SK Drops a Duck + Interview!

The famous Swedish Orc player Sweden Orc Björn 'ElakeDuck' Ödman has been dropped from the Internationa- SK.wc3 Squad. Sweden ElakeDuck, who is currently semi-active and focusing on poker rather successfully, has been and still is one of the best Orcs out there in Europe Europe.

Sweden ElakeDuck still doesn't know if he will keep on playing Warcraft III, but he will finish the ENC Finals as he is still a representative of Sweden Team Sweden.

He has always been in a scattered spotlight, loved by some, hated by others on the Warcraft scene. His hatred against Nightelves Nightelves players was not a secret and he sometimes lost his temper towards those. Rumours say that he went inactive because of the imbalance of the match-up between Orc Orcs and Nightelves Elves. Nevertheless, he is a great player and deserved his respect amongst the top players.

However, India MYM|Noname took crumbles of bread and went to the local lake. He there found the Duck, whom he fed and then interviewed! I shall not make you wait longer because this is what ElakeDuck had to say about his, for now, farewell to Professional Warcraft 3

Hey Bjorn, can you tell us why you're not SK anymore?
Hi Elroy, they wanted to focus on a smaller squad and didnt need/want me anymore so..

Is it because you went partially inactive and focused more on poker?
Well its because I'm not good enough and i'm not good enough because I don't spend enough time on wc3 anymore, so yeah.

Are you going to stay in WC3 or go to poker?
I haven't decided for sure yet. ENC finals is coming and i'm going to practice a lot, play that and see how I feel about it afterwards.

Do you have any offers on the platter?
Ýes, but just lose talk so far.

Any names that you intend on joining?
Maybe:)

Can you take those names ;)?
Noo!

Moving on, are you going to aim for a WC3L team?
Yes, if I continue playing wc3 I want to play in a wc3l team.

Has your motivation gone up in the past months?
Before events like Dreamhack and ENC finals it does atleast.

Any famous flames before we close?
No, but thx for asking. 


We wish Sweden ElakeDuck all the best in future and hope to see him and his orcish style back in pro gaming soon.

my opinion is that he is not comming back in wc3. mb the clan he could join is fnatic but i wonder what would the team benefit from another inactive/semi-active player since they need really strong and dedicated ppl to reach the wc3l playoff this season

HE complained about imbalance only when he lost, but when he won he said that balance was not an issue

I think his game at the WEG' was quite awesome. Considering no one ever thought he'd be able to matchup to the koreans. I guess someone still think so...
