Final boss wins =)
Through Flash's reliable skills, KT was able to continue on a 13 win and no-loss streak during the Winner's League.
-How do you feel after beating Jaedong and becoming the Last Match King (T/N: Final boss) I was really happy because it had been a while since LeeSsangRok (T/N: FvJ) and it was possible that we would not have played against each other today but maybe by the will of the heavens, we met. I was nervous and I think it's been a while since I've had shown a fun game like this.
-If you were to give yourself a grade for this game? Out of 10, I would give myself a 8 or 9. I had ordered my SCV to build a factory but I guess I ran out of money because my SCV was just standing there. I put up my factory at the time one would normally put up starports. So my tank timing became even slower.
-The game plan was very fiery Every game I keep a concept in mind and this time the concept was to be aggressive enough to throw the opponent off. I am preparing and practicing many concepts.
-What did you think when you saw the 3 lurkers in the beginning? The SCVs were originally supposed to pass by but something felt weird so I changed their direction and fortunately I saw the lurkers. When Jaedong-hyung ignored the bunker and came into my base, I was a little surprised.
-When did you think you had won? When I caught the 3 lurkers, I was half-certain I would win. After the middle, Jaedong-hyung seemed to be disoriented.
-There are 5 games left in SWL. Are you confident in winning all of them? I really want to try. If personally I can have a 18-win streak it's a great record but if the team can have that kind of winning record, I think it's really amazing. There is a past record of 23-wins but if we can go to 18, I think we can definitely attempt to challenge that record.
-The team atmosphere must be great. It is really nice. Perhaps because of that Coach Kang always teases Reach-hyung and the rest of the team is watching it with amusement. If Reach-hyung messes around with us, Coach Kang always avenges us. There's things like that and everyone is having fun and doing well.
-Is there a team that is an obstacle to the winning streak? Personally, I think rather than the strong SKT team, Woongjin Stars with Light newly added will the be hardest opponent.
-Anything else you would like to say? First of all, the Hwaseung Oz players have really helped us for Violet. Especially even Hiya's parents helped which really touched my heart. Actually Violet today came to pack his stuff and he came to the dorm with a mask on. I was really happy to see his bright personality even though he was sick. I needed to buy a new mouse but Violet-hyung gave me his new mouse that he had. This time I want to use the new mouse and do well in the new dual individual leagues (T/N: MSL and OSL). Lastly, I occasionally lose my bead bracelet (T/N: You know the beads that Buddhists wear? Yeah.. don't know the name for it but I think that's what he's referring to) Everytime strangely my games don't work out well and when I lost them this time, I lost twice but my parents knew of this and sent me the bracelet again. Because my parents always support me outside of the game, I feel well supported and thankful. Today was a good day in many ways. (T/N: Wow... Flash does talk alot. ^^;
_________________________________________________________________________________
They look so confused ^^
-How do you feel after contributing to your team's win? Stats: Although I only did a 1-kill, I'm really happy the team was able to do well after me and I feel I should do better in the future. Action: I am happy I did a 2-kill but I'm a little disappointed to Jaedong even though I won the build order. But I'm still happy the team won.
-Why did you lose the 2nd game? Stats: Because the opponent is a rookie (T/N: No insult implied), I thought he would do an all-in play. So I used a dark templar build which is strong against all-ins, but the opponent used observers. Because the build did not work, the game became harder. I should have thought the opponent would go observers, but I think I was a little careless.
-You defeated Shy and Hiya but lost to Jaedong. Action: In the vP, ignoring my muta control I think it went pretty well and vT, I was able to win because I used a strategy by predicting his play. In the vZ, I thought the opponent would go 12d Hatch but I didn't think that he would not block off his expansion, cancel his hatchery, and block at his main base. After this, I think my response was not very good. I thought that there would be a zergling attack but I already had taken alot of damage from the zerglings. I knew it was coming but could not block it.
-After you lost to Jaedong, what were you thinking? You were seen on camera Action: I think I wasn't able to concentrate and I regret not responding better. To be honest, although I was disappointed I lost the game, I as well was hoping for LeeSsangRok and that was what I was talking about with my teammates.
-If you meet Jaedong next time, are you confident you will win? Action: After I lost a previous Starleague, I felt that I had to play with confidence. This time, before the game I was doing alright but in the game, I think I was lacking some confidence.
-The team is on a 13 all win streak Stats: It is already 13 wins. We have just been doing as our coach and director have told us to but because the teammates are doing well, we have been able to get this far. I hope we can continue winning and break the old record of 23 wins. Action: Before the SWL, I jokingly thought since we have Flash we will keep winning. I'm glad I've been able to contribute even a little to the team wins and I hope to do well not only in SWL but in the next round as well.
-Anything else you would like to say Stats: Although I did not have a vZ today, because Oz has a very strong Zerg lineup, I practiced alot of vZ. I would like to thank Action and Perfective, and even Hoejja who helped me practice and to the coaching staff who always believes in me and sends me out. To my parents who often call me before games, I would like to say your son is working hard so please don't worry. Action: After Hoejja made it through the preliminaries, I think his interview has been misunderstood but it was just words said in jest. We've apologized to each other and I hope the fans don't misunderstand anymore.

stars a bigger threat than skt? >:O
thanks for the translation!

