best players for like 2 years. And it's not like Best is a chump either, although he's been out of form lately.

Also, fantasy can't win every game...even Jaedong can't pull that off, although for a player like him to lose to Hogil is rather embarrassing.

Although I am a huge sAviOr (and bonjwa) fan, even if he does come out, he still gotta deal with Bisu-BeSt-Fantasy combo the SKT1 are bringing so......
