Interview: CnC 3: Kane's Wrath Champion, Vicviper

Spotgamers managed to meet up with the Kane's Wrath Champion after his victory at the WCG Malaysia Finals beating Viral.V2 and [r0r1]Alpha. After getting second place at the CELgames in July, losing to Ravana, he proves to Malaysia that he is the best CnC3 player you can find in Malaysia.

Here is the interview:

Spotgamers: Can you give us a introduction about yourself?

VicViper: My name is Amir Azlan, I am 23 years old. A recent graduate with a degree in
Computer Engineering. Currently just started working as a civil servant.

Spotgamers: Congrats on your win at the WCG 2008, how do you feel after winning it
it for the first time?

VicViper: Thanks. I am definitely very happy and excited about my first win. In total I entered
WCG 3 times, so I guess 3rd time is lucky strike for me

Spotgamers: You won in the Celgames 1st runner up, did that give you confidence in
the WCG Malaysia?

VicViper: Definitely. The most important thing i've learnt during Celgames is to always stay
calm during your matches. It definitely helps you to think straight and also boosts my
confidence greatly

Spotgamers: Do you think [r0r1]Alpha was still a challenge even though you won the
Celgames?

VicViper: Yup. Alpha definitely poses a threat cause he is still a very good player. But my greatest
challenge was during the Celgames finals vs Ravana and also WCG quarterfinals vs AKTemujin

Spotgamers: As the Grand Finals is approaching, how much time do you take to train?

VicViper: Right now i've just starting my career, so I have to find a balance between work and my training. Right now routine stuffs like watching replays and playing some games still
goes on. Generally 1 or 2 hours per day would suffice. And no, I dont do any "hardcore" training

Spotgamers: Do you think you will do better at the Grand Finals??

VicViper: Even after WCG finals, I'm still learning new things in the game. So I will put all the
knowledge and training to the best use and hope that I can perform even better during the
WCG Grand Finals.

Spotgamers: After this year, as RA3 has been announced, do you think you will stick with CNC3 if its a WCG game?

VicViper: The C&C saga has always been my favourite game. I will definitely stick with C&C Red Alert 3 if it appears as a WCG game. I will still be an avid gamer despite having a job already hehe

Spotgamers: Some fast questions here, Favourite Faction?

VicViper: Nod and GDI, although i like to play Random online.

Spotgamers: Favourite Map?

VicViper: Small Town USA

Spotgamers: Favourite Player?

VicViper:In the C&C3 world that would be Relativit and Dackel. Both very amazing and highly skilled players i look up to.

Spotgamers:Hated Faction?

VicViper: Scrin

Spotgamers:Of course I like to throw funny questions, chicks in Germany or local
chicks as your girlfriend?

VicViper: Girlfriend? Eiher one would be awesome... or how about Local + German mix chick? Whoa...imagine the possibilities haha

Spotgamers:Lastly, will you try to maintain this winning streak like our very own
paulyan' for Warcraft 3, even if the game changes?

VicViper:That would definitely be a great achievement in my book, so I will try my best to do so if everything goes well for me

Spotgamers:Thanks Vic, for this great interview. We wish you all the best in Germany

VicViper: You're welcome!

Lyn FIFA League season 16/17 review

With WCG sandwitched between the 2 league seasons, it is only fair that the league reports are given a break to allow Spotgamers to give the WCG the recognition it deserves. Having said that, many of the league players performed admirably in WCG.

In Singapore, Xtr3me3 retained his title, while baumelles and [WlnDs.ya]Hang hung on to 3rd and 4th place respectively. On the Malaysia scene, Vin and loonatic made it to the final, while youqi(!) clinched 4th. All players were active in the Lyn Fifa league, which shows how much you can improve with regular participation.

Back to the league review, han won his 1st league title in season 16, with falcon finishing 2nd and benaldo snatching 3rd place ahead of youqi. benaldo ended that season with a staggering 83 goals to finish as top scorer.

In season 17, youqi bulldozed his way to the top, albiet playing four games more than closest challengers falcon and han. Again, benaldo finished as top scorer, with a barrier breaking 93 goals from 28 matches. Also, it should be noted that falcon won his 1000(one thousand)th lyn Fifa League game recently, and has finished in the top 2 for the last 3 seasons. A true model of consistency.

Rumours: Answering Marshall Ban

We manage to gali-gali and korek-korek into the X-Files of the organizers who were to be said involve with the controversy. Our inside source inform us some interesting data that outsiders never know about the marshall case. It is our priviledge here at Spotgamers to reveal the case from the organizer view. Are you ready? Here it goes:



Marshall Abang Comel File Number 37514:


It was reported that the organizer company(lets call them Company B) have offered this marshall not just to be a marshall for the event but also to be a permanent staff for Company B since last year while he was still studying.

For the marshall job, during the invitation Marshall Abang Comel was working with another company so Company B felt tht it doesnt seems fit to recruit him as the marshall anymore. Although Marshall Abang Comel boss doesnt mind about the recruitment but it doesnt seems professional for the organizing company to accept him.

Although later Marshall Abang Comel quit working with the another company but Company B never received any application from Marshall Abang Comel to be as a marshall for the event.



Marshall Abang Best File Number 06518:


Company B has invited Marshall Abang Best to fill a very important position for the event. But Marshall Abang Best told Company B to wait for his answer after a certain event that he might participate early May.

But as time goes by no answer was heard from Marshall Abang Best. Since time is running out, Company B were looking for someone else and manage to find another marshall to fill in the position.




So there you have both side of the story. It looks like there were some misunderstanding going on. We hope that after both side of story has been heard things will started to get better. Its enough that our community being plague by controversies more than achievement. In the end we are still nowhere near the pro-gaming dream.



*Note: There were no alien files in Company B X-Files. We were also manage to obtain some cute amoi pics which we will keep it to ourself until further notice"
