I've got a lot of respect for Pimp, he's criminally undervalued by the community in my books, grateful for him being so invested in the scene, you can tell he takes his job and his brand very seriously, always looking to improve in both regards. Hearing him talk about how he struggled with toxicity and getting wrapped up in the toxicity surrounding him in his playing career, really resonated with me as it's something I struggle with in my personal life too, you can tell from the way he spoke about it it's something he's deeply reflected on and I can respect that as it's something I try to do as well.

Pimp is one of the sharpest analysts in the scene. He looks sharp as ever. His answers are quick and cut straight to the topic at hand. Probably the sharpest guest Thorin ever had on Reflections.

he is shit at his job, he is just like a parrot, repeating same shit for all other players/stats/team, for exp "if he continuing to play like this he can be best player in world" he says that non stop for all other players...that have no chance to be best in game..and all other stuff

This has been my favourite ever reflections. Pimp is just so honest, maybe too honest, but it makes fantastic watching
@mehow2g7 ай бұрын
Holy shit, the talks about his attitude and his team fighting and trolling sounds very familiar, spot on he still wants to compete in CS the way he talks about all these stories is quite evident that he's still holding on. Top stuff Thorin!

from watching ppl around me ive come to notice that i and ppl maybe dont experience life the same way, cuz from my pov, a life that is absolutly perfect in a literal sense,really nothing bothers one, can do what i want, the mood is always as good as it can literally be, but if then i have to work more than 2 full days a month like over the span of an year, thats the point where im too fed up ( depressed) and kms if it wouldnt mean leaving ppl behind, as which to for the current working half time is acceptable, even tho its been a couple months and im getting kinda very depressed but can another persons life be that far aways from that, like no way ppl are like figthing to stay alive, what kinda life is that?

the way the thorin does these interviews asks one big detailed question for each section that sets up the context and lets the interviewee give a big extended, detailed answer and then if needed asks shorter more specific questions. this results in long , really in depth interviews. Thorin gives lots of direction while also giving the interviewee the space to give lots of death. Also thorin sometimes has far better memory of events then the interviewee. so this format also lets thorin remind them who they played with and what tournament and how they played. its a bad format for a short interview but its excellent for 1hr+ ones.
