SK Gaming's Michal "Carmac" Blicharz has interviewed the French Warcraft 3 legend, Yoan "ToD" Merlo as part of the 1on1 series.This week's 1on1 also takes on a more personal approach towards the interviewee, trying to avoid topics covering favourite maps, best heroes, game imbalances and esports in general. The idea is to let you know the Mousesports superstar better.
Watch it below to find out about his moodiness, his laziness or whether or not he had a crush on a teacher in high school:
We asked a few friends of ToD's to make their comments about what he said in the interview:
Moodiness
"I wouldn't class Tod as a moody guy, he's always straight up and blunt about everything =] Probably why people assume he is moody, I guess - his direct point of view on things. He's always just in a French mood." - attax|DeMusliM
"Moody? To say the LEAST!" - PGS|FuRy
Getting angry
"He gets angry when he loses to a person who he thinks is a worse player than him (every other player in the world)." - PGS|FuRy
"ToD only gets angry when he loses, and when he believes he got cheated in some way. But I guess everyone deals with their loses in different ways. As for when he flames or such - it's just ToD at his best!" - attax|DeMusliM
Laziness and hyperactivity
"I guess he hates doing nothing. He always hates to wait for people." - PGS|FuRy
"In terms of doing his job for mouz he is very reliable, always striving to be the best." - mouz|django
"Never really knew about his laziness, just thought he liked to boss people around =]" - attax|DeMusliM
Tourism
"I think he was the most explorative person of all of 4K. I guess he's always looking for better clubs though." - PGS|FuRy
Teaching Warcraft 3
"He keeps his strategies and ways of thinking to himself unless he feels one of his friends is in need. He is always thinking about strategies, I know that." - PGS|FuRy
"He was the guy who made me install Warcraft 3 and watch games via waaghtv and GG client after 3 years of mouz having a professional Warcraft 3 team. Prior to that I had no clue about WC3 theory and I am still a noob." - mouz|django

Hopefully Tod won't find interviews so tedious if he can talk about a greater variety of things like he does in this interview.
However, there are still pointless comments regarding tod's nose and those people proove that esport is still full of crappy 10- 17 years old geeks (not all are stupid, but most of them are just to young to understand their point of flaming are totally retarded). We want to see esport growing, esport cant grow while the majority of concerned ppl are such stupid Little boys.
Do you see any comments, on a football website for example, where ppl flamed players or so on such idiotic and useless things ?
=> definitely not.
Ban those retarded children plz who make esport that "little".
If it's done tastefully then it should be allowed!
ToD fighting!
