A few days ago the translation of an interview with Draco, organized by Ekii and published on Netwars was released here on GosuGamers. Here is a new interview with the Polish Protoss published on FighterForum, and partly translated by TeamLiquid.
You probably remember about that controversial interview with Draco that GosuGamers brought to you with the help of
Musli. The Korean website
FighterForum.com has just interviewed the popular Protoss player, but unfortunately only some little parts of this interview have been translated to English yet. Let's hope that more of it will be published very soon. “ As long as Starcraft remains popular I will live the life of a progamer.”- Draco, August 2006. |
Krzysztof "Draco" Nalepka has just been accepted to the OnGameNet SPARKYZ. A few days later, he says: "I will not waste this opportunity. I want to make people remember that there was a Polish gamer who could compete with Korea’s best." Indeed, Draco got a great opportunity to recieve his progaming licence, even though he did not pass the Courage Tournament, like his countrymate SunCow.In this article, we learn that Draco considers Korea as the "land of dreams", a country in which everything is possible when it comes to video gaming. Since the French Terran progamer
ElkY left progaming to Poker, and also left the top30 of the KeSPa rankings in early 2004, no foreign player performed that well in this country except maybe the famous Aussie 
Legionnaire who made some really cool moves during his (too short) career. Then,
Draco is showing his ambition to be the next non-Korean player who will be able to compete against the best Korean players and to climb to the top of the big Korean competitions. Thus, when he's asked about the possibility to come back to his country, he replies "I have no plans to return to my home country, unlike others before me. As long as Starcraft remains popular I will live the life of a progamer." Let's wish that this great player will be able to make it, and to show to the country of StarCraft that this game still exists in the rest of the world, and that non-Korean players can still do it! |
