Zero, “I want to act more openly”
[TN : actual translation would be proud, but doesn’t really fit this situation]
Woongjin Stars’s ZerO was a nominee for the title of ‘most-lose’ king. He does not have double digit losses yet but with 9 losses, he has more losses than wins. Even with those stats, Woongjin Zerg has the most zerg wins and the best zerg win rate. This is because of Kim Myung Woon’s (ZerO) junior Kim Min Chul (Neo.G_Soulkey) is doing excellent with a 10 win 3 loss record. Zero says, “Soulkey is carrying the team for us at the moment, I want to perform well and lessen the load on Soulkey and play confidently”.
Q. You complete the reverse sweep.
ZerO – I’m happy I can continue the team win streak. I talked with Kim Yu Jin (sHy) yesterday we talked about how if we entry together in a row that we both had losing streaks, we found a common point between us. So today’s game we talked about the possibility of another reverse sweep, I’m happy we made that.
Q. Today is your birthday. (Happy Birthday Zero!)
ZerO - If you live in dorms a long time, you don’t feel much emotion on these types of days. I don’t think birthdays are special days at all. Just a day that we have a match on.
Q. Your feeling when you were down 0-2.
ZerO – Our Terran players have been doing well but seeing them lose, it happens to the best of us. Today I was put into set 5, I was worried I would not get a chance to play. Honestly I want to continue playing and recover my win rate to 50%.
Q. The reversal started with Neo.G_Soulkey.
ZerO – I knew that these two players would win for me. I trusted them because they were both good. Don’t they have better records than me? (heheh:/)
Q. You played with Kim Sung Hyun (Last) in the final set.
ZerO – His TvT is top notch but comparing that to his TvZ, it is a bit weaker than his TvT. He is not a bad player so I did not lose focus.
Q. Was it a planned empty base attack?
ZerO – The Terran’s strategy today, has a lack of barracks so his bionic army was low. If I tried a bust on the natural I would have lost but since I detoured I thought there would be an opening so I forced my rush in.
Q. After you won, what was Neo.G_Soulkey’s response?
ZerO – In the beginning I made a few mistakes. When I entered the bench he pointed that out right away. In the beginning I could not resource management well he sharply criticized me for that. Really he is a great player.
Q. With Woongjin’s 4 game win streak, you are at 3rd place. Do you see making the Post Season?
ZerO – We still have 5 games left to play. This is not a situation to relax. I will try to do even better with the games left. Instead of going inside the top 4, I want 1st or 2nd.
Q. Your next game is with SK Telecom T1.
ZerO – This season in 1st/2nd round I lost to Jung Myung Hoon (Fantasy) twice. This time I will win easily and I will contribute to our team’s win.
Q. Any last words?
ZerO – Our Zerg line has most wins and best win rate. I don’t have a 50% win rate but Neo.G_Soulkey leading the way, put us at 1st. I want to have a good record and become proud of it.
