The interview is rather expansive and covers a variety of topics, starting from the beggining of Dmitriy 'Happy' Kostin's gaming career, "In my childhood I just played computer games time to time, just for fun. Then when I've got internet I tried Counter Strike," he said.

"When wc3 was out I wasn't really interested in it. I just bought it like one year after its release to play the campaign and forget about it for some time... I played the campaign again and then found out that this game was being played on a competitive level as well. I decided then to download replays which I quickly enjoyed to do. Then I tried my first game online..."

The interview also goes on to talk about Happy's brief stay in China "I would rate my stay there lower than stay in Europe, because it was my first time and I had some difficulties there. Like Chinese food, I honestly didn't like it; was a really hard time for me to be honest."

His plans for the future were also the subject of questioning "If wc3 will not be so popular by then and tourneys will slowly disappear I will change for sc2. Honestly I think wc3 will still be alive and be played for a long time from sc2 out. And if wc3 won't be popular I will change and play sc2 professionally."

The interview was conducted shortly before Happy signed with MeetYourMakers, revealing not only how quickly the deal with MYM went through, but his frame of mind after having spent close to eight months without a team "Honestly I've lost hope finding my team long time ago, that's why I don't expect to find it at all."
