As previously stated, and is evident as a theme, the monetary motivation for playing WC3 does not exist for KoD and Axslav is no exception. While they would like to have some money (primarily for new players), its just a bonus.

They are all just enjoying their time in WC3L - and just being in the league won't change their approach.

What is it like in Keepers of Destruction right now? Have you had any luck finding a new sponsor?

Well we've been searching but we haven't had any luck so far. We're wary of new sponsors as some in the past have not treated us very well. For us also, Warcraft is more of a hobby as we all have either school or jobs or both so it's more important for us to have fun and compete well than to get money (although we would definately like and appreciate money :)).

Probably the biggest problem we have now is that without money it's very difficult to acquire more talent.

Granted that you and your teammates all have to work to support yourselves or are in school, how do you all manage to keep up your gaming skill?

Well I think a lot of it is that most of our players have been playing this game for quite a while so even if we don't play often, if you count all the years we've been playing the game, we do have a ton of experience.

Also I think as a whole we work very well together and have been a close knit clan for years now.

As one of us improves the ability and knowledge spreads to the rest to some degree (I think more than most teams) and the whole team (and each team member) benefits from each members individual improvements.

Axslav prioritizes social life over wc3

Have you sacrificed some more of your social life to practice for WC3L, or does nothing change? Do you ever have the awkward moment of being unable to hang out because of WC3?

Not at all, I tend to prioritize social life over wc3. In many ways I was lucky S6 occured over the summer as I wouldn't have been putting in even 1/4th of the time I did had it happened during the school year and I wouldn't be in the shape I am in now.

On a very rare occasion I've had to skip out on hanging out some evenings due to a league match occuring at that time, but as almost all our matches are in the mornings and the evening ones tend to be on weekdays they rarely get in the way of other things.
