Shaman has been the Romanian WCG representative for three years, 2002, 2003 and 2004 and considered by many the best Romanian StarCraft player out there. Though George is humble and says:
- I think I’m regarded as the best Romanian ever because of my results, because there aren’t so many great players in Romania and because I’ve stayed on top many years, he says and adds that they had great players back in 2001.

The interview brings up a lot of facts about George Ciurescu, but focuses mostly on his Romanian dominance and his inactivity because of poker. Below is a snippet from the interview.
MYM.vhallee: Where do you play these days? Assuming you still play any ladders...

xLo.Shaman: Nah, I didn’t play any other ladder since PGT... Nowadays I’m quite inactive, playing 1-2 games per week. Even many of my f list have deleted me, darn traitors :P

MYM.vhallee: What is the main reason for which you don't play as much as you used to?

xLo.Shaman: The main reason I guess its poker and the second is that I don’t feel motivated anymore to play at a competitive level.
