ESWC Starcraft division runner-up White-Ra is interviewed by Fomos.

White-Ra: "I will continue to participate in competitions."
"A game is just a game, I don't feel too disappointed."


[image loading]


Ukraine representative of the Starcraft division, (P)(ua)White-Ra lost to CJ's (T)IdrA and took the runner-up spot, on the match held on the 4th of May at the ESWC Asia Masters.

The following is the interview with White-Ra.

- Your thoughts on being a runner-up?
▲ A game is just a game. I do not feel so disappointed because I got second place.

- Did you feel a greater desire to win after defeating (T)ToSsGirL?
▲ At that point of time I wanted to win (the tournament), but now that I have lost, I think there is nothing much I can do about it.

- It is known that you are not really a young player.
▲ I juggle my life between work and gaming, so it is difficult for me to produce good results, but I am doing my best to do so.

- We are curious if you watch the Korean progaming leagues often.
▲ I watch the MSL and other leagues and I try to follow (the builds, strategies), but I prefer to make my own strategies through practice.

- Will you continue to take part in competitions?
▲ Of course. WCG included, I will participate in a variety of international tournaments. Whether if it is an offline or online tournament, I will take part in all of them.

But your way works!

Yeah, netizens love him. They're going like, "White-Ra's a pretty cool guy, eh? Plays game casually and even getting second place and doesn't afraid of anything."

White-Ra isn't in the Valor tournament is he? If he is, what is his name there?

Wanted to watch him compete in more stuff, he is so awesome \o/
Great people talk about ideas. Average people talk about things. Small people talk about other people.

Such a laid back and easy going guy. I think he's always been that way too. Probably just comes with age;)
