'Reflections' with GitzZz (28 comments)

( Major News: UT)

Posted by Thorin @ 15:32 CST, 22 January 2018 - iMsg

In the 129th episode of my "Reflections" series I interviewed

Christian "GitzZz" Höck, legendary Unreal Tournament dueller and multiple time champion (WCG 2001, WCG 2002 and ESWC 2003).

GitzZz talks about his world championship campaigns, his rivalries with players like

Lauke and

Burnie, the 'what if' matches that never happened vs.

destrukt and

FATAL1TY and even the present of Unreal esports.

His WCG final vs xspain on deck16 was absolutely sensational. My favourite ut99 player.

an episode with Czm would be very nice, have you tried to contact him Thorin or is he somewhat difficult to reach ?

Reaching him is probably the easy part. I doubt czm has much time as a lecturer and researcher.

Actually, I think lots of players are trying out the new UT called UT (but is basically UT4).

Most players at this point play the current free 2 play UT (pre-Alpha):

I might actually start playing it. QC managed what epic didn't manage all those years.

does the link gun still overheat and shit like that?

yes.

I'm actually playing a lot of utctf recently. It's not quake ctf, but in a way that's kinda nice. No german faggots sitting on mid with hitscan and camping for 20 mins cuz translocator.

Other than that, think not much people are left working on it due to epic redirecting all devs from paragon&ut to fortnite so it's kinda unclear what the future holds for the game.

Such a nice and humble guy. He really set a certain standard in UT with his aim style which made Germans play with hitscan weapons for over 10 years. Thanks for this Thorin.

I would really love to see an interview with

zulg. The most entertaining player to watch imo, great style, outside the box and supersmart.

I love this man.

No other fps gamer was better at their fave game than GitzZz was at UT99. Shout-out eVeNfLoW.
