pepeks interview by michaq2014-10-26 11:30 | ceba
Hi there everyone. I have something intresting, something that is very rare these days. An interview. We would like to thank michaq for it. Hope you will enjoy reading it.
/Ceba
----------------------------------


A few people have asked me who is PEPEK? I decided to interview him.

[MICHAQ] Please introduce yourself.
[pepek] My name is Stephen Kasperski. I am 26 years old. I was born, live and work
in a small village in the southern Poland - Starachowice. Professionally I am a truck driver and construction machinery operator. We have a small construction company together with my brother and father.
My nickname came from elementary school: Szczepek – pepek :).

[MICHAQ] How did you start playing q2?
[pepek] The first contact I had with quake was around 2002-2004 (I don’t remember exactly)
I started from the single player. Then accidentally I went on a server and I was very surprised, because I had no idea, there was something like a multiplayer mode. Then I began playing it the day and night. The game had fascinated me. I wrote my own cfg, analysed tactics. I became a geek :)
At the turn of 2005/2006, vesq and vibez welcomed me to the clan v3 where I am in today. It is in v3, where together with the guys went way literally from zero to a hero. Together we, almost every day, grew up on real badass :) Our biggest successes are:
plq2 # 12 gold 2010/2011
plq2 # 14 Gold 2013-2014
and the largest one:
Euroq2l # 14 Gold

[MICHAQ] And what about dueling?
[pepek] I have played duel at the same time as TP. For hours, I’d been watch demos of masters like Damiah, Purri, Provi, Scooby. They were a huge inspiration to me.
To tell the truth I prefer to watch a good demo than football: P For all these years I slowly started to understand the game. I was very proud of myself officially winning dm1 with Provi :) Then, probably in 2009, I finished school and started a real life. I went to fulfil military duty and then started to work. I had so much time for my hobbies.
Nevertheless, from time to time I am still trying to tickle and stay in shape. Now, when the job situation calmed down a bit, I decided to take part in this EDL. Frankly, I didn’t expect such a good beginning.

[MICHAQ] Do you have a recipe for being a good dueller?
[pepek] It is difficult to tell, in my case, about two years ago I had some kind a “change”, that meant that I became more "cold-blooded", very carefully thought about the next move. In this game, you can still grow, for example - recently during a game against Myrmidon on dm1, I was accused of a step-hacks, because I was able to quietly walk from lift to the room through water ;). Myrmidon did not know this trick.

[MICHAQ] How far you think you will go in this season?
[pepek] 4-5-6

[MICHAQ] Top 3?
[pepek] David, purri, Damiah. Finally, I would like to greet and thank the people who spent their time to organize leagues. In my opinion without EDL, our scene would not have existed. Also greet the players, the old one and noobies.
I wish all GL HF!

[MICHAQ] Hi David, please say something about pepek, as you are his close friend.
[DAVID] I want to write briefly, but it's hard to describe such a brilliant player in one sentence. Pepek is a man who taught me how to play team play and duels on a global level. At some stage in his quake, around 2010/11, after each duel with him I have learned something new. He taught me how to playing until the last second of the match. We often trained telling ourselves that we will play in the EDL final. He is a genius when it comes to team play, movement, cold blood and unconventional aim - that characterizes him.
Privately he is a mega positive person, quiet as in q2. No one has ever had problems with him, he is a well-respected and well liked. He is the world champion in quake2 of the season where v3 has won everything there was to win, and his brother is a master, or vice world champion in kickboxing. I sincerely greet the man who learned me the most.

huh, just came by here accidentally and I'm bit surprised by the league's vitality emo

good to see ppl still playing, including legends

as to this RL 2 pent trick, I don't really remember its genesis, but I have never seen it before on a demo (Menendes has a point)

greetings to pepek, one of my favourite players, always liked his style emo

ps. Delita still here, still talking shit...some things never change

No, he got from the top of the lift to the doorway leading in to the MH via the RG area. Naturally, I was in the MH room because I had control. There is only one way that's possible, and that's if you stay on the lift before it does down. From what I remember, he was on top of the lift spamming rockets down in to the MH room for way too much time to actually do that. Not only that, but the armor shards would have been up, and you can't drop anyway without making a sound. Sometimes, the game bugs and you don't hear a sound, but that's not a trick, that's a bug that only happens on the off chance.

So it comes down to 3 things: cheats, luck, or some insane trick that no one in the history of Quake 2 has ever heard of.

All in all, he's talking shit, and like I originally said, he only posted that to annoy me.

Not following, pepek walked from lift to MH room through water? You mean from top of the lift, via up RL and water area to MH-room?

I'm not talking about rocket jumps. Pepek managed to get from the top of the lift to the MH door adjacent to the Railgun water without making any detectable sound. Only way it's possible is if the lift is already up, which it wasn't. There are some 'drops' you can do without making any sound, but they are not genuine tricks, they work randomly. I.e. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, meaning it boils down to LUCK.

Pepek clearly wrote that in his article to piss me off. David probably told him to write it. They can't beat me in the arena, so they have to bad mouth me instead. The fact that I have asked him to prove that trick to me on a number of occasions, in which he refused, only proving that's he's full of crap.

Don't get me wrong. He can play quite well, but his game is flawed, as an inactive Damiah demonstrated.

Finally something fresh on that site! Great article! In my opinion pepek is the most exciting player to watch from Poland after Scooby! I'am a huge fan of his q2 style - maybe the best overall q2 player after Scooby in Poland (dueling and tdm). Great aim, good movement and very smart ppl. If i have to rank him in my "most favorite q2 ppl from Poland, Ill put him on 2nd place, right after Scooby 3rd for Fiziek" emo emo Keep the tempo up Pepek! emo

P.S:
Michaq----> FAAAAK U!
Delita----> Kill ur self pls! emo emo emo

I remember you. And there is no 'trick', it's impossible to do. Period.

Doesn't matter anyway. I still own you, as it was clearly showing until you started cheating, like David blatantly does. Wall hacking cunt.
