Our Russian friends from goodgame.ru conducted a telephone interview with the hero of the last comeback news - Andrey "wicked.Deadman" Sobolev

Hello Andrey! In the beginning of Autumn you suddenly decided to quit cybersport. Now we see that you want to get back to professional gaming. What happened?
I had other problems. Let's say there were problems with my family. Now everything is more or less settled.

How is your studying going?
Everything is fine, I'm in my first year at the moment. I didn't go to study last year and thought that it is an easy task. Now I realize that it is not. I'm attending the textile University in Moscow and my major is engineering.

Do you like it?
Yes, I do like it, I already passed two exams, now only one is left. I will also have to pass six more exams soon.

Which exams were the ones you have already passed?
English language and Chemistry. I think that I will handle the remaining ones as well.

KODE5 finals are scheduled to be just before your exams, in May, will it be a problem? Will you have time for both studying and preparing?
I called the main orgs of KODE5 and they told me that I have an automatic qualification for the final event. I think I will be able to handle everything fine and be ready for KODE5.

How will you prepare for KODE5?
Playing ladder and attending clan wars, as usual. I've already played two clan wars, with moderate success.

What about CESO 2008?
I'm not going to Chinese Esport Open 2008. Other four player and a Wicked manager will attend this event. I'm sure that I won't go.

Someone said you started playing World Of WarCraft, is that true?
I haven't played World of WarCraft for three months. But I have played Warcraft3 for some time, I even made a level 47 account in a short period of time on some random server. It wasn't very hard to do, I can still play my game well.

Do you want to join Gravitas, the Russian-based WarCraft3 Squad?
I'm feeling pretty comfortable in my current team Wicked, so I don't think I'll team up with Gravitas Gaming.

If I will be lucky enough, you'll see me in the upcoming games for wicked.
