Hey Loda,

Who's the player you respect the most (not including your teammates), both internationally and those in the Chinese scene?

Among SEA teams, who do you see as potential dark horses for TI3 (excluding Zenith and Orange)?

What's the difference between playing carry back in the MYM Pride days and playing carry now in Dota 2?

Do you think Huskar, Treant, and Spirit Breaker can be used competitively?

As opposed to kicking a teammate out of someone else's team? Not sure what you're even trying to say because it makes no sense.

The good news here is that it doesn't matter because this isn't the place to discuss it so knock it off.

Hi Loda:

If you were to start an eSport team and recruit some people for the SC2 roster. Which SC2 pros would you select and why?

+ Is there any other Swedish eSport person you respect outside the NTH team?

I suppose I ask the questions here..?

You have often been critisised of being the weak link of nth or at the very least being someone with too much influence on the team for the team's own good, how do you cope with this critique and what do you think of it, as is it something you need to work on or is it complete gibberish?

Also, what's the largest difference between being on nth and on SK?


Haha well critique like this is obviously annoying to read or hear, but the public really has no clue whats going on within the teams, they like to guess and presume but its usually far from the truth Me having too much influence in a team THAT I CREATED is a weird oppinion. Especially since the results speak for themselves. But obviously I have flaws that I have to work on. But in our team we strive to be better and therefore we are not afraid to make mistakes.

Actually the difference between SK and nth is not so different. Ever since the SK days ive been trying to build a team of great synergy, trust and pretty much... friendship! Though I believe nth has a higher skill cap.

Wanted Tephus to ask this in the interview but he didn't get round to it...how did you meet KellyMilkies? And how did you feel being thrown into the Singaporean culture? What's your favourite dish from Singapore?


Me and Kelly have some mutual friends whom I met at eswc 2008. Somehow we got in contact and started chatting. Pretty much we became really really good friends, but we never met up. long story short we met at DH winter 2011, i begged her to let me stay at her hotel room (since we got scammed by sponsor), and from that moment ive been in love with her.

I love the Singaporean culture, it reminds me a lot of Sweden in some weird ways. And my Favorite dish would prolly be... Hm SALTED EGG CRAB!

Very hard to say, I agree to an extent with Maelk. I feel SK has made questionable decisions in the past etc, but I mean atleast their lol team has Ocelote!

Hey Loda!

I was just wondering who is the one team and or player that you just hate playing against? not for personal reasons but just because of in game skill. For instance I would think most players would hate having to lane against Admiral Bulldogs Lone druid because he can control the lane so well with the bear.


Thanks man for doing this shows community love :D

Cool interview.

When you say "Most of the heroes are viable", do any jump out as never being viable? It's one of my dreams to see rarely played heroes like Medusa or Timbersaw in a professional game :D


Im not sure about Dusa, but Timbersaw should alrdy be viable.
