passion that our players and
fans have around the game and
it provides a lot of motivation
as I come to work every day.
Being the President of a company
must be pretty time consuming what do you do in your leisure time?
I play SMITE, of course! And
spend as much time as I can with
my kids. They grow up fast.
Do you get enthusiastic when
watching eSports? Are you a
sit-back and cheer on the inside
type, or jump from your seat and
scream at the screen type?
My family thinks I am nuts,
because I will sit on the couch
on the weekend and watch
the games and I am always
shouting at the screen.
Who is your favourite god to
play, which position do you play
them in, and why to both?
I like playing Support
characters a lot, although I’ll
still play a decent amount of
Agni -- just because he was one
of my first obsessions in the
game and what’s not fun about
dropping meteors on people?
If I want to just chill out and
relax after a long day at work,
you’ll find me playing freeze-bot,
full-tank Ymir in Arena. My goal is
always to get at least 30 assists,
and I hit my goal a lot of the time.
How do you plan on relaxing once
this event is all done and dusted?
I think the NCAA College
Football Championship Game
is on the day after our World
Championship is over (Roll Tide!).
So I’ll watch that and then get
back to the grind. We have a
lot of exciting stuff to get done
for our Season 2 release! ■
