Its your first time in Code S RO8, how do you feel?

It feels good but my next opponent is IMMVP. I am worried a lot because its him (laughs)



Was it burdensome that the game was against Nada whom you were quite close with when you were in TL?

I didn’t have a lot of chance to meet with oGs players for a month as I had to participate in various foreign tournaments. I wasn’t burdened because I couldn’t practice with oGs players a lot.



Todays matches were very gripping

Actually I arrived in Korea yesterday. I felt very tired and even more tired after the game. But I am having a meal with Sase who is from Sweden after this match, so that energizes me.



It seems like you could have won 2nd game in Xel naga Fortress.

It was a mistake to attack. I didn’t know the exact number of SCVs Nada brought with him. I also didn’t know how much lead I head because I didn’t have a pylon to scout whether or not he had his 3rd expo up. But these things [mistakes] can happen during games.



There was also an announcement that you would be living with Idra and Puma in Korea.

Details regarding their stay in Korea are not finalized yet. But personally I hope we get some sort of a partnership with a Korean team as we want to compete in GSTL as well.



Terran’s 1-1-1 build is quite controversial at the moment, what do you think about it?

Terran’s 1-1-1 build is quite easy to execute and also has a large win rate. However, I had already made a solution to it few months ago. I sometimes lose to it but developing and trying out new builds are important. Other protoss players should do that too. I hope this statement don’t develop into a controversy as it may be too cocky.



MVP said that 1-1-1 is a very strong build.

I really hope he uses it to me (laughs).



Are you dreaming to be the first foreigner in the finals?

It is too early to say yet but I think I have the highest probability to make it to the finals from all the foreigners who had made it to ro8 before. Time will tell. But first, I need to compete in MLG.



Personally I think Huk is stronger than MC these days, what do you think?

(Laughs very loudly, then thinks for a bit) There were some talks between foreign fans that I will become worse when I transfer to EG as I won’t be able to get help from MC (laughs). I think MC is sad that I am transferring (laughs).



There are a lot of terrans this season, is that good for you?

I don’t like to talk about balance but I think Terran is stronger in TvP these days. Timing pushes are important in TvZ. On the other hand, this might be because there are many more Terran players than other players.



Your transfer to EG was a big issue in Korea as well. Are you satisfied with your transfer?

I didn’t know it was a big issue in Korea as well. I would like to read the comments if someone could translate them. I transferred to EG because they gave me a very good offer. I am sad that I have left TL but also thankful to EG for treating me well.



Are there any more things you want to say?

Thanks to fans in myeg.net –Team EG website. I would also like to thank many sponsors of my team. Finally I would like to thank my family and my fans.

i dont remember everything i said exactly but:

It feels good but my next opponent is IMMVP, I would rather play almost anyone else that made it into ro8;o well we will see.



Was it burdensome that the game was against Nada whom you were quite close with when you were in TL? (question was asked as if it was problem becuz he was ogs-tl and i was eg but cant remember exact question).

no not really, i mean we are friends and he doesnt live at the house. other then that i didnt have much time to practice beside last time even tho i was exhausted, i didnt practice with any ogs players either.



Todays matches were very gripping (wtf? dont even remember this) its not even a question...

Actually I arrived in Korea yesterday. I felt very tired and even more tired after the game. But I am having a meal with Sase who is from Sweden after this match, so that energizes me.

There was also an announcement that you would be living with Idra and Puma in Korea. (roughly correct)

Details regarding their stay in Korea are not finalized yet. But personally I hope we get some sort of a partnership with a Korean team as we want to compete in GSTL as well.

Terran’s 1-1-1 build is quite easy to execute and also has a large win rate. However, I had already made a solution to it few months ago when it was popular. I sometimes lose to it but only when you make mistakes and lose important units, but if you play near perfect first 10-15 minutes you should win automatically as well. Other protoss players should be able to counter it as well. I hope this statement don’t develop into a controversy as it may sound more cocky then it is.



MVP said that 1-1-1 is a very strong build.

I really hope he uses it to me (laughs).



Are you dreaming to be the first foreigner in the finals?

It is too early to say yet but I think I have the highest probability to make it to the finals from all the foreigners right now considering im code s and its really hard to get to code s. Time will tell. But first, I need to compete in MLG.

(Laughs very loudly, then thinks for a bit) There were some talks between foreign fans that I will become worse when I transfer to EG as I won’t be able to get help from MC (laughs). I think MC is more concerned about me leaving then i am as far as skill drops are concerned. (laughs)



There are a lot of terrans this season, what do you think?

I don’t like to talk about balance but I think Terran is stronger in TvP these days. TvZ is a lot more balanced imo, timing pushes are important in TvZ for terran as well tho. On the other hand there are also a lot more better players that play terran, zerg and protoss are underrepresented by players simply because a lot of players that play that race are worse in skill (compared to terran) as well.









rough memory/translation from 1am before i go to bed















Edit : added 2 more Q&A that I accidently left out



Edit 2: added Huk's comment!



[Translater note: I was thinking after writing this... how inefficient this interview was.

The interview questions would be translated into English.

Huk would answer with English.

The translater translates the answer to Korean.

Reporters of thisisgame.com writes down the Korean and quotes it on their article

And Finally I translate the Korean article back into English. ] Edit : added 2 more Q&A that I accidently left outEdit 2: added Huk's comment![Translater note: I was thinking after writing this... how inefficient this interview was.The interview questions would be translated into English.Huk would answer with English.The translater translates the answer to Korean.Reporters of thisisgame.com writes down the Korean and quotes it on their articleAnd Finally I translate the Korean article back into English. ] a
