In the fourth episode of my 'Grilled' interview series I spoke in-depth with SK's Johan "face" Klasson about his career and some of the famous players he's teamed with, events he's placed highly at and opponents he's faced. Things also come to a close with him delivering a 10 minute masterclass on 1vX theory, his famous specialty.
