Yellow[arnc] (Park Myung Soo): "This is the best day of my life"
I will definitely win in the round of 4 to get to the finals.


[image loading]



-This is the first time in your life that you've reached the round of 4.
▲I am really happy to make it into the round of 4 for the first time. It's been 5 years since I've debuted as a progamer and to only make it to the round of 4 after all this time is a bit pathetic. I am very thankful towards go.go, who congratulated me lightheartedly after the games were over. Today is the best day of my life.

-You won against a teammate
▲Before the game started, we agreed to congratulate the winner with a laughing face, no matter who it was. I'm very thankful that he kept our promise.

-How were today's games?
▲I tried to play a very safe style in game 2, but for the final game I decided to play a game that fits my style. Although I lost the 2nd game, I wasn't shocked. I lost the pace of the game as soon as I got gas rushed. The way he took control of the game almost felt like go.go was physically pulling my body away. He really played very well.

-You've already beaten teammates several times before.
▲Since I've done it several times, it didn't feel that unfamiliar. It felt inevitable. There have been times when I've won and times when I've lost, but whether I lose or win, the winner has to be cold-hearted.

-The 3rd game was very dangerous for you.
▲I thought I lost. If a Terran puts on that much pressure, you have no choice but to play a low-economy game so I tried to keep calm and maintain my composure. I think that go.go relaxed a little, thinking that he won the game already. That's why I was able to capture the vultures so easily.

-You have to meet another teammate in the round of 4.
▲Since both players are very good, no matter who comes up, it will not be an easy victory. Until now, I've only been able to win in best of 3 games but the next round is a best of 5 series. Since I haven't been able to get to a finals in my long career as a player, I will try my best to get there.

-It must have been difficult to practice.
▲Since the proleague just ended, my teammates are on vacation and there are no available partners within my team. Therefore, it was difficult but I was able to split my practice time with go.go, so that they wouldn't overlap.

-Do you have any last words?
▲I am very exhausted, so I want to rest now. Since I was able to get such a good result, I want to just rest during my vacation and recharge my batteries properly. Therefore, I will be able to prepare for the upcoming Starleague round of 4, WCG and next season's proleague. I hope my fans will trust in me and watch me as I play.
My mother called me yesterday because she was worried. I would like to thank her for thinking about me, but I hope she believes in me and won't worry anymore.

Type-b(Moon Sung Jin): "I will defeat Myung Soo hyung (Yellow[arnc]) and make it to the finals."
I feel like I've passed a difficult turning point.

[image loading]



-It is the first time you've reached the round of 4.
▲When I first made it to the round of 36, I did not have any expectations. At the introductory ceremony I said that I wanted to win it all, but I didn't believe that I would be able to do it. I just thought to myself that I would win one game and now it feels a bit surreal that I am going up to the round of 4. I expect that the excitement of reaching the round of 4 will hit me as I lay down in my bed tonight.

-It must have been difficult to play against a teammate.
▲Of course, it was difficult. The pressure from playing against a player like Leta (Shin Sang Moon) was harsh. But Leta didn't play the way I expected today. I didn't even think about the chance of a no barrack double command but that's what he chose. Rather than going bionic, he tries to play mind games, but today he went for a macro fight at his natural.

-What do you think of Leta's decision to go bionic?
▲It is probably due to the fact that we are on the same team. Since we are teammates, I know his strategies better than anyone else, so he went for a build that only partially utilizes his favored strategy.

-The practice schedule must have been difficult.
▲Since we were in the same practice room, Leta surrounded the area around him with partition walls while he practiced. Justin (Won Jong Suh) and Miracle (Park Dong Soo) on Samsung helped me practice and I feel that their help played a huge role in my victory.

-How were today's games?
▲I prepared really well for game 2. I practiced against every Terran strategy and had to neglect game 3. In game 3, Leta concentrated on his tech tree and to counter that strategy, I was going to play a drone heavy game, but since he went for bionic again, I was confused. Therefore, I switched to a strategy that favors military strength so that I could break his natural, but since I felt that it wouldn't work either, I decided to go for drop play.

-Now you have to play against Yellow[arnc] in the round of 4.
▲Although I was able to defeat Leta, Yellow[arnc] is like a huge barrier blocking my way forward. If you look at it differently, you could even consider yarnc to be an even more difficult player to beat than Leta. Ordinarily, I don't have that much confidence in Zerg vs Zerg games and in practice, I haven't been able to beat Yellow[arnc]. But since it's only one more series before the finals, I won't be able to give him the game. I will practice intensely (he said until I die, which is an idiom) and make sure that I will definitely reach the finals.

-If you had one word of comfort you can say to Leta, what would it be?
▲I think that trying to comfort him would be even worse than his loss. Although I was able to show him an apologetic face for beating him last week, to do so again would be be difficult. All I can say is that I will practice enough for Leta's sake as well as mine own so that I can win in the finals. This is probably the only thing that would relieve Leta's mood.

