Got questions for cArn?

Time: 2012-03-08 21:45
Game: Counter-Strike 1.6

Do you have questions for the retired Patrik "cArn" Sättermon? If so, then be sure to post them to this news, as we will be conducting a retirement interview with the 26-year-old Swede Friday during the second to last day of the IEM6 World Championship.

Sunday last week, Patrik "cArn" Sättermon announced that he would retire after the IEM6 World Championship. With a loss against Natus Vincere in the quarter-finals, Sättermon has officially retired from professional gaming.


cArn's career ended in Hannover

Sättermon has agreed to feature in a retirement interview with HLTV.org, which will be recorded Friday. This is your chance to get your questions answered by the former fnatic in-game leader. If you have questions, post them in a comment below, we will be going through the comments before the interview and pick some that will be included.

The interview will be posted sometime next week. Knowing how in-depth answers Sättermon usually gives, you can expect a lengthy interview to appear.

2012-03-08 22:51:05
He loved playing this game when he was with f0rest GTR and dsn I think. After they broke up, he just lost his motivation that was obvious. I mean he got used to play with them and couldnt enjoy the game after they left. So Im not surprised to see that he's retiring now. GL in real life Patrik, u were a good IGL!
2012-03-08 22:51:24
I think the golden 5 and who carn actually miss is : dsn, ins, f0rest, Archi.

2012-03-08 23:26:49
No. Dont call them Golden 5 dude, All knows who they actually are :)
2012-03-08 23:42:33
Can't understand your statement but w/e ;D
For me, that was the best team :)
2012-03-09 00:07:29
I think he said that because the name "Golden 5" is already used to call ESC. And he's polish so I guess I'm correct.
2012-03-09 00:18:32
How has your life change from before cs, to while playing cs. Now that you are retired, what will be your future plans?
2012-03-08 22:51:28
As you look back into your carrier, what where your times you mostly enjoyed, your favourite tournament and did you had times where you just had enough of cs and thought about a break?
2012-03-08 22:51:31
I wish I had a carrier =/
2012-03-09 01:43:01
1. Which team can be called the best ever?
2. What is the secret (pita's one) about being pro gamer?
2012-03-08 22:51:31
+1337
2012-03-08 23:43:18
pita's "secret" is about the position of the arms and wrists if i'm not mistaken... I'm not sure if it's truly that but I red that from him.
2012-03-09 00:20:04
Dont think so, cuz everyone is having own position of arms that is comfortable. Imo its about mentally attitude.
2012-03-09 13:50:48
yeah i've got a question : wtf happened at iem6?

also: who will replace you?
2012-03-08 22:51:32
gl in real life carn :-)
2012-03-08 22:51:40

2012-03-08 22:51:41
How does it feel to talk shit about navi and get raped by them in your last cs match?
2012-03-08 22:52:01
What "shit" are you refering to?
2012-03-09 01:44:04
Who's going to be the new 5th and who's going to be the IGL?
2012-03-08 22:52:19
Can you tell me please? I hate watching videos.
2012-03-09 15:49:26
It says: cArn: it's mostly like xizt will take over the IGL-role
2012-03-09 16:15:51
I had already heard of that... Any indication of who the fifth would be?
Cheers.
2012-03-09 16:24:33
what do you prefer on a player ? Smart or aim ? And How do you think that a player can be more smarter to play? there some tricks ? Thanks for advice !
2012-03-08 22:52:47

Are you planing to stay "away" from any e-sports stuff or you'll try to be here and there occasionally? For example being a caster or maybe a manager?
2012-03-08 22:53:43
Do you think Xizt will change approach in fnatic's way of playing CS or is the Legacy still keeping on ?

2012-03-08 22:54:22
Who is/was the best player with he played?
2012-03-08 22:54:38
How many hours of cs did he play per day this past couple of years compared to when he was starting out for like 12 years ago.
2012-03-08 22:54:40
Do you have any unfulfilled wishes as a pro gamer? Especially, do you regret not beating SK Gaming even once, ever since the lineup change in 2011? Being completely unbiased, how do you think the current fnatic team stacks up against them?

2012-03-08 22:58:13
You are 100% sure about your decision? I mean that many pro players retired like Spawn and than they try to back to the scene (with bad result). I want to know if it would be possibility to see you again in the future, doesn't matter on which version of cs, just see your face one more time with professional organization maybe again in fnatic? I just want to know if you will not regret your decision, that in last year of your favourite game you didn't try to prove your enemies that they are wrong and you can still lead fnatic to win.

2012-03-08 23:12:33
1 - Pls, reveal pita's secret :D
2 - Best match of your life
3 - When you started playing cs


2012-03-08 23:12:33
pita's secret about what?
2012-03-09 19:53:29
1. Why do you retire ? =(
2012-03-08 23:12:57
What is exact reason that u are leaving profesional gaming and will you still play some m1x games with community like before? =DD
2012-03-08 23:13:00
Did you get good grades in school?

