KiWiKaKi is one of those StarCraft players that people never seem to be able to forget. "The Mad Scientist" is his unofficial nickname because of the crazy strategies he came up with back in the day, many times revolutionizing the way Protoss was played at the time.

KiWi is a Legend that was born and forged in ROOT, a member of the original family and a Legend in the World of StarCraft. He is back... at least for now. CatZ sat down with KiWiKaKi for a short interview and asked him a few questions pertaining to his future in StarCraft 2, and specifically Legacy of the Void.

Read more about it here on the ROOT website including an interview with Kiwi and a statement from CatZ himself.

WELCOME BACK KIWI! Dude is a fookin legend!
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)
