RGN: Except Orange e-Sports, do you have any other teams?

Mushi: Previous teams: Anc/Ucpro/Cybertime/Nirvana/Ccm/MUFC

RGN: What is your first hero in DotA?

Mushi: Leshrac, and Tormented Soul. My first game was really hilarious. I did not aware that I needed to pay to activate the buyback icon that helped me to revive immediately. So, in every time I died, I kept on clicking that item. Then my friend looked at my monitor, and asked why I did not have any other items. Then I said I had had no ideas. Afterwards, when I died again, he looked into my PC one more time, and clearly understood what happened.

RGN: Who taught you how to play the game?

Mushi: No one taught me. I just love playing, and watching how the game goes on.

RGN: Amongst all the online and LAN games, why did you choose DotA?

Mushi: Because I like team game. We laugh together, shout together in the game, and also, this game is very challenging. I learn a lot from this game.

RGN: What other online / LAN games are you playing?

Mushi: League of Legend and Perfect World.

RGN: What is your role in the team?

Mushi: I can play in any role. It depends on which matches I play. I also commanding them what to do. When I don’t give command, they will listen to Winter and Xtinct's comand.

RGN: What / Who inspires you the most?

Mushi: Kenchi. Because he gave me the chance to show to all that I could be a good player in DotA.

RGN: Except DotA, what are your hobbies?

Mushi: Sometimes I play Basketball, Snooker / Pool, watch movie, and hangout with my friends.

RGN: What's your favorite movie?

Mushi: Ghost Protocol

RGN: What can you say about the PH gamers gaming style?

Mushi: Still not a professional gaming style. It’s not about the skill, but other things. Even PH teams can win against China. But I still think that only China has professional teams.

RGN: Why did you say that PH teams are not that professional?

Mushi: When it comes to skills, yes, they are professional, but when it comes to attitude and respect, they are lacking of professionalism. But I hope someday they will be like China.

RGN: One week here in the PH, what lesson did you learn?

Mushi: We learn the importance of teamwork: Lose together, draft together, win together, so that we can be a better team any time.

RGN: Do you have any plans on coming back here in the future?

Mushi: Yes, definitely. I hope to be going back in the Philippines someday. I love the fans, all of them are friendly. Also the whole Mineski’ staff, they are very accommodating and hospitable.

RGN: Any shoutout?

Mushi: Always thanks to our sponsor, and all the fans, we cannot do all of this without you by our side. Thanks for reading this article. I promise that I will bring more exciting games to everyone.