What map did you play when you tried CS for the first time?

Favorite Swedish city besides Karlstad?

Are you proud of yourself? And did you expect too be this good after your first tournament?
2012-03-08 23:13:18
Did have you only played cs for the money or because you loved it as the complete game it is?

Did you ever finished high school/went to college ?

Do you think you have done everything you could do for the development of cs?

What will you do know with your professional life, will you rest for a while and then try to find a job?

I wish you the best luck in the world in your personal and professional life!

Thank you for everything

Best regards,

Francisco Silva

Question: Are you happy to have ended your career in 1.6 or would you have liked to have given CS:GO a chance considering what you've claimed in the past about the game possibly having potential in future E-sports?


or Question 2: Will you still do Raidcall gathers like you did before? It was really fun to watch play with the pros, regardless of not being a part of the professional scene surely you'll still play CS for the fun of it.

Do you think that fnatic 1.6 squad is going to split in next 6 months due to upcomming unsuccess and fnatic will stop support for 1.6? You know what I mean Xizt is going to be main person in new squad. Can he handle the pressure of expectations to become as good IGL as you?

Will you continue into gaming -beeing in hltv.org, casting some games, etc?

How can me and my team play better? :p <--i know its stupid but one chance in life to ask to carn xD
2012-03-08 23:22:48
No questions for Patrik. Just wanna say that you are definitely one of the best leaders/players & great guy on Counter-Strike history, even not the best.
Just good luck on your life, you deserve all the best. It was honour to play near you, to talk with you, and to watch you. Hall of fame will wait for players with class like you, you will be always remembered and will live with young players. Best luck, hope you'll get all your life goals.

Respect.

Y U NO SUPPORT CSPROMOD?
2012-03-08 23:31:51
I want to know what he thinks about the moneysystem (is moneyfucking to strong, should you be able to lose a game only because you lose the wrong rounds?) and what he would think about this change:

1st round loss
$1900
2nd round loss
$2400

This would lead to only one ecoround when you're getting moneyfucked (full famasbuy as CT or a poor m4buy, good buy as T).

I've suggested this to the guys at CSPromod, and I want to get some proplayer opinions.

I know for a fact that HeatoN, Walle and XeqtR have all complained about the moneysystem, but it would be nice to hear cArn's thoughts as he is the most experienced ingame leader and one of CS strongest minds ever.

Please include this question, it could lead to an even better Counter-Strike if CSP goes big! :D

Also, why do you think there isn't a single big swedish e-sportsorganisation? :O I think it's really strange, we've a lot of topplayers in basically every game, but not a single top-multigaming team.

Looking forward to the interview, cArn has been my favourite player since I've started playing CS back in 2006, and I have a big smile on my face everytime I listen to a interview with him.

2012-03-08 23:37:12
What are your teammates think about your retirement? How did it affect them? Maybe one of them, unfortunately, lost his motivation? Maybe someome is thinking about retirement too?

I've got a lot of questions to Sir Patrik:

1- What was your biggest achievement during your CS 1.6 times?
2- Best player you've played with and best player you've played against?
3- For you, what is needed in a team in order to start winning some matches?
4- What was the hardest time in your career?
5- Why did you decided to go pro in CS 1.6?
6- What is your dreamteam? (from current scene)
7- How do you, as an IGL, train your team and tactics?
8- What is your biggest dream?
9- How does it feel to win tournaments against teams like ex-Frag eXecutors, SK-Gaming, etc.
10- How did you climb that high on CS scene?

Wish you the best of luck for your studies,
A real fan of yours, CHAOTIX :D
2012-03-08 23:57:34
What was the thing that got you to "the next level" in cs or at sweden at least?
and
when building a new team, what requirements should be considered?
2012-03-08 23:57:44
Hi Carn, i've been playing cs for 9 years and watching you for 6, looking back at your victory carrer, what do you think you'll miss most and how do you feel knowing that you became a legend and have lots of fans around the world ?
2012-03-08 23:58:05
On every map you must have a certain tactic that was a so called "sure-thing", which one was that?
2012-03-08 23:59:21
Who will replace you?
Bad day for e-sports, but good lock in future job. E good job man, you are a living legend!
2012-03-08 23:59:28
1. Judging by fnatic's performances in the last two IEMs (CeBit & Kiev) which, in my opinion, were a disappointment, and you announced your retirement a few days ago. Don't you think it's a bit irresponsible to retire now as it could possibly bring down the team?

2. After you retire, other than working for fnatic behind the scene with Sam, do you have any plan on contacting Valve and possibly working with them developing CS:GO into a more 'playable' game for the 1.6 community?

3. We saw 2011 as one of the most competitive years in 1.6 history, what is your opinion on 2012? Do you foresee any team dominating? Will it be another fierce battle between ESC, SK, and NaVi as in 2011? Is there any team that you think could be the dark horse?

