Now that you know him a little here goes the interview. If you want to see his gosu skills watch his games against legionnarie and read
Cancel's Battle Report.So you study? What will you do in your future?
Right now I am studying a 3 year career, Electronic Engineering. I honestly do not know what will come later, I am just going through life as I go and we will see what I find. A stable job after I finish my career would be the option, we will see.
Has Broodwar helped you or made you lag behind in life?
Well I suppose both. To be addicted to a game takes away a lot of time, but not only Broodwar, but any computer game during your whole life time. Without a doubt Broodwar has been the main one and has been the best. On the other hand it has help me understand many things. This game helps you understand professional players of any sport, to help you see, that although it may appear easy, has a lot within that you need to learn. It also has allowed me to meet and know many people.
How many have you personally convinced to start playing Broodwar?
Jaja.. my older brother was the one who heard bout this game and we started playing at the same time. Together we convinced another of our brothers to start playing who played a little.. Later some friends who already had heard of the game and some others we convinced between us all, its hard to tell. But let us say 4 persons more or less.
Do you always play Toss in competitions? And how good are your other races?
Depending on the map, sometimes I play zerg, but it usually does not give me good results. I think with zerg I can defend myself, I can even my sneaky things - but with terran I am a newbie, I can never do everything I need to do, it just does not give me time, even though I am aware of it.
What do you want, a new expansion or Starcraft 2?
It would be the same for me if Starcraft 2 ended up as a good game but it probably will not be, so I would prefer an improved expansion (that they will never make, so why ask ourselves about it ;D)
How do you do it to annihilate the majority with a 2-0
You mean sometimes ;o I do not think I win the majority of my games 2-0.. in fact I often feel I am the one squashed.
Do you study your opponents before a game?
All depends how much want to do it before. Normally I prefer no to do it because if it is a gosu player I end up getting all nervous thinking about the game and it ends up being worse.
The Spanish team is so strong. Why have people not given it the importance they merit?
I do not know.. to be honest I think people should not give importance to the countries but to the players. Also in Spain we have many problem recently with respect to organization of our national team. Few people are willing to play in the Nation Wars if its not against a strong nation (like Germany, Poland or Korea) because I suppose they consider it a waste of time. Maybe that is one of the reasons.
Do you guys help each other within a your team and teach each other?
More than within the team we do this in our community of friends. You do not always know everyone in the team and some of them are potential enemies in other tournaments. This is why sometimes you would not like for everyone to know the secrets that we all have about our game and the same goes for our weak points. We do not like to bring these out to the open because it would make us very vulnerable. However many times I do it. Specially with my bother, Abeja, for example, or with manza, zerg player who get along great (offline too.)
Do you know all your team members offline?
Most of the Spaniards yes. But because I have never gone to an International Lan I do not know many of the international players…
Do you guys play a lot between each other?
Depends on the team. With the fk team we play very often two or three of us. I have been playing a lot with Zatoichi and with manza too. In LG I have not been there too long and also the business about ladders in other server maybe be dividing our community too much, so I think maybe team games between team members may become irrelevant little by little. Still its always fun to spend an afternoon with you team members gaming, chatting and watching reps.
Who is your favorite sparring partner?
I do think I have one of them, I think its better to play with everyone so you do not get to used to any particular style. But if you mean who is my favorite opponent.. mmm I think manza is, although we do not play as much as we could or should, but when we do we make nice games.
Who are you afraid of in Spain or South America?
Mmm, I do not think I fear anyone, the serious word should be respect. Sucker I respect considerably, he has left it very clear that he is an opponent of category whom you should really imposes respect. manza too, but less, its clear and.. wait, any gamer can surprise you so it’s better if I say I respect everyone, I don’t want surprises! ;)
Have you ever played the legendary Hellghost?
Yes, we have played, but I honestly have a very poor memory when it comes to remember past games, more so the results.. I remember a Pv(ramdom)T in Gaema Gowon but I am can not make memory.
After Spain, what Central or South American team do you think is the strongest?
Mmm, it does not have to be Spain the strongest, I would wage my bets for Peru. They have JoseZ (whom we all know his heroic achievement ;)). Still from my point of view LG) is the best strongest team.
What do you think of the crazy people at qp, the clan and their website?
To be honest I do not visit many pages on the web, only WGTour, GosuGamers and the LG) page ;).
Ok its news already that you have joined LG), why and how did this occur?
Well in Fk I did had problems with Fk.fragile for a diverse of reasons that are not important; and manza, nether and me decided that if Fk.fragile wanted his team so much, it is better if he himself takes care of it. Having a few friends in LG) (at least myself, I can not speak for manza or nether) we decided to remain as one group and unite and join LG).
What do you think of Stargate?
It’s a good server. It is good to force people to use Bwscanner and I like the fact that it does not save all the games/replays. In servers where this happens, a lot of times I prefer not to do some of my strategies and reserve them because many people just download your reps and learn them. Also it avoids the hassle of reporting, whether it’s the wgtour bot that does not work, or if some one hacked, or etc.... its better. Although I do not know how neogamei will affect stargate, it looks like they hit it hard.
WCG?
Well, the WCG’s are always a surprise to me every year. I have always been almost there but I have never achieved it, I also have not been in the best of shapes, but I have tried it, like I will this year too if they get organized in Spain. Probably this year I am the best of shape than the two previous ones, but who knows, I could just get my third consecutive let down.
End of interview
We had a good long conversation after this interview. I found out that Abeja, his older brother, age 35 (maybe there is some hope for me after all.. nah.. lol), actually went to WCG representing Spain in 2003. We also had a good laugh about the American gamer ilnp's tempter tantrums and accusations after losing some games to Zelotito. I also found out that he uses a normal mouse with no pad to play! He is an intelligent very sharp individual with excellent manners I enjoyed interviewing him.
