3. The interview

Hello Link, and thanks for doing this mini-interview. Let’s start off with the basics, how did you get the idea to start your own stream?

I had the idea for quite a while since I have been watching a lot of SC2 and I found out how much these guys make on it. At first it was really weird streaming and like featuring yourself, but then it became really fun.





What would you say makes your stream different from the rest?

I have been streaming since the first night when Valve allowed it, and therefore a lot of people were kind of "forced" to watch me and I became a really known streamer since everybody was watching me because there was no one else. Even if you have a great stream you want have many viewers unless people tune in and really get to know you and like you. My best sessions and most enjoyable sessions are the ones were I interact with the viewers a lot and just talk almost non-stop, and that really makes a difference since you are becoming more than just a streamer, you are becoming a personality to your audience, and as soon as people feel like they know you and they like it they cannot stop watching :)



What kind of music do you play for your viewers?

I try to mix it up, so i play everything, mostly high-excitement music with vocals, but also a lot of other stuff. I am currently creating a playlist that I put up on my YouTube channel! :)



You seem to often team up with others. Who can we expect to see playing alongside you?

On my stream I basically just play with the ones that ask and enjoy to play with. I mostly play with other highskilled players since it makes the games more enjoyable but I also do inhouses and stack with my fans.



Let’s say I`m an average Dota 2 player. What can I learn from watching you?

You can see how a proplayer like me plays and try to mimic and habbitize some of the good things that I do. Also at my YouTube channel i am planning to put up videos for the solely purpose of teaching people a little bit at the time of the world of DOTA2.
