Hey TL
Finally had a chance to upload the interview I did with 1Goal1Dream aka Deezer yesterday in LA. I took most of the legit questions that people submitted online and asked away. Feast your eyes on exclusive first-ever footage of the most infamous SC2 player in history and judge away.

Topics range from why he started trolling, how mod he is, what he thinks of Catz and Destiny, and how he wants to beat off InControl

i love how he treats the camera as if it is his morning mirror


But yeah, he is still the same. The only thing that keeps him from doing his stuff is the tribunal, as he said himself.

Even if I had never heard of him I would have him filed away as a douche after this video.
Watched only 2 minutes though, kind of unbearable.

Wow Deezer slammed me in the interview
Thanks for doing it Guitar! Was an interesting watch. He seems like a pretty odd dude in real life. Really disconnected from the world is what it seemed to me.

Is he serious with the "beat off" thing, like even as a troll, or is he misunderstanding it as "beat up"? I can't tell with this guy jesus.

He's french, but it's still really funny that he's saying it wrong.

You might also want to change the title of the thread to "World's last interview with Deezer."

He used to constantly stream snipe popular SC2 streamers such as Destiny, Incontrol, Minigun and CatZ and stream cheat (what he refers to as "ghosting" in the interview). This was very frustrating for people who were forced to have to play him over and over again while at a disadvantage and also annoying for a lot of the people watching the streams. He was notorious for his persistence and omnipresence. He also had a very rude/cocky attitude toward the players he was sniping and used a lot of racist insults against CatZ.

He may have done other stuff too, but that's basically what I remember him being hated for.

The racist insults were not only at CatZ. He'd frequently call any Korean pro, or random guy he lost against, racist asian names. + Show Spoiler +
The term fucking chink came up a lot referring to asians of any descent.

I feel bad making these kinds of generalizations but...French Canadians can often be a little...let's say...backward?

He says he's from Montreal but was he born there? I'm curious.

Edit: Wow I just watched more of this.....it has nothing to do with him being French Canadian. It looks like there's something legitimately wrong with him guitar, like ASD wrong maybe? Like I know you were desperate and all, and I'm up for giving people a chance to clear their name but....I can't believe just hanging out with him wasn't enough to turn you off of him.

People who need psychological treatment shouldn't be given such a public stage, it's simply not healthy for them. And we want people to be healthy, especially when considering the gun laws over there.

That's one thing, maybe he actually is retarded(or mentally challenged or whatever it is nowadays) but the retarded people I have known / witnessed generally haven't been going around cussing at everyone and making the whole world their enemies. If they're cool people treat them cool is what I've seen.

so i kinda thought most of it was an act i also think maybe he has some mental problem but like i know his sc2 past and yes h got a perma on LoL but there's way to much hate i mean he tried to go legit aka join a team practice play then gets flamed anyway might aswell go back to acting like a douche right ? if your gonna get treated like shit anyway.

like i think he was brave saying who he was he coulda just gone with the persona 1g1d like he was honest with gtr and ultimately it fucked himself over and got him all this hate.

Funny guy but also a bit retarded (couldn't really count how many tics he has). I personally don't hate him though. He just did what he did to have fun. Even though it might have been annoying for streamers to get sniped in the ladder all the time,I don't think it hurt their viewer base that much, if anything, he made the stream more interesting. So I guess the streamers shouldn't really hate on him either.

Thanks for doing it Guitar! Was an interesting watch. He seems like a pretty odd dude in real life. Really disconnected from the world is what it seemed to me.

thank you for submitting a question. i only had like 5 or 6 questions myself, i'm not really a great interviewer yet (as you can tell by me having no clue whether to look at deezer or into the camera haha). and yes, of all the words that people are using to describe him, i think disconnected is the best. there were several common courtesies that he didn't understand or follow at all, and when i tried to clue him in on some things he was doing that were annoying, he seemed oblivious to change. it's possible it's a french-canadian thing (i've never been to canada nor do i know any of their culture, so i don't know how much of his behavior was 'normal' for someone from montreal), it's possible it was a person-who-spends-all-their-time-online thing (having met most of the notable and high elo players, i can say that MANY of them have really strange personality quirks that other people don't have) or it could have been a deezer exclusive thing. either way, disconnected is a great word for it. glad you liked it!

this was 100% a phrase lost in translation. he was definitely trying to say "beat you up." once he said that i knew it was going to be comedy gold and i had to roll with it. immediately after the camera stopped rolling i cracked up and told him what the difference was between the two turns of phrase and he didn't care. i didn't do a re-take because i felt he could afford a laugh at his own expense

yeah, his constant corrections on <what kind of car he drove, how much money he made, how many girls he had, etc etc> were pretty damn funny. it would always be like "bahck hohme i drive my family's jeeeep - i mean it in my name, it's my jeeeep and it's fockin huuge."

