Free interview after MSL Round of 16 day 1
-Published 10/16/2008 11:57:00 PM


You won the first game of Round 16

- I thought that if I win the first game it¡¯d be an easy ride, feeling very good about the win at the moment. I will practice very hard for the upcoming games.

Your build seemed like you knew the opponent¡¯s play

- I wanted to be as safe as I can be in the beginning. I am very confident in my late game, when I saw the opponent¡¯s base with my corsair I knew immediately what he was up to.

You utilized dark templars

- If the opponent does a two hatchery fast mutalisk, they¡¯re more susceptible to dark templar attacks. Though corsair, zealots, archon, and a dark templar would be a good combo.

What has changed in the team atmosphere?

- We¡¯ve always practiced very hard, but more so now, we are playing under the name `woongjin stars`. For sure our team spirit is much better than last year. I think being able to eat well has a lot to do with that.

Have you seen the top 16 maps?

- I haven¡¯t practiced very much on them, but through the Pro League practice I¡¯ve familiarized myself with the maps, so I don¡¯t think I will lose.

Were you nervous about playing against Lee Jae Dong, he was on a winning streak?

- Lately the games I¡¯ve played with him, my skills didn¡¯t even have time to fully come out. So when I came today I just wanted to be able to do a macro game without losing so early on in the game. I wanted to have a late game with him and have a straight fight. I don¡¯t think about opponents being strong, but rather think about my play.

Your team doesn¡¯t have a great record right now

- We practice very hard, but every other team does too. Hard practice won¡¯t pay off right away; it¡¯s going to take time. We need to have more players like Zero, and Guemchi to support the team. Once we do, we¡¯re going to have an even fight with other teams.

Any special words?

- I don¡¯t think Lee Jae Dong was able to practice very hard today because of yesterday¡¯s Pro League match. I hope next time he will have more time to practice to have more of a fair fight with me. Our team is practicing very hard and will try even harder as the season progresses. I will do better to have a good Pro League record.

Good job by Free. Seems to care about his team as well despite how low ranked Starss was last season. Don't give up!
