Special thanks to @Nemesys022 for the banner because I'm terrible at PS



During his recent



+ Show Spoiler + - Overall how do you feel about your Code A matches?

Well, I was very nervous from the start, I felt more nervous when I entered the booth.



- During game 1 you looked like you were in trouble, but you came back fighting hard - were you surprised Bboongbbong had no Infestors?

I wasnt surprised at all. When I scouted with my observer, there weren't a lot of workers so if i defended well, I knew I had this game, and he was producing broodlords, not infestors and it was only a few so I knew I had this game



- Were nerves an issue? And if so, how did you overcome them to win the game?

I was very nervous, but I told to myself that I will do my best regardless of the result of the game. Maps were also not so bad for Protoss, so I thought I could make it.



- In game 2 the Zergling run-by got inside your main - did you change your plans after that happened?

My plans changed a lot, so I tried to be greedy, but unfortunately it failed. T_T



- In game 3 you were very brave and went for a proxy 2gate on Antiga Shipyard - did you practice this or was it just a risk build?

The day before the match, I was talking with my teammate Sickness about this build, but never tried it.



- You had a fortunate route getting in to Code A, by receiving BYEs until the final match against SlayersCella. Is there anything you want to tell the people who thought that it was a fluke and that you wouldn't win a single match?

The player who I played was previous code S player. I knew it would be hard for me. But my thoughts changed a lot when many people helped me practice. Also diss[disrespecting me] means another way of attention, so its not so bad after all. Please watch me till I gain my code A slot back!



- What do you think of the support that was given to you during your games by your teammates and fans online?

Thank you guys a lot for your support and care. Now I’m done with my school problems

so please give me unconditional support!



- People on the international Starcraft forums Teamliquid and Reddit were calling you "Gandalf" the wizard Protoss, what do you think of this nickname?

I really appreciate my nickname and I really like it. Now I want to be acknowledged not just by luck but also my skill. so I will work hard and when I comeback I guarantee I will stay in better shape.



- What’s your practice regimen like? Who did you practice with?

My zerg teammates helped a lot, special thanks to FXOJKS, and wulongstorm. wulongstorm helped me a lot like giving me replays etc. also my ur[local clan] family members helped



- Please tell us what you feel to be the strength and weakness of the Protoss race in the current meta-game?

From my perspective, protoss gets better in late games. I think it depends how you defend pressures early-mid situation. I don’t really think protoss is too strong.



- Do you feel your strength is in your play, and do you have a favourite matchup, and a least favourite matchup?

I always plan to play safe, long macro oriented games. because even though I may lose I want to plan out something. I dont want to lose doing nothing. I like playing against Zerg. defending Zerg pressures is fun. But my least confident matchup is against Protoss. There are a lot of build orders and counter build orders. and I feel like I chose the wrong one.



- Lastly do you have anything else to your fans and any of your future plans with your career and dtG? Will you be back for Code A next season?

I'll practice and prepare a lot till I`m in my best shape. I am now done with my conflicts in school and now I cleared my mind to be a professional gamer. In team dtG, there are a lot of good players so you'll see them in gsl very soon. And also I'll prepare a lot so I can get myself back to code a slot. So please watch me and give me unconditional support :D







If you'd like to see more of GGanDoL there are some casts on my channel, and there will be more soon.



Thanks! During his recent code A debut up against BBoongBbongPRIME - GGanDoL was an underground hit around the foreign scene - despite going down 1-2 after some rough-and-tumble matches with B4, GGanDoL showed that there was great potential, coming back from the brink of defeat in game 1, and throwing in some fantastic cheese in game 3 to try and secure the set. I got an interview with my teammate GGanDoL the "Wizard Protoss" to ask him how he felt about the matches.If you'd like to see more of GGanDoL there are some casts on my channel, and there will be more soon.Thanks!
