cArn 'Grilled': 1hr37m career interview

1
Patrik "cArn" Sättermon is the star of the 30th episode of my 'Grilled' interview series. He not only led some of the most successful lineups of all time, but is also the second highest earning player in CS history, in terms of prize money won.

In this 1hr37m video interview cArn answers questions spanning from 2003 to 2012, the length of his professional career.

Why was losing the 2009 WCG final to AGAiN the best thing that ever happened to him? Does he think ceh9/Na`Vi looked at stage big screens on other occasions than just the Beat It in Kiev? When does he consider f0rest's prime? Did he knew fnatic could never be a consistent world #1 after f0rest left to SK? Who was the hardest IGL for him to play against? How close did NEO and REAL come to joining fnatic?
