I'm in dire need of some respite from a lack of things to do right now (this afternoon.) I'm at work, but there is no planning etc left to do so feel free to ask me anything (esports related or not *braces herself*)

I know recently a lot of things have changed for me - so the answers to my older threads/interview are very different these days.

Also people keep asking me what certain gamers/events are like IRL so if you're curious please give me something to do!

P.S. If anyone has any non-photo related requests the feel free to post them here - I know some people were interested in information about stuff beyond just photos.

*Facepalms* No matter how hard I try I always forget about it. There will be - the prizes are just lying round in my apartment gathering dust. I'll try to pick some winners asap and send out the prizes around the March 10th mark (when I get paid to be able to afford the shipping.)

Neither one has won a Star League therefore I am indifferent to both.

I prefer Backho.

In most of the PL/WL matches I've watched, most players on the "benches" or "sidelines" seem pretty sedate. In your experiences, which teams/players seem to be the craziest or most energetic while sitting over there on the sidelines?

I love you for this question. Sometimes it tends to vary depending upon which event it is. However, recently the team which is the most animated at times happens to be a surprising one.

CJ players might seem all -__- CJ face. However, I've seen Xellos trying to stick small keychains down other players' shirts, Savior and GGplay (now Woongjin) grooming Darkelf's hair and Iris giving Movie (and anyone else he can get his hands on.) crushing bear hugs. Also with the addition of Effort I've now also seen a CJ player in tears and the rather heart-warming level of support he recieved from the older players such as Savior and Much. Much himself sometimes sits on the speakers during breaks swinging his legs.

It's not particularly 'crazy' - however, We Made Fox have taken over MBC Heroes crown as the 'Team which demolishes their food fastest.' Those guys rip through the Fox logo-ed snacks and candies before game one is even over.

PL and WL do seem a bit more sedate in general this season due to the down-turn in extravagant ceremonies (which is a shame.) However, there are still characters who chat and mess about from the various teams (Chalrenge, By.Baby, Rock, Midas, Iloveoov etc.)

Because they're sponsored by Le Coq Sportif - I have one of them and they're really nice quality. I gave my spare to Lilsusie.

At first I believed OZ was a really serious and somewhat anti-social team in comparison to some of the others (like OGN sparkyz or MBC Heroes.) However, this is just their event behaviour. They're a very focused team at WL/PL and it's easy to mistake the lack of chatting/overt happiness during events as a lack of emotion.

However, I've shot Backho (funny, cheerful and loves his small, but loyal fan group.) ForGG (Extremely polite, speaks some English and easy to work with.) and Jaedong (Also very polite and professional.) Lomo is possibly the shyest member outside of events (he gets flustered easily at photo shoots.)

Their fan meetings are interesting - they generally mingle with the fans in small groups (or in JD's case a big group.) I've seen the assistant coach playing tag with fans and they're considered to run some of the most fun fan meets by Korean fans (according to my sources.) JD seems to be one of the most out-going members with the Korean fans and if you've seen their cross-dressing/tektonic video then it's not hard to gather from that; that OZ really does care about their fans and strives to socialise with them often through fan club events and normal WL/PL.

TY for answering my previous question- maybe they don't feed WeMade that much in the team house...

Recently, a lot of people berated KTF's coaches for sending out Flash when KTF was down 3-0 or 3-1, thinking that this increased workload nearly singlehandedly led to his elimination from both StarLeagues. However, a progamer already usually practices for many hours a day. So, again, based on what you've seen in real life, do you think that Flash's WL workload caused his elimination from the MSL and OSL?
