edit: Messed up title

Source
http://www.playsc.com/forum/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=378619&extra=page=1

Q You achieved a AK in your first GSTL appearance
Innovation: I've heard that my first opponent Hurricane is a very good player, I thought that he is going to be an obstacle, but I played well in the first game, so I All-Killed.
Coach: Innovation's performance is very satisfying, we are all happy for him. Because of his AK we have achieved the best result for fans while using the least resources, two birds with one stone.

Why sent out Innovation first?
Coach: Because there is a empty period between GOMTV matches, therefore I don't want him to feel pressured so he can play a smooth game.
Innovation: No matter when I am sent out I will still have pressure. Being the first player to be sent out for the first match of the season, couple with the fact that this is also my first match after I transfer to esf. All these pressure combined has made me working even harder.

Q In the second match you have achieved a come back after a huge deficit.
Innovation: The opponent failed to judge the situation properly. Although the match was hard, but I made the right decision at the right time, so I achieved victory.

Q In the third match you made a supply depot in the expansion, is that for scouting?
Innovation: This is for my army rally point, it's a habit of mine.

Q In the last match you played Leenock
Innovation: Leenock is a strong player that knows what he is doing, I was a little bit worried. But because he is a Zerg, I think I can still win.

How are you getting along with your new teammates?
Innovation: I've just arrived in the team house so there is a lot of things that I not familiar with yet. I am happy with my team house life.

How is Acer team life different from before?
Innovation: Comparing to STX's, the new training environment seem to be better at motivating players to train. But because I've just arrived, it's hard to say fore sure.

Scarlette the only Zerg on your team was not on the roster?
Coach: She wish to have some time for herself, so we will not use her for a while. Although she cannot join us, our practice is not affected. Other team will try to exploit this weakness but we are not afraid.

In the TV interview you said that you wish the team to be the champion.
Innovation: If we work hard and don't be lazy, we can become the champion. All my teammate are very strong, therefore there is no reason not to win.

If you become the champion, you will acheive a SPL + GSTL double.
Innovation: I do not care about titles. I think I will win if I train hard.

You will face Soul soon
There are a lot of strong players on Soul. I think it will be a difficult team. Playing against old team mate sounds interesting.

Anything else?
This is my first match since I transferred to esf. From now on I will play more games and I still have much to show. I didn't do well in WCS, I will try to keep my momentum this time and do well from now on.
Coach: We don't want to hear "Acer only good because of Innovation". So other players must work harder too.

Sorry about that, it is my fault. I did not check who the Zerg was when I did the translation. Fixing it now.

This interview was probably from the Korean interview.

Leenock is not really doing well enough to be acknowledged lately

I want so much for him to be a top zerg, because his games were varied, and sometimes just so fucking zany but I just don't think it will ever happen again. Maybe he became too reliant on Infestor-BL by the end and lost his mojo for other styles.
