made some changes in their QuakeLive roster lately. First they removed their Clan Arena/TDM team after picking up some very good duelers (
_burn3d). These Players will represent them in cups and ladders. The first achievement was the 1st place in the
GaB.skillah: Yo burn3d, wazz up? First tell me who you are and why you liked to join GaB?
_burn3d: Hello, I am _burn3d , a 14 years old Gamer from Belgium. I liked to join the GaB Clan because there are some good players and some good activities on it.
GaB.skillah: You are 14? Wow thats pretty young for a "professional Gamer" So tell me, when did you start with Gaming?
_burn3d: First, I am not even a professional Gamer, i just play a lot and i improving by playing some good players on QuakeLive. Hmm,i started gaming like more than one year (Quake 3 OSP) total, because i made a lot of breaks (School, Holidays , ... )
GaB.skillah: I ask me, what think your parents about Gaming? Because it seems that you spend lot of times with practice etc.
_burn3d: Well, It's true i am practicing a lot but i have things to do too, my Parents just don't want that i be a bad boy so they aren't very worried about this, but sometimes yes they are nervous when i stay quite late in front of my Computer :P
GaB.skillah: If you spend so much time with your Pc, do you have time for other hobbies? And what other things you do?
_burn3d: I used to do some gymnastics after school (3h/day) but i stopped in the last year, i don't have real hobbies but i like spending some times with Friends or family because it's summer at the moment
GaB.skillah: For the moment runs the Quake Live Duel Cup from quake.cz, in that Cup you played against Blanka in the Loser Bracket Final, i was really suprised that you played 2:3 (Blanka won), i mean he is a Top5 Player from Poland, were you surprised by your own performance?
_burn3d: I was a quite sad because we didn't had the chance to see
mTw|smoke vs
Blanka, what could be a really fun game to watch and well it was my first Cup so i was really stressed at the start.I lost by one point in the last map ( like
fazz t4 sudden death ) so well i think he is a bit more skilled than me so i am gonna train with him.
GaB.skillah: After your "big performances" in this Cup, i mean you played against really good Players, what do you want to achieve next?
_burn3d: I want to improve on Internet, and learn how to play with under some pressure. But well, i am gonna play more Cups and practice more so.
GaB.skillah: Sounds good =), so you think that QuakeLive will have a great future in the eSport?
_burn3d: It's hard to say because a lot of people prefer Q3 instead of QL, I personally enjoy both so i really don't know. Let's see in a few years. BTW, I hope so =)
GaB.skillah: If you could change anything in QuakeLive,
what would you change?
_burn3d: I would add Hub3aeroq3 map for sure, Some more possible commands like on CPMA (shaft graphic settings) and maybe fix some more little bugs.
GaB.skillah: Yep this would be very cool. Which players, if any did you look up to when starting out in Quake? And who is your favorite player now?
_burn3d: Well my favorite players are good mentality players, but if you ask me the bests players in QL, i would say
noctis,
stermy,
strenx and
spart1e.
GaB.skillah: What is your favorite map?
_burn3d: I don't have a favorite map, I just dislike T6 and CA2.
GaB.skillah: I won’t hold you up any longer burn3d, many thanks for taking the time to talk to me today and all the best for the future mate. Anything you would like to add? Also i wish you all good for playing in Geh aB Clan.
_burn3d: Well i just want to thanks all players who trains with me and all GaB players for sure! Thanks you :)
