from left to right: [PSISTM]sWs, [IVD]Intense and [Dust]Schnieder,

winners of A2PLeague tournament, Sept 2014

We have, on our team, a great North American Protoss player named Stephen “sWs” Schnieder. He has recently achieved a victory at the Amateur2Pro League SoCal LAN, and I, Jacob “Zelevin” McDonald, thought it was an opportune time to interview our champion, sWs!

 

 

After two weeks of being on PSISTORM Gaming, you won a tournament which rewarded you with $660. I would like to believe this signifies a bright future for you with PSISTORM Gaming.

How did it feel to represent your new team so well?

It felt great to represent my new team with a first place finish. Hopefully it will be the first of many.

 

How did you celebrate your win?

(if nsfw, make up a fairy tale)

A bunch of us players, plus the tournament host headed over to Buffalo wild wings and had a few drinks and a nice dinner. It was a good way to wrap up the night.

 

Oh, okay, no california gurls? (That is how the Katy Perry song is spelled.)

hahaha there were no california girls sadly

well…

my buddys gf + mom

i dont think that counts and yeah ofc tomorrow is fine

 

How are you liking your new team?

So far so good. As previously mentioned the LAN I went to last weekend was thanks to them – It was a 6 hour drive for me (both ways) and they supplied me with the gas money so I’m optimistic with what we can achieve together in the future.

 

What do you want from PSISTORM Gaming?

All I want from PSISTORM gaming is the economic support to help send me to events, and play comfortably while we grow together as a brand. So far this is what i’m getting, and it’s great.

 

How can your teammates support you?

Currently I only have 2 teammates, but whenever I need someone to spar out some practice games I know they are there for me.

 

How can you support your teammates?

I try to act as a leader for my teammates and help in any means I can, whether it be in the game or out of it.

 

What are your plans for the future with PSISTORM Gaming?

My future plans are to represent them well in WCS, and hopefully at a major offline event such as IEM San Jose which will be in my hometown.

 

The community wants to know who your favorite players are for each race.

Naniwa, Kane, and qxc.

 

Tell me something interesting about yourself that should be in the trivia section on your liquipedia page.

Something interesting about myself is that I have reached Global Elite (the highest rank) in cs:go and would love to be able to play it competitivly as-well.

 

Any shout outs?

Shout-out to my team, and of course to our sponsors. Also thanks to you for doing this interview 🙂
