Clash of the titans: [LOAD]chu

In what was probably the most anticipated match up in competitive HoN history, the two best teams in the world, Loaded and FnaticMSI clashed a few days ago in the Cyber-Sports Network Grand Final. We've already interviewed MSI's Trixi after that epic match, now's time for the winners, Loaded.

Presenting Part 2/2 of the series : [LOAD]chu

So chu, thanks for doing this. Why don't you start by introducing yourself?

-"Herro guys, my name is Jae Hyung Park, proudly representing all Koreans out there. I am currently ranked #1 in the universe for many of HoN heroes such as Hag, Pebbles, Pyromancer, mid solo Magmus, etc etc. I have recently took a long break from HoN due to a finger retardedness, but now I am back in action trying to get in shape again."

You've been away from HoN for quite a while I must say, so what were you doing exactly during this time? There were rumours ranging from you playing poker, to playing MMORPGs.

-"I was playing some MMORPG games, doing some personal stuff, getting some Thai massages on my fingers, etc. I wasn't able to play poker since I'm a broke ass donkey at the moment, but I will get back into that world very soon."

How's does it feel playing competitive HoN again? There has been talk that you're still far from your best back in the beta days. What do you think about that as well?

-"Yes, my rustiness pisses me off very often, but after playing around 80 games per day, I have recovered quite a bit. At the beginning of my comeback, my brain was functioning at a very low capacity and I couldn't help but think, 'Wow is this how bkid feels like?'. I am enjoying a lot of my games where I have trustworthy sidekicks such as fujiapples who will lick my ass for as low as 5 bucks per game."

Going straight into the CSN Finals against MSI. Pandamonium wasn't banned in all 3 games and you guys went for some heroes that don't feature in Loaded's conventional setup. Was it all a plan going into it?

-"Yes we are a very manly bunch, we were totally ready to face their panda strategies with a strategically sound anti lineups thoughtout solely by a strategic genius, Bkid."

What went wrong in Game 2? What was the thinking behind picking Night Hound? You guys seemed fairly confident judging by the speed of your picks.

-"I believe nothing went wrong at all, it was a strong strategy thought out by the one and only strategic genius Bkid, and we lost due to our incompetence. But in all seriousness, MSI played very well to counter NH, and we did a poorly thought out early game plan."

What do you think about HoN as an e-sport at the moment compared to the time when you left. Is it moving in the right direction?

-"I don't want to add any negative personal thoughts on it, but I do want to mention that there is much space for improvement and I hope HoN will one day achieve success."

With the world cup coming up, who do you see as your top 3 competitors for the title?

-"I'm still not fully aware of the current HoN competitive scene, but I feel that there is only one competitor for us right now, and that is MSI. If I had a cloning device, I'd definitely form 5 men Chu team and go up against Loaded. That'd be frigging sweet. Though It'd be a true challenge to convince one of the Chu's to play support."

Fun question to wrap this up, if you had to pick 5 current players to form an all-star team, and assuming you couldn't clone yourself, who would the members be?

-"I'd like to get fujiapples (to wipe my ass), bkid (brain of a monkey but strategic genius), dodo (sucks in hon but korean broski), and hanni (he will likely become a nubsie after army though)"

Ok I think that should do it. Thanks for your time. Any final comments to finish off this interview?

-"Shoutout to my old tofu brothers, shinvega, sexy, and aznexp!"
