[s]interview[/s]
WCReplays just launched another interview with a top European player. This time it's the Danish player Rholle (picture), playing for team fnatic. The interviews circles around Danish gaming, WCG, WC3L and this year's ESL European Nations Cup. There is also a replay package available consisting of all of Rholle's WC3L Season 8 games, all Europeans Nation's Cup '05 matches and a bunch of other games - totally 49 replays.
In the Danish 2005 qualifiers for World Cyber Games, Rholle lost to his clanmate fnatic.Bjarke with 1-2. "I was disappointed after losing to Bjarke because I really, really had game two in my grasp - I went in idle mode when I thought I had won, and lost to mass Peasants and two heroes..." he says. Later on unityofsaits [the interviewer] asks what kind of relationship Bjarke and him have together, considering they're from the same nation. Rholle says that he sees Bjarke as a great training partner. "We test tactics on each other a lot" he says. He also points out that they are only competitors in national tournaments.
His team, fnatic (picture) did quite good in WC3L, ending at sixth place in the end. They played SK in the WC3L online playoff, and lost with 1-4. Rholle was pretty disappointed with that, and in the interview, they bring up this:
unityofsaints: Your team fnatic played a strong clanwar versus SK in the the WC3L playoff, taking one match and two maps in the other solo matchups. Were you disappointed with this outcome, or proud that your team was able to hold off the more highly-rated SK squad so well?
fnatic.Rholle: I can't say that I'm not disappointed. In the two 1v1s we lost 1:2, both third maps were regames because fnatic.Creo disconnected in a game with great advantage and fnatic.triMble crashed the game between fnatic.SaSe and SK.ElakeDuck, where SaSe had an advantage. We then lost the regames and that just blows - sh*t happens. We reached our goal in WC3L for this season which was to reach the playoffs. Next year we will go all the way!
They also talk about racial balances, the future of WarCraft III and much more. And when you're done with the interview, there's 49 Rholle replays to watch.
