She's asking smart questions jesus and leading into the big ones. If she starts being aggressive he's not going to say anything.


Uhmmm... this is prerecorded, dude. And if you are smart enough to notice, all the questions did was to give Gus "Criminal" Ledesma a chance to dodge.

Did you talk to David Ting:

"Uhh let me think, I'm trying to remember if......wait...*sigh* k can I just open my e-mail quick just uh *typing*. We weren't in contact during the you know that time I think I was pretty busy communicating with the rest of my crew on how day 2 should have been and how it should pan out"

How the hell can you forget to talk to your fucking BOSS during the event? This is so hard to watch. You can just see the poor hamsters in his brain rolling around, trying to think of any lie he can think of to bullshit us.

What changes did you put in place?

"Umm well first of all you know I got in touch with all the parties invovled and umm all the support groups got on a call with them to make sure we were all on the first page. I set expectations for the event for day 2 so everybody would know what was supposed to happen at this point and how it should be flawless at the start of day 2. We did incur some issues during day 2 with uhh with the uhh connection and umm I guess it was umm there it was pointed out there was a cable on the floor people were stepping on I think that was the reason the connection to the machines in the open area/booth were lagging really hard. That so far was the result of the umm investigations we did during that time"

What is the point of this interview if you guys are just going to call him a criminal no matter what?
I'm just as pissed at the guy as you, but I'm at least trying to hear him out before I crucify him.

This guy... How can someone like that be given the responsebility to run an entire event. Not only can you not understand a single word, but he also is most apparently making up lies on the fly.

Some statements, like the things he said in the beginning of the interview, sound like poorly rehearsed phrases; probably also searched for some lawyer advice before the interview...

Hon Tournament:

"Ummm the HONslaught tournament could not go as planned due to the issues during day 1 and day 2 and if we had been on schedule it would have been included in the event. It was supposed to be seperate to coincide with IPL4 but due to issues that you and I were aware of it wasnt possible. I wouldnt want to start the HON tournament without enough time for the players to like umm set things up to move the games I wouldnt want to rush anybody to finish games for the schedule it wouldnt be right"

Philo esports fan opinions:

"There were some who approached me personally and umm thanked me for bringing in people like yourselves over here umm there was a mixed reaction from the crowd there were people who were appreciative of the even and how it turned out I dont think it was a failure umm had I had more support then we wouldnt be having this conversation I guess"

Event on the whole:

"I think umm you know all major events suffer technical blowbacks once or twice, we were not spared of issuesl iek those id like to say that after all the technical difficulties we learned and adapted and day 2 was a lot better. The the crowd was extatic I could sense a lot of enthusiasm especially during the semis and finals. A lot of people went on to cheer for their favourite players. We even went to far as to buy boards and pens for them to write on to support their favourite players"
