A few words that describes the personality of Oprah perfectly.

Lachrymose and mawkish. I wanna slit my wrists when I see that woman.

... back on topic. It's also definitely a cultural thing. Being "uppity" in Asian culture isn't looked favourably upon.

Wow, Innovation is even more boring than I thought lol.. I respect his gameplay, but damn, its hard to really cheer for a guy this emotionless. Makes me miss players like MC (who is so terrible nowadays...) even more.

I enjoyed it because I like seeing interview troll attempts shot down. especially when they're fishing for compliments for foreigners.

Sick interview. Maybe he's not a poster child for awesomeness, but I enjoyed it. Especially this part.

``Yes, right now all the races are active at the top tier of competition. The more skilled player is the one who wins, and I don't think there's better balance than what we have now.``

Jesus Christ he sounds like a robot. This was pretty funny though:

Actually, Life lost to two foreigners at DreamHack: Summer. What did you think about that result?

I didn't really care.

The translation was from binary to Korean to English. Interesting to hear his thoughts on BW though. He seemed like a player with a lot of potential back then, though far from the monstrous player he currently is.

Haha. The only thing surprising about the interview is that he was probably a bit too honest (i.e. not enough media training). Most athletes have cardboard interview personalities. That is, they sound like they're reading off a checklist of "things that you're supposed to say", like a build order for interviews. Anybody is marketable if you give them the right checklist. The point of an interview isn't to show who a person is as much as to show fans what they want to see/hear.

Innovation has been playing some really interesting games lately. I guess that the talking he does in-game is far more valuable (kind of like Messi/etc.).

He couldn't care less about the fame that comes with being as good as him

The Dr. Manhattan nickname becomes more appropriate.

He gives ZERO fucks about human concerns.

This reminds me how much I love Stephano, or DIMAGA, or MC, or MKP. They are maybe not as skilled as he is (that's definitely the case) but they are entertaining. It's not all about the skill. Even EG couldn't make INnoVation marketable.

I remember some people regretting that he was not invited at HomeStory Cup... It would have been embarrasingly hilarious, for sure. Just imagine him casting with Fuzer and MC.

1. Kespa players are under strict restrictions for overseas tournaments. And no, EGTL is not in Kespa.

2. Innovation will not cast even if he is at HSC. All the Koreans in HSC did not cast except for those who are good in English such as MC.

3. For some fans, winning >>> personality.

I really love how he has no soul. He is just a passionless automaton that destroys people because that's the only thing he knows. I especially liked the part where he stated he felt nothing when he won WCS.
