(P)KT Rolster_Motive

[image loading]

Source: Daily eSports

This is your first interview in a while.

It has been a really long time since my last interview. I believe my last interview was last season when I grabbed two victories in one day.

You were known as a gifted SC2 player but you weren't given a lot of chances so you must have been hurting inside.

The other teams are really good. I got better really quickly. But right now my situation is similar with others. In my opinion, the team that prepares better and the team that gets lucky is the winning team.

When you grabbed those two victories last season, you made a big impact. But then afterwards, you started getting sent out less.

I want to apologize to the fans who had big expectations of me. I am also angry at myself. I was looking for the opportunity to be sent out again and the coaching staff was able to give it to me today.

You disappointingly lost last match.

It was not a strategy that I had prepared. I tried it out cause I saw an opening but it didn't end up working. I now regret making that decision.

You played against soO really well today.

The strategy I used against soO was the strategy I had actually planned on using last week. I think losing on Caldeum was medicinal.

soO is very good at ZvP.

I was hoping to dodge soO at all costs but lo and behold, I was pitted up against soO. I figured the game was going to be difficult but I was doing really well since several days ago so I gained confidence through that.

You are known for being one of the first members of KT to transition to SC2.

Honestly, I was feeling really pressured because my results were not great. I wasn't able to produce the amount of results that I should have been able to with my head start. From here on out, this is where things get important.

KT Rolster is now rank one.

KT Rolster is the best. I think I'm one of the middle players within this team.

How much do you want to be KT Rolster's ace?

As of now, I still have the mentality that I need to win whenever I get sent out. I think I can start getting greedy enough for the ace spot once I get more victories.

This season's goals?

My goal is to get as many opportunities as possible to get sent out. Once I get sent out a lot and secure a lot of victories, then I'll start thinking of what I want afterwards. My team is my competition. We don't have a significant skill difference or anything like that but depending how hard we work is what determines who gets picked for the Proleague lineup.

KT가 야구단 유치에 심혈을 기울이고 있다. (something about KT's baseball team)

10구단 창단한다는 이야기는 들었는데 급하게 돌아가더라. KT가 농구단과 게임단처럼 명성을 떨쳤으면 좋겠다. (something about how KT's baseball team is doing and something about KT's basketball reputation.)

Anything else you would like to say?

We received padding from the headquarters so that we could stay warm for the winter. I want to thank them for that. I want to thank the coaching staff for believing in me when they sent me out. I want to thank my teammates for all their advice.

Re: KT's baseball team -> This upcoming (2013) baseball season will have a new baseball team, the NC Dinos, based in Changwon entering as the ninth team. KT's baseball team will be the tenth and plans to enter the KBO sometime in the next couple of years.

(http://baseballdeworld.com/2012/11/09/korea-kt-sponsor-expansion-kbo-team-suwon/ and http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/sports/2012/11/136_124064.html)

Strange to see though why KT would promote them all of a sudden. Will need someone to clarify more on this.

I'm really happy for Motive, didn't see much of him during the Hybrid Proleague or regular SPL, It's good to see his work is paying off. That said, he didn't really answer the questions on some of these . Thanks SeekeR for the translation!

Would have been sweet to see him win with proxy cannons under the warp prism, but this was cool as well. :D
