Will you please lend us a moment to introduce yourself?
“Hi! I'm Caviar Napoleon Acampado my friends call me "cav" and also known as EnDerr as my game name in Starcraft 2.”
Your latest achievements were winning Gold in TheGamesExpo in Singapore last August, also grabbing Gold in the recently held WCG Philippine Qualifiers, as well as a smooth finish on PCX. How does it feel to dominate most of the events you join?
“I feel relieved because all my hard work payed off.”
The next challenge for you is WCG to be held in Korea this December, have you seen the pool of players? How do you feel about it? And how is your preparation coming along?
“Yes, I've seen the list of players and was excited about it. Because, I'll get to have a chance to see pro players in person. Actually I'm having a hard time deciding what mouse to use because I got my new mouse "lachesis" which I'mnot comfortable to use yet and the other is "diamond back" which I got when I won my 1st ever tournament in starcraft.
Its like should I use lachesis so ill be used to it and be my new gaming mouse or should I give one last tournament to my dimaond back which is i am very comfortable to use. As for the game itself, I'm inventing new build in every match up except for ZvZ .”
“I think yes, because we got some good players too that has proven themselves like moonglade.”
Who among the pool would you like to go against? Any special reasons?
“uhmm HuK, tod and kiwikaki cause I invented some new builds vs Protoss which I think is effective because I've won some games vs some good and known Protoss players while I'mladdering in NA.”
And for some mystical powers of luck you reach finals, who do you think will be your contender?
“MKP, not only because I want to have a revenge in my loss on the last IPL4 tournament but also to show my fellow captain Jabito that I'm really going against the real MKP and that match will be for jabby hehe.”
Speaking of Koreans, last IPL4 Pacific Qualifiers was held in the Philippines, and not a single Philippine player passed the groupstage against International players. What are your insights about this?
“Well some says that the bracketing has been cheated or something but for me its not a factor on why no people passed the group stages because its in the player if he got the skills to pass the group stage.”
Too much for the intensity, now lets get to know you and your team more. Do you mind introducing your gaming brothers?
“Sure but ill just mention only those who i know were active;"

How long have you been playing the game? What did StarCraft do to tease you into it?
“I started playing StarCraft since I was grade 6. Now I'min 2nd year in college so its more likely 6-7 years. First I was just curious about what my older brother "Carl Acampado" aka eXoSonnet and my guru "Mark ryan Rapisura" aka eXoBlazer were playing on our computer, on my first look I was like "what a boring game, whats the difference between that game and red alert?" and then my curiosity reach the highest level wherein I wanted to play the game too and played it beyond a normal perspective which made me realize how this game eats the time of my older brother and my guru.”
L to R: Mski.EnDerr, Mski.Wootz(DotA Captain), Mski.Jabito(SC2 Captain)
You must be very bored to keep playing that boring game for 7 years,haha. How do you balance your eSports career with other things going on in your life(School,Family,etc)?
“uhmm i just take 4 subjects, 2 majors and 2 minors so I'll still have time to practice and for my family and friends I hang out with them when I'm free and when I'm stressed from practice lol.”
Among the three races, why Zerg?
“Nothing special I just want to play as Zerg ”
Is there any players who served as your Inspiration/Idol all these years of gaming?
“In Broodwar days it was JaeDong for international, but now in SC2 none from international but for local it was my old brother and my guru.”
Can you give any motivational advice to the next batch of aspiring gamers?
“As long as you have passion , you believe and work hard for it no one can stop you unless the other one has it too, but if you don't have passion in what you are doing just stop it, cause nothing will happen. What I mean is as long as you don't give time and effort you wont be on where you want to be.”
Its nice to know some players from different parts of the world, lets wrap things up with a final shoutout if you have any.
“Thanks to StarCraft Philippine group, I promise to do my very best in WCG! go PH!!”
