Q. It's been a year since your last code S. How do you feel?



I'm thrilled to win code S again. I`ll prepare well and do my best for you guys.





Q. How did you feel when you realised that Bomber is your opponent?



I thought I got this. I`ve never been lost against Terran except TY and ByuN. I was confident; it did not seem to lose. Not because it was Bomber, but it was Terran.





Q. You made a whistle-blowing after match. Do you think balance issues are serious that much ?



Adepts are insane against Terran. You can take advantageous ground even if you failed to harass with it. Adepts are not only good at blocking scouts, but pressing Terran with its ability. When Terran sees WP, you must place your defense troops regardless of its intention.



However, I do not understand that Zerg players are having a hard time against Protoss. Except Dusk Towers or Orbital Shipyard, Zerg has it over Protoss. Because Zerg has tons of ways to harass Protoss, there are many games that Protoss defeated while defending against Zerg`s all-out attack.



Anyway, TvP is biased to Protoss, Absolutely.





Q. Do you think Terran can counter WP-Adepts strategy?



Many gosu Terrans wage mind games by taking fast double gases. This can counter Adepts, but it requires physical talents. Of course, even with that strategy, TvP is about 4:6. As you see, you cannot beat Protoss with your Cyclones.





Q. I heard that you deliberately abused Adepts in order to show your discontent against Blizzard balance team, right?



Somewhat.One thing is, they never listen our feedback. They`ve adjusted unrelated things since WoL. Every race needs nerf now. Liberators, Adepts, Zerg`s new units... Anyway, of course, they`ll do whatever they want. One thing is, they hardly ask things to progamers.





Q. Are you expecting all the reprimands from communities for abusing Adepts?



I`m not the one to be blamed. I`m not the one who made Adepts - I`m just one who used it. SC2 has problems, to say nothing of balance issues. It has chatting bugs and sometimes bronze leaguer meets grand master when one leaves league. I do not know what they are thinking, because it`s been two months that those bugs are neglected. I have so much thing to say, but they do not listen; that`s why I made an interview like that.





Q. You become eloquent.



(laugh) It`d been ages since I made my last interview. Maybe that`s why I`m talkative now.





Q. What`s your goal?



Ro. 8, for now. It'll be best if I win tournament again.





Q. Is there any player you want to play against?



I don`t know, because Code A is not finished yet. It doesn`t matter for now.





Q. It is true that MVP players practice a lot because Choya plays SC2 a lot?



I`m coach, but my amount of training is in the top 3 of my team; I`m the oldest one except Choya. Even I do this much; younger teammates also do their best, too.





Q. Say a word that you want.



Since Blaze`s father passed away, we`re in mourning atmosphere. I hope that he overcomes it. Thanks to Chickenmaru and Lotte-Chilsung for sponsoring us. Please keep support us, since we`ll give it back to our fans with our performances. I`d also like to say thank you to my mates, family members, teammates and fans.

Q You advanced. How do you feel?



I consider my opponent an amateur, so I`m not hyped. I was obsessed with all-ins in game 1 and 2, though Terran must be aware of them.





Q You wrecked in game 1.



I was so stiff, because I was possessed with my opponent.





Q Did you know anything about your opponent?



Everyone says that he always all-in. That`s what I was concerning about; He didn`t, actually.





Q Your opinion about balance?



People overlook one thing; even if Protoss is nerfed as DK suggested, Terran would lose. Even random Protoss player can win with WP-Adepts - and that`s not the only one that needs nerf. Adepts are only the tip of the iceberg. According to the interviews with Protoss players, they tend to win games too easy. I feel helpless, because I cannot do anything against Adepts. This is the worst balance I`ve ever seen.





Q. Is there any player you want to play against?



Anyone but Protoss.





Q. What`s your goal?



I`d like to aim high, but it is hard due to Protoss. Every Terran player has the same issue.





Q. Do you have anything needs improvement?



My APM is quite slow; I cannot control my resources. It`s been 3 years, and I cannot fix it. Because that makes Mech nonviable, I need to practice more.





Q. Why Mechanic is not viable?



Game is faster and resource depletes quicker. If I cannot fix my APM problem, I cannot use Mechanics. You cannot hold till combinations are changed, because it depletes so fast. Z and P`s mobility overwhelms that of Terran. Maybe Mechanic cannot be viable forever in LotV.





Say a word.



There`s one thing that Protoss needs: conscience. Stop lying in interviews.

Q. This is your first Code S. how do you feel?



I`m very glad, because this is my first time that I won qualifications.





Q. What were you thinking after you confirmed your opponent?



I thought my opponent was strong. However I thought it was OK because I`m good at playing against Protoss,





Q. You only used Ravagers. Is there any reason?



I tried various builds, but that one had the highest winrate. I tried to be aggressive.





Q. Seems MVP is doing well. Any particular reason?



Since Choya practices a lot, everyone is a bit concerned. Of course, LotV fits in, too.





Q. Does Lotv fits you, too? I mean, more than WoL or HotS?



I thought I was good at Hots, but I could not prove myself; I believe I can do better this time.





Q. Any favourable opponent?



No one except Terran. Terran is very hard to play against, because of reapers, Liberators and Ghosts. Zerg cannot take dominance.





Q. Anything to say?



Blaze is having a hard time. I hope he overcomes it.
