Lee "(T)INnoVation" Shin Hyung, Terran player of Team Acer, is the star of the 82nd episode of my 'Grilled' interview series.

Some of the topics discussed:
- INnoVation's consistency in Ro8 finishes.
- What he admires about (T)Flash.
- The semi-final he narrowly won over (T)Mvp at the WCS S1 finals.
- Whether (Z)Soulkey qualifies as his true rival or not.
- If he can become the bonjwa of SC2.

The entire 19m07s subtitled video interview can be watched at Team Acer.

Aaaah, I really wish people would post transcripts when they put out video interviews -.- I'd much rather read, and doesn't take THAT long to do... Especially when it's translated and you can't just listen to it.

Gonna have to wait till I get home to watch this I guess, excited to see what he has to say

Woo thx thorin!
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

It's so weird how Innovation can be so confident yet I came away from that interview thinking he's a humble guy haha.

Thanks Thorin. :D

He needs a software update ASAP, his monotone gives away his robot status.

Sad. Innovation is some one who was the clear best player for along time, skill unrivaled and completely awesome play, yet he only has one win to show, and I guess if any season finals is best. But his wins aren't accurate to what he was in that period of time to the rest.

I dunno, Bogus was pretty vague with a lot of his answers and outright evaded certain questions, a true grill master would've kept him on the fire until he got what he was looking for.

I came into this particularly intrigued, because Thorin is the best interviewer and Innovation is most definitely the worst interviewee. But I came out more satisfied than I expected to be. Thanks based Thorin.

Well i think its just because that he is kinda shy guy
To me, as a native who can find out their characteristic by hearing their voice and way to speak
It seems like he dont have any self confidance even though he is the best player in sc2
Just have some self confidance innovation..

To be fair vague answers is probably a world record for getting a response out of innovation.
