Interview with Trek
iNcontroL: Ok well first off nice to see you gaming some iNcontroL: is this a segway into your reemergence or no? Trek: basically artanis nagged me for quite a while to play f2f so i finally agreed knowing that id probably lose but, been playing a couple of games here and then but i dont see any motivation to play any more than that Trek: cause i suck LoL! iNcontroL: its ok everyone from SWE isnt great iNcontroL: What are your thoughts on the series as a whole, fun games, nice maps or disasterous? Trek: well it was fun games and great maps, but my head was so horribly slow i almost got mad at my brain for not following properly! Trek: or i was just outplayed, dont know iNcontroL: ah i hate it when that thing doesn't cooperate iNcontroL: You were a 58% favorite on gg.net to win this match, is it nice to have such a fan base and support? Trek: well thats mostly cause ppl vote on me thinking that im active when im not, u fools ! ... but most swedish ppl support me nomatter what i do so i guess its mostly swedes ... dont know Trek: to actually answer your question it feels splendid! iNcontroL: blind patriotism! iNcontroL: ah good iNcontroL: Any chance we will see a more sharp and stunningly handsome Trek in future BW events? Trek: ill probably practise for next years wcg, and if im extremely bored with life i might slide into some random tournament and try to win but fail Trek: ;] iNcontroL: thats good to hear, we all enjoy your play, swedes and otherwise! iNcontroL: Thanks for your time, any shoutouts? Other than the makers of that hack you once used. Trek: u mean aiope? iNcontroL: (ooh burn burn) iNcontroL: was just a joke! iNcontroL: shoutouts? Trek: to my friends ! |
Interview with SigurD
iNcontrol: ok well first off congrats on the impressive win SigurD: thx iNcontrol: Up and coming USA gamer trumps legendary SWE all star, expected or surprised? SigurD: im pretty surprised. I dont have that much confidence in my abilities yet. And sometimes i choke up a bit but I knew i could give him a good fight since he was inactive playing wow. SigurD: im bad at interviews btw iNcontrol: Who have you been practicing with? Beating out trek is no small task, inactive or not hes a legendary player. SigurD: My serious practice i usually play alot with my friends on europe namely SuKeR, DAy, and Sadist. But I mostly play on east in channel X17 and some games in op TOT) with teh fellas there iNcontrol: he improvement shows, with your big performances against Fisheye and now trek, very impressive. iNcontrol: Any thoughts on the games in particular? Favorite one? Maps, mu's? etc.. SigurD: My favorite game was definitely the TvT on Ride of valkyries. I was etchy early on and accidently canceled my barracks right before it finished. It set me back alot in the early game but i was able to recover with my macro. The maps were pretty fun and imo balanced overall. Im not really a fan of TvPing but it seems to be my strong point. iNcontrol: great, i heard that 42 min tvt is exciting iNcontrol: should be a nice view for onlookers! SigurD: yeah iNcontrol: Well we all know we will be seeing more of you in events to come, namely the big NW's tomorow with USA facing SWE and BG in the same day! iNcontrol: Any shout outs? SigurD: ya id like to shout out to USA A Team! and just all americans in general this one for u HOLA SOPLAPOLLAS iNcontrol: very nice iNcontrol: and thanks for your time! |
A big thank you goes out to the Event team for making this happen, and to ToT)iNcontroL( for the interviews.
