Hey guys. I'm Alex Rodriguez, or Axeltoss. I'm a StarCraft 2 commentator for MLG and I am on ROOT gaming (as well as host of their show: Decision Making). Recently I've started a little interview series with members of the E-sports community and I'd like to share what I've done so far, as well as receive suggestions for future episodes.
Here is the first episode with Destiny (Steven Bonnell II). I understand he is a bit of a controversial figure in the SC2 scene, but we had a nice conversation about E-sports in general, not focusing too much on his switch to league of legends:
Behind The Scene: Destiny
For the second episode I tracked down Jonathan Burton, the creator and mastermind of the CarbotAnimations series "Starcrafts". We had a great conversation about his history and what goes into the creation of the series:
Behind The Scene: Carbot Animations
For the third episode I convinced Juan "Major" Lopez, the only foriegner on a kespa team, to stay up late to talk with me about his transition to korea and potential participation in Proleague.
Behind The Scene: Major
That's all I have for now, I am currently lining up additional E-sports personalities, figures, and players to continue this through the new year. Please feel free to provide some suggestions for who you would like to see interviewed and I will do my best to make it happen.
I will also keep this thread updated as new episodes occur.
Thanks and happy new year!
