Being one of the few players remaining from the good old blooming days, Stermy's definitely an icon of professional gaming. Considered to be as one of the most successful of all time - with an incredible amount of winnings behind his back - the man earned his popularity within the title he adores the most – Quake. Alessandro started his career back in 2001, and has since been dominating every aspect of the competitive gaming scene. The global star hasn't however restricted himself only to his in-game commitments, as he organized various series of events for the community he truly loves, most notably the Ultimate Gaming Championship. During this interview - which, unfortunately, turned out to be rather short for my liking – we tried to cover a few aspects such as his standing within Quake's current painful situation, as well as a few sneak peeks regarding the upcoming edition of UGC. A couple of comical questions have been added to spice things up; so please, feel free to read the following article.

You have been a part of the Quake scene almost forever, and even though we can not see you participating in duel events anymore, you are the founding stone of arguably the best TDM team in the game. Why do you think other teams can't get the better of you?

I think the competition at Dreamhack Summer 2011 was amazing and there were definitely a few teams that could have put a good fight against us. I managed to create a solid team that works great together, our chemistry and our skills compensate eachother styles and works great in QuakeLive. We all have a lot of experience and know eachother for a very long time, we know what to do in most of the situation and how to prepare in the best way possible. I think one of our biggest strengths is that we can study our weaknesses very well and work together to improve as a team.
