I mainly use the hardware we get off our sponsors as this will help promote their hardware/equipment; also it's the best ;)
How do you think the equipment you use helps you play better?
Well the equipment I use currently provides me with enough frames per second to enjoy playing high graphically games.
How'd you join Team Dignitas?
I joined the clan by meeting up with a lot of the players at different LANs, talking and playing with them as much as possible.
What are your favourite games?
World in Conflict and Quakewars (beta). Both games are great to watch even from a spectators point of view and they both have great gameplay.
What's your biggest success in pro gaming?
Before I joined Team Dignitas I had won a Halo tournament on PC which I won a lot of Alienware goodies including an Alienware laptop. With Dignitas I have won 2 CPL stops for World in Conflict, 3 Eurocups with the Battlefield 2 team; these have been by far the most enjoyable to win.
How long had you been playing before you thought about becoming a pro?
I had been playing for ages, I started playing competitively from the first time I got the internet - playing in all kinds of leagues, tournaments and LANs.
Who's your toughest opponent?
Depends on the game. In Battlefield 2 it was always Exit11, Copenhagen E-sports and Code7 and in World in Conflict it is ToT.
What's your favourite gadget?
My screwdriver?
