"WCG is the main goal of every gamer"
How does it feel to be qualified for WCG Philippines 2011 grand finals?
- I feel very happy and lucky for being one of the 8 players that qualified because I think WCG is the main goal of every gamer in the world.
What can we expect from you in the WCG Grand Finals?
- An exciting and entertaining series of games IF I make it to the finals.
WCG Grand Finals will be held at PGF which is said to be the biggest and grandest Gaming event in the Philippines this year. How are you preparing for this event?
- I try to figure out my mistakes in every game that I lose and the mistakes of my opponents when I win. I play on the NA and KR ladder 5-10 games every weekend and 2-3 games on weekdays because of school.
Who do you think will be the toughest opponent you will be facing in the tournament?
- I'm expecting some good, unorthodox strategies coming out from SteelHeart. But the toughest opponent for me is still my teammate JaBiTo.
Any last words/ shoutouts to the Philippine StarCraft community?
- Thank you for all the support! I will do my best for StarCraft 2 Philippines!