Flash lost against Calm and Zero due to losing his bracelet, it all makes sense now.
Thanks for translating

"-Is there a team that is an obstacle to the winning streak? Personally, I think rather than the strong SKT team, Woongjin Stars with Light newly added will the be hardest opponent."
Yeah, we'll see >.<
SKT has already beaten Flash once this year in the team games; it's too bad Best isn't exactly showing good results at the moment.
Congratulations to Flash for beating Jaedong though (although I wanted Jaedong to get three wins and finish off KT).
|
It feels good to hear that other teams are also supporting Violet . Vioet's new mouse gonna give Flash DUAL GOLDS BABY!!!!!
|
violet gives his mouse to flash before leaving towards an uncertain destiny. very moving.... get well soon!!
nice interview though, flash sounds really relaxed and in good mood. kinda sick how he just feels the game and everything his opponents are planning...

Did you just argue with God? That's blasphemy.

Hahahahah, yes, Flash is quite a chatterbox, which is why I dread it when interviewers ask him questions that aren't related to his gameplay. ><;; Violet packing his stuff though... Makes me feel sad. It's really nice that he gave Flash his mouse though, hopefully Flash will use it to get even more victories!
I wasn't too surprised at the results, Flash just tearin' it up again, but it was definitely a close fight against Hwaseung. And the hell, Flash? Don't underestimate SKT now... Thanks for the translation! Looking forward to Stats + Action's interview~
|
Right Flash.. stars are now your biggest problem..
pride comes before the fall, i guess best will roflstomp him again sometime soon
|
Thanks a lot for the translation! <3 Flash!

I had ordered my SCV to build a factory but I guess I ran out of money because my SCV was just standing there. I put up my factory at the time one would normally put up starports. So my tank timing became even slower.
lolz, even Flash.... I thought his build was a bit strange. It was like SK Terran without the Vessels. I guess that's what puts him apart from the rest of us, that he can pull something like this out of his hat.
Flash remembers his loss against Light and how he owned Best last time. That's why he fears Woongjin more. And Flash's TvP have been so solid lately that I would even consider TvZ as his weakness, which speaks in Woongjin's favour.
|
HiyA's parents FIGHTING! Violet FIGHTING! :D
Do you guys think that Violet's gonna be okay..? I hope so anyway...
|
Moving his SCVS the other direction...he really is God Young Ho. Nice to hear that Violet is still showing strength.

KT needs to make the championship again so Violet can come cheer for them :/

Congrats to Flash - such a impressive and solid player! Also, Violet get well fast!

Why are SKT fans so butthurt? It's not like Flash said SKT is shit, he just said that he fears Woongjin Stars more than SKT, which he already stated that is a strong team. I personally disagree with Flash, but let's not forget SKT butthurt fans the roflstomp Flash gave SKT last time. Oh and QQ more, I bathe in SKT fanbois tears.
User was warned for this post

I'm an atheist
In reality, there's no doubt that Flash is favored to win against anyone he plays.
But I certainly don't mind his occasional losses against worthy opponents in epic games.

Oh, and FlaSh:
Lrn 2 Pelvc Thrst Lol.
Seriously, wouldn't it be sick if he and FBH did some ceremonies? (Awards nights, SPL Finals, etc)

Dude don't be so offensive to SKT1 fans, some of them are joking and the other ones, well yeah we are all BW fans yes?
But I agree with flash woongjin can look scary and skt1 has been medicore lately (as always, lol kidding skt1 fans :D) but bisu and fanta are the only ones steppin it up for skt1 but yeah the season is not ver by a ling shit and in PL, I honestly think it will be KT vs HEntus or KT vs SKT1, I hope the latter, the rivalry is awesome and I love seeing bisu and skt1 get smashed :D WL FINALS COMING SOON FUCK YES
SKT1 WORST KT
GOD YOUNGHO HWAITING! ^^ amazing that he just sent his scv other way, like haxorz or somethins its really insane, but yeah action steppin it up and stats ^^
GO KT! Fighting! ^^

pride comes before the fall, i guess best will roflstomp him again sometime soon Forgetting a certain game that happened on Fortress? Best is overrated as shit, he's beaten Flash once in the last six tries, can't PvZ, can't PvP anymore, when are people going to get over this guy. He only gets playtime because Sun and Paralyze have managed to not improve much at all this year.
In the long run, though, SKT will make the finals again (as I called last year, thank you), and Stars will fail tremendously as usual, because neither SKT nor KT have decent zergs, so the acquisition of Light won't do much there. Light is pretty much only good for sniping Jaedong, but what good is that when you end up losing to Perfectman all the time?

