Bdy: Hey Blaze, first off, tell us about yourself. Where you live, how old are you, what you like to do outside of gaming. What do you do to make a living?
And what are your dreams?
o8.Blaze: Hey mate. My name is Andrej Kurabasa I am 20 years old and live in Sweden. At the moment I am studying and some weekends I’m working as a pizza baker. What my dreams are? That’s a hard one. Get filthy rich and marry Natalie Portman will do as an answer? Bdy: How did you getting into online gaming, and how did you get your nickname? o8.Blaze: Well I started playing quake @ LANs with friends back somewhere in 1997 or something like that. It was quake that got me interested in gaming. But my first online game was star craft. So you can say that Star Craft got me into online gaming xD. Blaze just sounded cool have no other explanation xD. Bdy: So what games have you played before? What teams and with what players have you played with?
o8.Blaze: War Craft III, Battlefield, Diablo II (lol xD) quake III and some more. Don’t know exactly how I started to play ET, but when I did I got really attached to it. My first clan was Banana Troopers lol xD. Me and lotix playd there :P I think the rest have stopped gaming. Well actually I played with quite many players, in quite many teams. But I don’t want to mention the players cuz I might forget some and that’s not cool xD. But most of the players I ever played with are great guys. Bdy: You recently attended the Cpc with dMiZe, was it fun meeting people you had played with and versus online? And were you dissapointed with dMiZe's final
place at the lan?
o8.Blaze: Ye the dMiZe guys are great. I had an awesome time with them at CPC. Yes of course it was fun meeting people I have played with and versus online. Al the guys at the LAN where really cool. Ye I would lie if I said I was satisfied with dMiZe's final place at the LAN. But the whole experience was great. Bdy: The famous pictures of you laying around stoned while in your hostel and other places have been posted on Crossfire many-a-time since the LAN. Do you
think you 'antics' affected your play at the LAN?
o8.Blaze: Hehehehe looooooool xDDD. No comments xDDDD Bdy: There are alot of rumours going around about where the cpc2 will be, where do you personally want the LAN to be?
o8.Blaze: Well I don’t know. Rotterdam was nice so why not have it there again? Bdy: You are now playing for noll8, do you wish to attend the LAN again? Even if noll8 dont qualify.
o8.Blaze: Not qualify? That’s a joke right? xD Bdy: With noll8 recently announcing a new lineup for up coming cups and tornaments, what do you expect this team to acheive? What are your strengths
and weaknesses?
o8.Blaze: I like al the players in noll8 we are all good friends and I’m very confident in this new lineup. Well I expect us to do a good EC and play great at the next LAN. One of our strengths is that we are organised and have good communication. Weaknesses? What is that? It doesn’t exist in noll8 lol xD. Bdy: Aswell as noll8 announcing a new lineup you have announced that you are joining the mgc " inVidia-eSports " . What are the ins and outs of the deal?
o8.Blaze: Well yes we are joining inVidia-eSports. The management of inVidia-eSports are nice guys. They are giving us bnc's, servers and will try to give financial support for the LAN. Bdy: With noll8 being an all swedish speaking team do you think it gives you more fluency speaking on comms? And do you think it will be an advantage at LANS
with the other teams not being able to understand you?
o8.Blaze: Yes I think it’s an advantage when it comes to communication. On the LAN you should not be able to here the other team anyway lol :P Bdy: 5on5 or 6on6 has been one of the big arguements of Et in recent times, what are you thoughts? And which format do you prefer?
o8.Blaze: Well I think 5on5 fits noll8 better. And I was very sceptical I the beginning but now I really enjoy 5on5 more then 6on6. I think the next CPC LAN will decide if we will play 5on5 or 6on6. Bdy: What do you like about Et the most? o8.Blaze: The spam xD and like the ET spawn time system. Bdy: What do you dislike about Et the most? o8.Blaze: Well hard to say. All the cheats and a Punk Buster who almost never gets updated. Quick Questions:[/u]
Bdy: Pizza or Burger? o8.Blaze: Pizza ofc, I work at a pizza shop. Bdy: Et or Rtcw? o8.Blaze: ET Bdy: Swedish or Norweigen girls? o8.Blaze: Haha Swedish o/ Bdy: Gangsta shizzle music or hard rock hallelujah? o8.Blaze: Omg, real rock music. Bdy: Thanks for the interveiw mate, any Shoutouts? o8.Blaze: Thank you mate. No shoutouts this time :P
