What are your expectations on this season's PGL?


- First time I'm going to China, but i know - if they make an event - they make it awsome. So I'm looking forward to see the event with best ever organization as I 've seen before.

For now, the only players revealed in StarCraft are you, White-Ra and NonY. What are your thoughts of the opposition? Clearly, you know White-Ra very well, and he did it great last season of PGL.


- I expect to see the best players of China, IdrA and like 3 Korean B team players. Me and White-Ra have passed so many things together that I can't call him my "opponent". Let's say: I will be sad to meet him in PGL, because we will have to eliminate each other. I mean I hope that we won't meet in games there, except in practice games of course.

Is the high number of games something that concerns you? Or do you feel it's good to play so many?


- It is very good, I expect this tournament to boost my skill highly. More games - better for me.

Have you deliberately lost in recent games in ESL Major Series, WGTCL and BWCL to not show your best games?


- I won't answer this question, because answering yes will show my disrespect to players which won over me. Let's say that I didn't show my best games.

Should you win this tournament, would you rate that first place higher than your third place in WCG?


- I will answer these questions only if I manage to win the event.

Okay, then, let's hope you do. Best of luck in China, Strelok!


- Thank you, sir! Me and White-Ra plan to make live coverage of the event on the Russian portal sc.igamecentral.ru. Of course, it will be in Russian though.
