natu 1on1 1/2: "[4K] was quite the ride"

By Duncan 'Thorin' Shields

Imagenatu talks about his early days with All*, his breakthrough with D-Sky, his 4Kings period and the 69N-28E team which ruled the world, very briefly.

Next up for the SK Gaming 1on1 feature is FI Joona 'natu' Leppänen. During his decade long career natu was able to win a WCG bronze medal with FI All*, place 4th at CPL Summer 2004 with FI D-Sky, take a multi-cultural FINOUK 4Kings lineup to 4th at WSVG ISC 2006 and briefly help FI 69N-28E top the CS world in early 2007.

How did natu get into competitive Counter-Strike? What was the experience of the first WCG event like? Did he ever consider quitting CS during the two year period where there was no elite Finnish team? What did D-Skyline mean to natu's career and Finnish CS in general? Could a team with so many nationalities in it like 4kings ever really work? For a few months in 2007 Finland had the best CS team in the world, how does natu characterise that period?

(note: due to a camera error the audio cuts out during my questions every now and then, but natu's audio is fine)