-Do you have any last words?
▲I would like to thank the fans who are supporting a relatively unknown player and hopefully make it so that they won't think that it was a mistake for me to advance. I think that the most I can do is to simply show my best effort.

Fantasy (Jung Myung Hoon): "This season, I will prepare like no one else has ever done."
If we win in the proleague, I will be able use that excitement and win the OSL as well.

[image loading]



-You have been able to reach the round of 4, 3 seasons in a row
▲Strangely, I have been able to reach the round of 4 many times. However, I want to win it all for sure this time.

-You had to defeat your own teammate, Go In Kyu (Canata).
▲Although we practiced as teammates and saw each other play, it was okay for the most part. Probably because Canata has more tournaments to prepare for than me, it was easier for me to win.

-How was today's game?
▲At first, I was able to block his attack and it almost started to seem easy, but I started to feel a little pressure from that point. Therefore, I tried to go for a more defensive game. Since I felt so pressure, I let enough mana build up for 5 scans, but after I used all of them, I could see the entire map and felt like I could relax and play more safely.

-Now it feels like you will be able to prepare for the proleague more comfortably (at ease).
▲After I entered the team, both I and my team haven't had any victories yet. If we win in the proleague, the excitement will motivate me and I feel that I will be able to win in the finals.

-You will play against the winner of aedong vs Zero (Kim Myung Woon) in the round of 4.
▲Since I have lost in the finals (in the Batoo OSL) before and since In Kyu hyung (Canata) lost to him (in the Avalon MSL), I want to get my revenge on Jaedong. I want to defeat Jaedong and make everyone fearful of Sk Telecom Terrans players.

-Lately, there have been many games between teammates. Does it have any effect on the teams?
▲I don't feel like there have been any negative repercussions due to team kills. Everyone is concentrating on the Proleague and since all the team kills are now over, we will be able to concentrate solely on the Proleague. Although we had to be separated because we were playing in individual leagues, now that it's over, we can all get together and prepare for the proleague together.

-In the past 2 seasons, your team was able to win in the semifinals. Do you have confidence in victory this time?
▲I really want to win this season. Our will to win is different from that of the other seasons. We will definitely win.

-Do you have any last words?
▲I want to thank the terran players that helped me practice and after the game, In Kyu hyung's (Canata) facial expression was bad so I will buy him something delicious to help lighten his mood.

Lee Jaedong: "If I get to the finals, I will definitely win it all."
I will win the proleague as well to make it all "The Week of Jaedong".

[image loading]




-This is the second time in a row that you made it to the round of 4.
▲I am very happy. Since I won last season, there was much pressure for this season as well. I tried to break the winner's curse and thankfully, there was a good result for me. I thought that all I had to do was to reach the round of 4 and I would win it all, so I am confident.

-Because you have games daily, it must have been difficult to practice.
▲I have been practicing for the proleague almost non-stop. I practiced for the individual league in my own time. After the official time for practicing was over, I cut into my sleep time to practice for my game. At my last fan meeting, I said that my goal was to definitely win and I tried hard to keep my promise. Because this week was a turning point, I was happy that I won.

-How were today's games?
▲I feel that I was able to win because I had a lot of luck on my side. I was able to make a situation in which I definitely wouldn't lose and so I even made a sunken to stay on the safe side.

-Now you have to participate in the proleague playoffs.
▲Tomorrow is the day where all our efforts for an entire year come to fruition. Therefore, the desire to win is huge. I practiced much more for tomorrow's games than I did for today's or yesterday's games. Although I was able to advance in both individual leagues, if we lose in the proleague, I will be heartbroken. Since we prepared very well, I believe that we will be able to have a good result tomorrow.

-You have to face Jung Myung Hoon (Fantasy) in the round of 4.
▲Since I have defeated him in the finals last time, I'm sure that Fantasy will prepare for this series with gritted teeth. But I will also practice just as much as he will and make sure that I'm completely ready. Since I believed that all I had to do to win it all was to reach the round of 4, I will entrust everything to that confidence.

-If you win this time, you will be able to get a Golden Mouse.
▲I definitely covet that prize. Although I am very greedy for it, I am trying not to think about it. I will just consider the Golden Mouse as something that just naturally follows after I win, so that I can concentrate wholly on winning.

-Do you have any last words?
▲The fans have been very worried about me. Since I have been playing many games in the proleague, they worried that I might carelessly leave out the individual leagues but since I have advanced, I will show my good form in the round of 4. Since the very important proleague is left, I will make this week the "Week of Jaedong".

Haha, thanks for the translations.

Typo fix please:

heatbroken. Since we prepared very well, I believe that we will be able to have a good result tomorrow.


I say this only because Heartbreak Ridge => Heatbreak Ridge is such a funny typo.

If (T)fantasy can get passed (Z)Jaedong, he'll finally get his OSL. The sad thing is, I don't think he will.
