Now that you've reached the Ro8, do you feel that you have been successful in dealing with your nerves?
- He thinks he'll be able to deal with it once he wins the GSL.
- In the first set on Metalopolis he was talking to himself, please not close location, please not close locaton. He gave up his build and improvised it. He's been playing a lot versus mvp on the ladder, and he have been using Void Rays. He went for the void rays, and was able to defeat him.
How far do you think you can actually get in this tournament. Your next opponent is jinro, how do you feel about facing him?
- First of all, his goal is to win the next round. He always sets small goals. He heard GSL is a Global Starcraft tournament, but tihs is the first time where he will be playing a foreigner.. He feels honored playing against foreigner. He heard from an interview that JinrO is glad to play against choya, and he did not think it was in any bad respect. He looks forward playing a good match against him.

13:37 - Here's the winner interview with JinrO.
- I'm feeling too happy to be able to express myself. Words are not enough right now, I'm literally shaking! And giggling.
You posted on TL right after oGsMC match. Were you actually in your booth? And does it help you to chill out on the forums that you've been on?
I normally don't browse TeamLiquid before the match since I might read something that might change my mindset. This time I wanted to prepare, but I also wanted to know how MC was doing. I turned on and watched the live report. Had me worried for a bit, losing the first game.
You've kinda been avoiding the typical terran all-ins, like one-base and two-base allins. does it give you a better change reaching the finals?
- It might make me harder to practice against. I'm not BitByBitPrime, I'm the opposite. But you have to be a little bit BitByBit too, because if you don't have it you have no fear. You gotta have them fear you.
Which players left in this tournament most intimiate you?
- MC, MVP, FruitDealer and NesTea. I'm sure I'm forgetting some guys.

12:59 - Interview with oGsMC:
How does it feel to pass off a StarCraft 1 champion in such a macro heavy series?
- He was confident in macro game, he was comfortable playing it.
Are you confident after beating such a great player, being able to be the first Protoss to win the GSL?
- He thinks he's the best player and he wants foreign fans to support him because he is going to continue being the best player in GSL.
Why did you choose the void Ray builds in all your games? What is in these builds that you like so much?
- [Transcribing this will be hard, as MC went for it in English, but he said Void Rays kills off overlord scouts, and then something about July making drones, drones, drones]

12:03 - MarineKingPrime in the studio, interviewed by Artosis. Here's how it went down:
How would you rank Leenock's skill compared to other Zergs you've faced recently?
- He's been playing with leenock a lot and they're very good friends also. From his point of view, he is probably one of the top players he knows.
Your TvZ is quite good, what percentage of your practice games are against Zerg opponents, and who do you play with the most out of all the Zergs?
- As the only Zerg player in Prime team is CheckPrime, he usually practices with him.

Tooons of marines. They've got massive upgrades too.
Leenock's ultralisk choice isn't really optimal. They can't do much against the heavily upgraded marines.
Leenock tries to kill off the terran force, but there are too many marines who live to see another battle.
This should be over soon, if not Leenock spawns the Queen of Blades somehow.
Nope, GG from Leenock.

11:39 - Leenock wins the second game, MarineKing no chance without any support for those marines.
MarineKing relied on the island expansion so much, so he probably should've just dropped one medivac's worth of marines in the island, instead of losing half of his economy to a nydus worm.

MarineKing moving out with his 30 something marines and two medivacs. Destroying the rocks, entering Leenock's main base, spreading his marines beautifully. Leenock with banelings and mutalisks. Are they enough? No, GG from Leenock!
Game 1 - MarineKing vs. Leenock @ Shakuras Plateau
11:12 - Close positions, Leenock to the top left and MarineKing top right. A bit of a strange overlord scout from Leenock, who's at the same time drone scouting. Will be taking his hatchery first, MarineKing laying down his barracks just above his ramp.
***
MarineKing expanding, plus adding three more barrakc sin his main. Stim and combat shield have both been researched. So we'll probably see a marine attack soon.
Leenock with a spine crawler at his expansion. No zerglings yet.

I'm starting to like this song that's played right now on the stream. "Wait on me", or whatever they sing in the chorus. It's probably in Korean.

10:43 - Welcome! Got your coffee where it should be? Staying up all night perhaps to watch this? My time is 10:43, and I'm super excited to see today's games.
We have MarineKing from Prime (fake BoxeR) going up against Leenock of fOu. If any of you remember the eeeeepic game between Leenock and Clide in the Round of 64, you should be as excited as I am. Will MarineKing continue with his mass marines, or will we see something different, for once?
We have oGs player MC against JulyZerg from Startale. July has been looking really solid in the last couple of rounds. July reaching this far in his first season is quite a feat.
Sweden's pride, JinrO, is going up against Polt, the slayer of SlayerSBoxeR. JinrO showed us a new way of playing Terran, much inspired from StarCraft 1, with a lot of defense and just macroing out the opponent. It will definitely be interesting to see how his Terran versus Terran will be like.
And last but not least, we have MVP against choya. MVP, thought of as the best Korean player with his his ladder rank, will lock horns with the guy who eliminated former WarCraft 3 progamer Check.
It's starting in about 20 minutes. Make sure to tune in at GOMTV.net.
