See kids, this is what PRO gaming does to your brain! Just watch the Deadman interview and you will see the terrible side-effects caused by overplaying a game Laughing The "underdog part" is just priceless!

For those who are in the dark, Deadman is one of the best W3 players out there, and this interview was done before ESWC 2007 (Electronic Sports World Cup).

Hehe, Deadman had hard time to express himself. If the interview where in his native laungage, russian. I think the interview would turn out pretty well and understandable. Hehe
He is clearly absentminded hehe. Look away all of sudden, lose concentration, Hehe but well i guess it isnt easy to speak good english if you are a gamer. Hehe Gamers are very often abstract in their way of thinking. That was pretty obvious with deadman.

Ooh i forgot. its much harder to speak english, or any other laungage beside your mother tounge. Than writing it. I think i wouldnt do any better Happy hehe

"Cybersport have good future"

But what did deadman really said? Oo

I read the comments too. pfft.. when will people stop picking on one another for every last peccadilloes...

You know when its psyen (:

lol Happy

@psy: you´ve right but... I dont think they spoken in this interview firsttime together. I mean before every interview is some time for preparation. And he wasnt able to answer some of really easy questions

This is pure gold...I doubt that the way this interview turned out has anything to do with his english skillz cause some things he understood pretty good,anyway check comments below,carmac said so himself and I agree completely.

Apparantly he has a lot better english skills than that, when he talks aswell. A lot of people who know him suggest that he was exaggerating it to make it easier to avoid questions. Not that he needs to play dumb but whatever...

Also according to a lot of people who know him, play in the same team etc, he's a real ass and incredibly hard to deal with. It has nothing to do with gaming or professionalism (or rather the lack thereof), he's just a messed up kid.

I'm assuming most of what Trance wrote was joking, as far as I see the more professional gamers are the nicer/smarter/well mannered they are. This guy "only" plays at the lowest level of professionalism (i.e gets paid, does it for a living, but doesn't take it any further like many others - thresh, boxer, fatal1ty, destrukt, etc) and is an anomaly. Good for laughs only (if you like people making jackasses out of themselves, personally I don't, enough of that on every reality show on TV ^^).

@torz ofc it was meant as a joke ^^ Most pro gamers have indeed a serious and PROFESSIONAL attitude. This guy just wanted to avoid the questions and played dumb, showing what a real jackass he is, wasting Carmack's time.

Yeah, I think Carmac kinda likes that stuff though, I mean he's doing it himself several times with the "lantics" thing x)

No way professional players are nice. "fatal1ty" (or how ever it's typed) for example. He's a jerk.

You can't categorize people like that, it's stupid. So just because someone earns money by playing a game, he's a jerk? Lol....

Also, how would you know wether he is a jerk or not?

I know a few pro polish Q3 players myself, irl btw, and they're all good people.

Yeah if you wish to elaborate on how you define "jerk" and why you think that f.e Fatal1ty is one, I'll gladly take discussion with you but I do hope you come well prepared, because I do.

Or you can just be one yourself coming with bad/no arguments, which will without a shred of a doubt be the case considering the topic and instant failure statement.