Flash is rating himself out of 10 now? lol
|
thank you for translating. I'm really appreciate it :D

Stats and Action interviews are up =)

So you are saying Flash doesn't exists? + Show Spoiler +[explanation]Flash is god joke[/explanation]

Fuck the T1 fans, Flash knows what's up!
Thanks for interviewing, I really enjoyed watching these games, especially Flash beating Jaedong with such strong and decisive play.

To be honest, although I was disappointed I lost the game, I as well was hoping for LeeSsangRok and that was what I was talking about with my teammates. Hahahah, so you were hoping for another FvJ game too, huh Action? And ughhh, netizens... It's good to see that Action addressed poor Hoejja's interview. Hopefully the matter's all blown over now.
And KT fans, what's with the rudeness? We were just questioning Flash all in good fun, and of course you take our comments as an attack on Flash/your team and start attacking us. Chill guys, SKT vs. Woongjin today will prove if Flash's words are right. No need to bring out the insults.
Thanks kassi for translating Stats + Action's interview as well! ^^
|
LOL I knew it Action threw the game because he also wanted to see an epic Flash vs Jaedong showdown. Thanks Action for giving the game up!
|
I knew it was coming but could not block it.
Typical mental state of sacrifical lamb upon meeting angry Tyrant. Thanks for translations, Reach needs to play asap!

You would deny Flash his divinity? Even after seeing with your own eyes all the miracles he has performed over the past year? Blasphemer!
|
Thanks for translating. Damn you Flash, you too good
|
Thank you for translating. I think Flash, Light and Shine could form a good team. It sounds so positively
|
Woongjin Stars is team filled with good players, but they still fail to deliver this season(so far). I think Flash meant they'll be scarry once most of them performs like they should. Zero, Free, Really, Soulkey...now Light-that's an impressive list of players.
And of course, thank you for translating this.
|
I love how he says Stars > SKT
Let the hilarity ensue.
|
Thanks, I've been waiting for this interview! Flash always seems to have something interesting to say, and this time around Stats and Action give non-boring answers as well.
|
In FlaSh's defense, Stars' line-up has a better chance at taking him out than T1 does. T1 only has FanTaSy, Stars has SoulKey, ZerO, Light, and possibly even free (assuming that free is really back in form). Bisu' vT is still as shaky as ever, and BeSt is barely in form anymore to even be considered a threat. Only FanTaSy now has a legit chance at beating FlaSh and that's assuming he doesn't mess up like he did against FlaSh last round.

yessss kt is such a strong team now hope they can pull through WL undefeated.

Flash isn't wrong, when Stars bothers to come to play they're one of the strongest teams. Light and Free are good enough at XvT that he can't slack off, Zero's ZvT on a good day is amazing, and Really isn't half bad either. The problem is that they're all inconsistent as hell so they never achieve anything.
You're kidding yourself if you think Best is any real threat to Flash. The only times Best has ever beaten Flash is when Flash chooses a more passive build order, the minute he picks an aggressive one Best loses as badly as any other protoss out there. In fact, Bisu is probably more capable of beating Flash than Best especially now Flash is less predictable and far more aggressive.

Thanks for translation, enjoyable read as usual!

dang it jd... i wish this interview would be with you..
|
Thanks for the interview. Always interesting to read a post-LeeSsangRok interview.

Yesss... Action loves LeeSsangRok too, can't believe there are some peole unsatisfied with last night's games, LeeSsangRok is like the pinnacle of esports, always glad to witness one.
Thanks for the translation, Flash interviews are always cool.

I'm questioning jd's decision making in this game.
And yes, Reach can bully God (Young Ho) without any payback from him (Only from the coach) .^_^

I actually noticed Flash's bracelet before the match and went "Ow, fuck, it's back".
|
haha I was wondering why FlaSh is so slow with his tech. Now we know that he tried to build a factory but doesn't have enough money and his SCV just stood there.
|
Even the God needs to pay his SCVs to build his stuff!!!!
|
Thanks for the interview! Glad to see Flash has finally found another replica of his good ol' lucky charm
|
I thought sending out Shy was a bit of a random choice by OZ because with Perfectman played already that meant we could only send out 2 out of our 3 remaining best players. But he did allright picking up his second ever Pro-league win against Stats, good job. The rest of OZ letting us down though Hiya and Perfectman this time. It was probabbly always going to come down to Jaedong Vs Flash in winners league and Flash seems to have Jaedong's number right now. But it would have been nice if Jaedong didn't have to play through 2 players just to get to Flash.
thanks for translation

Does anyone know where you can get a bead wristband like flash's? Ive looked on ebay/amazon/trademe but can't find one like his. I've also gone to a few surf shops etc. but haven't found one thats not super chunky. Can anyone help me out here lol?

...Now we all know Flash's secret.... He has an uber magical amulet that makes him god!
|
... this was the most random bump ever. I was wondering when KT played OZ, turns out you're looking for Flash's bracelet...
