SaSe was eliminated by Sky and InFi in the ProGamerLeague tournament. GosuGamers caught up with the Swedish Sentinel about the tournament, China, 4Kings and... McDonald's?




SaSe, eliminated from PGL a couple of days ago, is still in the Mekkah of WarCraft 3 considering he lives there and that he follows the tournament.
- China is nice, there is always things going on here, either online or offline, he says and smiles. And, when it comes to invite tournaments, SaSe is almost always invited - even though he does not have a "heavy title", such as ESWC, WCG or something similar.

You have been invited to many top notch tournament, especially in China, without having any real "heavy title". There are voices in the community that think SaSe is an overrated player. What do you yourself think? Are you worthy all the events you are invited to?
- I don't like talking about myself. Sometimes I do good, sometimes I don't do good. In the eyes of the ones I'm worthy it I guess, else I wouldn't be invited. But it's mostly because the real top didn't accept the invitation in most cases I think.

“If a clan offered me a salary which pays better than a McDonald's work I would probably take it
- Kim "SaSe" HammarAt the moment, there are seven players left in the PGL tournament, as InFi was eliminated yesterday. When asked, SaSe thinks that ToD, Sky and Moon are the ones with the best chance of coming out on top. Two of those he mentioned are Human - the very same race he was eliminated by.
- I think I play pretty much the same versus all races now. But after playing the first game versus Sku I got read like I've never been before, he says. SaSe also says that he lost some motivation and tried to give a show instead - something he thinks he succeeded with

SaSe replacing Creolophus in 4Kings?


Considering it's silly season, and that there have been a lot of rumours about 4Kings lately, we asked SaSe whether 4Kings would be an interesting team for him to join. Rumors have actually placed him in the team, saying he is the perfect substitute for Creolophus.

“I think I could learn a lot, especially from ToD, but I also think I would have a lot of pressure
- About 4Kings - I stayed a long time in mouz and I like mouz a lot, but things can always change. If a clan offered me a salary which pays better than a McDonald's work I would probably take it considering I spend much more time than a normal work (and working 7 days a week). It's hard to say if 4Kings is a good team for me, I think I could learn a lot, especially from ToD, but I also think I would have a lot of pressure and so on.

Will stay in china as long as it's fun


Lastly, we asked SaSe for how long he was intending to stay in China. He said that the practice possibilities are much better in China, and that he thinks he will stay a very long time.
- As long as it's fun for me and I think I can improve. In Europe most players had enough after 3 or so games - that's useless practice in my opinion. In China I can play a lot of games without a break.

Next up for SaSe is the WarCraft 3 World war Summer Grand Prix, where he was supposed to go up against Soju in the first round - but SaSe tells us he won't play in it. Whether it will be an autowin or not is not known yet.
