Today we caught one of the best player in Russian organisation- Gravitas Gaming- Frozen. Introduce yourself to our readers.

My name is Vlad, I am 17 years old and study in 11 form of school.

How did your Warcraft III career started?

It started when I had got acquainted with Nightwolf. We didn't knew each other and I didn't know why he started to help me, maybe he saw some potential in me.

What are your feelings about the present situation with your skill. Do you think it was a good step to start playing?

I think I am playing not bad, but not very good aswell. And yes, I do not regret that I've started to play Wc3. I've got lots of friends because of Wc3.

What is your attitude to Warcraft? Its just a hobby, some kind of entertainment? Maybe its a work?

For me its more than just hobby or some kind of entertainment as well. But it's not work for sure. So I guess it's kind of average

Nobody knows how long Warcraft will live, because of the upcoming SC2. Will you stay with WC3 once SC2 is released?

Never liked SC as much as Wc3. I hope Wc3 will still be a popular game even with SC2 as the competitor.

Of all the events you participated, which one was your favorite and why?

Oh, for sure its Gamex, that was the best lan in my life yet. There were players like Moon, Focus, Remind, Shy etc. It was very nice to watch them all.

Do you have some kind of an idol in Warcraft 3?

Well, I dont think he's my idol, but my favourite player is Moon for sure.

Is it hard to connect real life and Warcraft career? Which of this two takes up much more time?

Yes, its very very hard for me. At the moment real life takes more time, but when I was in Moscow with Gravitas i played wc3 too much.

Lets talk a bit about your present and past teams. Which of your clans by far is the most important for you?

The most important team for me is Gravitas, but also thx to Prae( PGS ) for the chance they have given me in the past.

What can you say about changes at Warcraft scene? For example: Tod to mouz or 4K problems? Do you think that situation shows that our scene is going down?

Over the last couple months, many changes have occured in the entire history of WC3. I think it is very intresting to watch on all this, and no, the wc3 scene is not going down for sure.

What do you think about the performance of MYM and SK in last WC3L season?

I think SK is the best team in the world at the moment, they did great in the last wc3l season, and is doing great in ngl-one. But, MYM also has a great team with great players, especially moon :). In the upcoming ngl-one finals, the final will be sk against mym for sure.

We heard about training rooms in Gravitas. Could tell us more about it? How often do you train there?

Training rooms? We rented a flat for a month before the new year, lived and practiced together in pc cafe Clicknet and now we wanna to rent a new flat for 6 months.

Lets back to WC3L qualifications. What went wrong? Why we wont be able to see Gravitas in upcoming season?

All went wrong. Versus hoorai we knew that elfitajja will play @ ts and wanted to seed rob on elfitajja, but titan was sure he will win. Quai won first game, but lost 2nd and in 3rd couldn't concentrate, and we havent been strong 2x2.

There was some bad luck against mTw. Titan has big problems with undeads and he had to face Protois in that clanwar.

(Note: The following questions are answered by Gravitas' Warcraft manager as well)

Gravitas is an young team. What achievments do you have and what are your future plans?

Frozen: Well, yes. Gravitas is a new team, but full of aspiration to become the best team in the world and we will be!

Sunny: Well, Gravitas is a really young team and we try to extend professionalisim on our goals to reach NGL1 and next season WC3L after we missed this one. Our team is built based on friendship and highclass players and if we make any changes its first up about the spirit if all works out etc.

Will you focus at other leagues too? How about individual tournaments, which one will be most important for managment and players?

Sunny: Well we are going to focus also on WPL, but atm our main league is to qualify to NGL and of course we are going to look up our players, attend in the highest solo tournaments for example WCG in germany etc to promote our partners and the organization in the highest possible method.

Frozen: Individual tournaments are very important for every player, I will try to visit all tournaments that are possible to visit for me.

Are there any plans to add any new players?

Sunny: At the moment we haven't thought about it yet.

Thanks for an interview. It's a time for you.

Frozen: Thanks to you too, I want to tell thanks to my team, Gravitas Gaming, all players of this team, my mother and our sponsors (betmost poker, steelseries and severstal)
