A minimalist thread

[image loading]

KT crushes eSTRO 3:0


+ Show Spoiler [Interview with Flash] +

Flash defeated If.Classic to gain the first win


- You were part of your team's win.

▲ I think my opponent was nervous as it was his debut. Therefore I won quite easily. I wish If.Classic doesn't get nervous like today in his next matches.

- You were not too burdened to face a new player.

▲ I would have been less nervous if I faced a verteran like upmagic. I was nervous at the prospect of losing to a newbie.

- You won after dealing with opponent's strategic play.

▲ I saw his base with my rax and knew he built his starport elsewhere. So I played accordingly.

- It's the first win for Park Chan Ho combination.

▲ I think it's the first time winning in such combination. The coach was really pleased. I hope for more wins to come from this combination and all the players to enjoy the win together.

- There are four games left.

▲ All the remaining teams are strong so we have a long way to go. I expect tough matches. We must put in good performance not only to chase post season playoff places but to prepare for the next season.

- You have your first OSL game in 2 days time.

▲ I have a build ready to use in Heartbreak Ridge so if everything goes to plan then it will be ok. I will do my best to ensure victory.

- Words for the fans.

▲ I want to repay the fans cheering for me so I am putting a lot of effort in but I'm not there yet. I feel I need to win (a tournament ?) to do so, and this season I will reach that target (to win ??!?).


+ Show Spoiler [Interview with Never_V_] +

Never_V_ neutralised UpMaGiC's threat and continued the win


- You suceeded in ending 5 match losing streak in Proleague.

▲ It's fortunate that I ended v Protoss losing streak in MSL recently, as well as Proleague losing streak.

- You must have been pressured from the losing streak.

▲ After my first defeat I felt burdened so I became nervous. Because of that I lost games which I wouln't lose. Today I tried my best not to be nervous

- What do you think is the reason for your current loss of form?

▲ When I transfered (to KTF), I was under the spotlight so I became more nervous than usual. So I started to lose and eventually fear of losing crept in which contributed to the losing streak.

- You won with the wraith tactic.

▲ I practiced with the opponent's build in mind and he did just that.

- You mistakenly attacked the wrong starting position after misunderstanding of the opposition main.

▲ The opponent's attack came from above so I rushed my units above but it wasn't the case. I thought I was in trouble and changed the attack direction. I was thinking I lost but my teammates afterwards said I attacked in the 'wrong' time and did more damage.

- It's the first win for Park Chan Ho line up.

▲ Park Chan Ho's first win has been delayed because I haven't been play well. In the future, I will put in the effort for this combination to bring more wins.

- Remaining four teams are strong.

▲ I believe it's my fault the team is in this situation and I'm really sorry. If I am selected to appear in more games I won't make mistakes and play perfectly to win.

- Words for the fans.

▲ It's my first win in a while. From now on, I will work hard to be in a winning streak, not a losing one.


+ Show Spoiler [Interview with Practice] +

Practice beat off Hyvaa's challenge to ensure team's victory


- You won after an intense match.

▲ In the previous game, I was angry because I lost a game which I shouldn't have. So I worked hard not to be complacent. I prepared for this game more than any other.

- You were in danger from the ling rush.

▲ I should have been in the favourable situation. A mistake lead me to understand my opponent's build late, which lead to that dangerous situation.

- You turned the game with scourges.

▲ I thought I was losing like this but I concentrated solely on scourge micro.

- It's the first win for Park Chan Ho line up.

▲ I thought the three of us would sweep victories but Never_V_ has been taking his time adjusting to the transfer and my form hasn't been good. So it was delayed. However, from now, Park Chan Ho is in gear (to bring more victories).

- Thoughts on the remaining games.

▲ We are not putting too much focus on post season play offs and preparing only for the upcoming games. We are preparing for the next season and it would be good to make the playoffs although we wouldn't be too frustrated if we don't make it. The remaining teams we have to face are strong but I want to show that we can beat them.

- Words for the fans.

▲ I'm called ‘희망고문’ (by the fans) and the fans are watching in anguish. I wish them to watch my games with ease, game by game.

Thanks for the translation, though, the minimalist approach is still greatly appreciated.

KT really should be a team that's in the top 3 positions of the proleague.. how the hell are they finding themselves at number 7 is just unbelievable. With 3 starleague winners and an awesome young protoss... they should not be where they are atm...

haha ironic that forgg won because he failed and attacked at the 'wrong' time.
I'm hoping for more violet interviews when he wins in the future, thanks for this one though.

Sorry, that should say "A mistake lead me to understand my opponent's build late, which lead to that dangerous situation."

Thanks for pointing that out.

Yeah, on paper they're one of, if not THE strongest team around(argument could be made fo CJ and STX being overall as good/better, and maaaaybe Hite with Horang/Arnc/Gogo/Leta/Hogil thing they've been running). Given the play of other 'top' protoss, Violet is looking more and more like the most dominant protoss in PL.

I really hope they make the playoffs. It'd be kind of awkward for their to be a PL playoffs with no Stork and Jangbi, but damn if KT hasn't stepped up and taken Khan's previously dominating role this round.
Remember Violet.

Nice a winners interview of other teams.

Park Chan Ho combo? Funny how they make it seem so special. Hoping for this combo to KO the other teams to the playoff.

Also what is Luxury saying here

희망 means hope and 고문 means like "stressful thinking" kind of
so im guessing it means the stressful hope, saying that he has the potential but is inconsistent
the dreamer, mantoss, storm zerg, the cowboy, the spark terran, the ultimate weapon...what more can i say? GO KTF

KTF has always been the on-paper invincible team.

I mean how do you lose with TheMarine/Goodfriend/Chojja/YellOw/Nal_rA/Reach/Sync

The thing about bought talent is that it rarely lives up to potential; following a lucrative contract [especially the multiple-year ones that seem so popular in progaming for god knows what reason] players are inclined to slump. See free of Woongjin for another example of this phenom.
