Since I watched all White-Ra's streams and noticed that people tend to repeat exactly same questions, I decided to create a little FAQ relying on White-Ra's answers. Here it is.

White-Ra FAQ

Why you never wall off playing against zerg?
If zerg see that you don't have wall he may produce 6-8 zerglings instead of drones, thus weakening his economy. To defend it you should save 3rd chronoboost before scout your opponent. If you see lings, build fast zealot and defend with your probes using micro. Or after scout lings coming, you may in time build wall, before they reach your base. That's why usually I don't build wall. However sometimes I can build it.
Where can I find your replays?

Do you have work beside being pro gamer?
Yes, I write articles for Russian gaming magazine. Previously I worked at TV channel.
How much do you practice during a day?
6 hours per day at the average. I think 25 games per day is enough, sometimes I play more.
What mouse/keyboard do you use?
Mouse: Thermaltake Tt eSPORTS black
Keyboard: Tt eSPORTS MEKA G1
How you prepare to important game?
I try to find replays of my opponent and prepare special build order to counter his style. Or I use defensive style and play very cautiously.
Do you have Twitter/Facebook/YouTube?

Why "White-Ra"?
I like Egyptian mythology where "Ra", as you know, is a god of Sun, also in our coastal city sun has big meaning, where in summer we love to swim in Black Sea. When I started play, there was team in my city called "White", which I joined. I like the color and despite the fact that such team no longer exists, I made this word part of my nickname.
Why you chose to play Protoss?
Prior to 2003 I played as random. At WCG 2003 I played a lot of matches as random and most of times it was uncomfortable matchups for me. Playing protoss I gained more stable success. Therefore after WCG 2003 I decided to play protoss. In SC2 I decided not to change my race, because protoss has a lot of interesting technologies which allows to combine them in many ways and create big amount of different strategies.
How much long you plan to stay a pro gamer?
Maybe 1 year or little more. It depends on how much good results I will show, and how much support I will receive from community.