No matter how you spin it Guitar, Deezer is still Deezer.

i don't think i'm trying to spin it in any way. i've been pretty clear that i made a mistake. i haven't tried to defend his past actions. i wouldn't be going forward with him as a player after this event, even if he was allowed to play past this event. i made a really bad crunch-time decision and i rolled with it and it didn't pan out. before he gets shamed out of league and has to move on to another game, i thought i'd give him a chance to explain himself and apologize to the people who he's hurt. he clearly didn't want to and i wasn't going to force it outta him. no spin at all - what you see is entirely candid.

This guy is way too weird. Let that be a lesson to you guitar, lol. Interview people before you let them practice with your team for 2 whole days.

and let me iterate again that he was rational, talented, and honest during both the interview that i did conduct with him before his tryout, and during practice leading up to the event. any quirks i heard online i chalked up to language barrier. unfortunately, management isn't my only job, i work 50+hours a week at a physical job as well. my time was extremely limited and i was under a lot of pressure to make the right call. i made a huge mistake by not heeding the warnings that a couple TLers sent my way, and in the end, i let the players make the decision. they voted him on 3-1, with one player saying he wouldn't play at all if we didn't pick 1g1d. i did push for using dx30, our substitute, because he's been subbing mid for pr0lly for the past 5 months or so when pr0lly couldn't make it. but a few days before the event, dx30 had a bad game and one of the members of the team attacked him so viciously for it that he just up and left and said don't even bother considering me any more. now why didn't i stop this attack? again, the perils of an 8-6 job :\ it all happened when i wasn't around and wasn't able to keep everyone cool. it sucks. the whole team is under a lot of stress since pr0lly left and tensions are extremely high. just gotta press on though. would it have been worth it to not take 1g1d and have to then replace ANOTHER player? who knows. these 18-20 year olds are all very tricky to deal with

I feel bad making these kinds of generalizations but...French Canadians can often be a little...let's say...backward?
He says he's from Montreal but was he born there? I'm curious.
Edit: Wow I just watched more of this.....it has nothing to do with him being French Canadian. It looks like there's something legitimately wrong with him guitar, like ASD wrong maybe? Like I know you were desperate and all, and I'm up for giving people a chance to clear their name but....I can't believe just hanging out with him wasn't enough to turn you off of him.

at no point did he come across as mentally challenged to me. it's his persona through and through. too lazy to fully learn english, too caught up in himself to change his attitude. and trust me, hanging around with him WAS enough to turn me off him haha. he was pretty annoying to be around in person and we wouldn't be moving forward with him regardless of this tourney's results. he drove everyone crazy.

in my eyes, 100% a role

like i think he was brave saying who he was he coulda just gone with the persona 1g1d like he was honest with gtr and ultimately it fucked himself over and got him all this hate.

yes, i do appreciate his honesty. i don't really feel sorry for him, especially because he doesn't show any remorse, but i am glad he was at least honest about it.

Funny guy but also a bit retarded (couldn't really count how many tics he has). I personally don't hate him though. He just did what he did to have fun. Even though it might have been annoying for streamers to get sniped in the ladder all the time,I don't think it hurt their viewer base that much, if anything, he made the stream more interesting. So I guess the streamers shouldn't really hate on him either.

have you seen the movie "unbreakable," with bruce willis and samuel jackson? in it, samuel jackson plays a person with a physical handicap, who manipulates the world around him to cause awful things to happen, including the deaths of many, many people. it's justified in his eyes because he believes that if people like himself exist (those with handicaps), then people on the opposite end of the spectrum exist as well (those with physical extraordinaire). by hurting many many people, he hopes to find someone who survives the pain he inflicts and becomes an exceptional hero because of it. this part is played by bruce willis, a man who never gets hurt, never gets sick, is extremely strong, etc. eventually + Show Spoiler +
bruce becomes a vigilante of sorts and finds out the true identity of jackson. jackson reveals that he knows he's a villain but he believed he was doing good in the end. bruce is extremely emotionally torn, of course

i don't want to parallel 1g1d to jackson too much, but there are similarities. he honestly doesn't see that what he was doing was so wrong. you might even argue that 1g1d has a handicap. maybe you are the bruce willis here, sympathetic because he's made you a better person through it all

Not familiar with SC2 at all, didn't know anything about Deezer before this, deleted him off friends list after seeing this, shame that he was a good player and didn't seem to be too much of a malcontent.

Deezer put in a complaint to take it down after people apparently told him "i exploited him" and "made him look like a fool." Since i never actually got written consent to do the interview, we were forced to take it down. Which is pretty crazy since he was clearly consenting to these questions but w/e. i guess he can just fade into nothingness now, RIP in peace

If anything I felt like you were giving him the benefit of the doubt and trying to encourage him to salvage his reputation. I guess he realized he made himself look bad and decided to cry foul.

Somebody like that doesn't 'realize' anything. I'm sure he is fully convinced that the world is out to get him all the time, whether true or not.

I think he is either legit retarded/mentally stunted or doesn't take the scene seriously enough. Either way, RIP.

Kind of pity him honestly. For all we know he is emotionally crippled to the point where he can't/won't admit fault and it comes across as douchebaggery.

If anything, players should fill complaints about receiving "physical threats" from him, not like he could deny it after talking about it in so much videos. That would teach him a lesson.
