Axiom interviewed Acer Innovation on his life at the AxiomEsports house and more.


Innovation:
Foreign fans especially seem to like me... I feel sorry... Cause I'm not performing as well as before. I'm working hard so I can win again and show a good performance and I'll work hard to show reactions and do ceremonies.


See Innovation discuss the house, GSTL/Proleague, hellbats and more in the video below.

He seems to show plenty of emotion in the shots of him fooling around with the other guys in the house. Maybe he just doesn't feel comfortable in interviews and such.

Don't worry about reactions and ceremonies Innovation. We all like you for being machine good in SC2, like Flash was in BW. Just focus on practice so you can start crushing everyone again... That's what we like you for!

If he keeps the exercise up, then maybe one day he might have a body rivaling those of NaDa and Reach.

I think he is awesome and he is one of the players that show the new generation of SC2 players that fill the spots of players that retire.
But as much as I think he is a good player, compared to other Terran pros he lacks the micro they developed over WoL, he must improve his marine splitting and attention to HP of his bases after attacks as one of the main reasons he lost WCS KR was not repairing his CC after Soulkey attacked it, it was burning and he didnt repair, it got sniped few sec later.
I want to see him at the top once again and see him holding the GSL cup up high! GOGO INNOVATION!!!

That was funny! The "no bed before", the small pc room and the even smaller exercise room seem very asian But jeeez, it's time to get a furniture company to sponsor all the teams!

In Korea, it's not weird to sleep on a floor. It's
The traditional way, and still a lot of people don't own a bed. Even 10 years ago, many hotels didn't even have matrices.

Again, maybe Maru has the best splits, but Innovation isnt at 2nd place, I do think he has a relatively low level of splitting (just seeing him almost not splitting vs banes, just lifts or having the marines in big blobs) when we talk about other Terrans (Bomber, Maru, MvP, MMA etc.)

Not sure what games you are watching. INnoVation is one of the best Terran microplayers. If you want to "blame" him for something, then I guess being overly predictable. But his splits and micro is really top, much better than Mvp or MMA's.

I didnt see him doing splits that arent the "from 1 blob to 3 blobs to ~7 blobs" that are things that I used to do on platinum ladder, he loses giant groups of marines, his target firing with his units is the best of all the players, but when it comes to splits, he relies of WM hits way more than other players.

Innovations splits aren't good?

In an actual game, yes he can split, but when it comes to do everything, he doesnt have the splits then, but whatever, its my opinion of something he needs to work on in order to dominate 2014.

Wow. Talk about exploiting the youth.

In all fairness, space in Seoul is freaking expensive and those teams were absolutely massive. I'd be surprised if they did have beds.
Plus Kespa facilities still have a pretty high overall quality. Just take a gander at the main practice rooms or some such on youtube. They aren't exactly living in squalor.

Do they make you sleep on the floor at Kespa O_o
i guess they at least give players a mattress


Yes it is known.
Even JD who was a superstar in broodwar didn't have a bed.


Wow. Talk about exploiting the youth.

In all fairness, space in Seoul is freaking expensive and those teams were absolutely massive. I'd be surprised if they did have beds.
Plus Kespa facilities still have a pretty high overall quality. Just take a gander at the main practice rooms or some such on youtube. They aren't exactly living in squalor.


Some of them did. Take MBC Game for example. We had bunk beds.

LOL

If he keeps the exercise up, then maybe one day he might have a body rivaling those of NaDa and Reach.

Seems like in many team houses 4+ players share a room. So instead of beds often they have sleeping mats they roll out onto the floor.
Depends on the Teamhouse and the wealth of the sponsor though.
CJ's place now and Woonjin's old apartment were really, really nice places overall. Clean, spacious, well lit with nice living rooms and decent bedrooms.
T1 and KT we only really get to see footage of their gaming "offices" (both have their training and living facilities in different buildings.) In some Bisu interview we learned T1 players generally live 3+ to an individual apartment, but how many apartments they use is unknown. We never saw the rooms themselves just the living rooms.

Maybe it's not that big of a deal to sleep on the floor? I.e.many Japanese sleep that way, maybe it's also practised in Korea to some extent?
Great interview, but that part about working hard on ceremonies... Just concentrate on playing, not everyone has to be possessed by FBH xd

Good interview. Hope he doesn't think he should change himself for the fans though. I think being a little happier when he wins isn't a big deal but doing a 180 because the fans want to see ceremonies for example, well, I'd rather he didn't if he doesn't want to lol

This reminds me of the IdrA fan club project to send cheer up present when IdrA went into one of his first slumps. It led to an awesome package being sent. + Show Spoiler [watch the opening here] +