4. You stated in your recent interview that Xizt could be the next fnatic strat caller, if that's the case, does it mean that fnatic is trying to bring in a player that has a different role than you? Are they going to pick an experienced player from other teams? Or is it going to be a totally new player?

Why would you think any of the Lions players want to join fnatic? They have great chemistry in-game, off-gamer and IRL, and lately they've finally been seeing results of long-term loyalty.
2012-03-09 00:36:33
fnatic = legend squad
fnatic = have more money to paid
fnatic = paid more salary
fnatic = have more sponsors


All pro-player dream with play on fnatic, so...
2012-03-09 00:41:15
But Lions is actually a better team these days, so the chances of higher pay in prize money is bigger there at the moment. Furthermore, fnatic isn't what it used to be and I doubt they're getting a sky high salary compared to Lions. They're all on low salary - some lower than others of course.

How does it feel not to win anything in years?
2012-03-09 00:54:13
im sure your probably in a better position to answer that 1 than cArn.
2012-03-09 02:28:27
Oh really? How come? What do you know about me? ;-)
2012-03-09 10:44:26
Sorry my bad i should of known you have won more than carn ! :D
2012-03-09 12:18:41
Beside CS? Sure. Don't know why you assumed I was talking about CS. This is just biased.
2012-03-09 12:43:27
i assumed you were talking about cs because your asking the question to carn possibly one of the most successful people in that particular sport. So yeh i guess you much be 1 of the best in the world at whatever you play football or whatever. What do you mean this is biased? Could i get an autograph if this is Lionel please.

Are you even serious? Carn won the most? :) Have you even heard about the Golden Five or even better the old team 3D? Or the old SK? Come on. Carn didn't win anything in years.
2012-03-09 12:53:58
I was saying hes won more than you anyway and i still personally believe he has until you prove otherwise.
and are you sure about that...
fnatic seem to think differently

CSwise? Sure he did. No question about that. Doesn't change the fact that LATELY he didn't and it has been for years.
2012-03-09 13:05:24
Im sure they won like 3 tournaments last year :S
2012-03-09 13:07:06
You are retarded. Carn is the most successful player in CS history. That's a fact.
2012-03-09 13:12:06
Prove it with numbers and achievements.
2012-03-09 13:12:53
Simko just did, look at the link he sent you retard.
2012-03-09 13:19:21
He did? Where? By posting fnatics propaganda about how great their team is? Oh snap.
2012-03-09 13:21:03
If you had been watching cs for a while you would know and its not that i care but its just that you've been dropping names like old SK and shit because you have watched HeatoNs frag movie.
2012-03-09 13:24:39
Actually I play and follow CS since 2000 sooooo I guess it's not fragmovies ;) But let's make it clear. What did carn and fnatic win over the last years? Since 2007 obviously.
2012-03-09 13:25:55
You sound like a defeated man thinking your getting one over me because i cant name every single 1 of carns achievements hahahaha its a known fact. I know you only just learned who carn was last year but trust me hes been around winning thnigs for a long time.
2012-03-09 13:29:17
Well you just lost. I stated a question, you attacked my but couldn't provide any data or facts just your opinion. Well played ;)
2012-03-09 13:30:32

2012-03-09 13:37:26
"Well you just lost" hahaha grow up mate. Listen to what you sound like your asking me to write down every single 1 of carns achievemtns think about it cmon...
2012-03-09 13:35:05
If you are too retarded to look at his statistics and achievements, then fuck off replying, aint got time to argue with unemployed kids that have played CS for 6 months and think they know everything.

As i said in my first statement, his success is FACT, get over it.
2012-03-09 13:28:32
Too emotional kiddo! :) And again no arguments. Sadly :(
2012-03-09 13:31:15
You provide facts of a leader who has more achievements than Carn. Go.
2012-03-09 13:32:52
This is not how it works. But it's too late anyways. You insulted me proving how sad you are ;)

What about this dickhead?
Stop being ignorant. He is by far the most recognized e-sports player and IGL and his greatness lies in the fact that despite him leading weak team Ukranians and Polish have always mentioned that they find fnatic hard to play to as they cArn is pretty good (best in business) in making strats and anti-strat them and optimally improvise.
2012-03-10 09:36:35

why i change me opinion about your? (when me post was like -carn + fyrrie)?


cuz men i see your form back to top from some like 2 months' it's big advance... i see before hanover you are play better much better than 4 months ago , normal ... but on hanover you'r form are great... soo sad i was watch you long time and critic you much time's and now i am sad realy....

becouze if for that comment's move you to end carrer i will be realy bee sad :/

Could you name a certain "strat" or execution that you used on any map that just did not seem to loose you rounds, of course there are always some things that can happen, but did you in your time ever have and extremely bulletproof strat and could you tell us about it in a few words.

Also when is the last time you went "ah herregud" in ventrilo because you just did some random or sick kill, and do you remember it.
2012-03-09 01:48:43

2012-03-09 02:55:08
Is there anything you really regret in your career?

Did you ever play with Queen and was she good enough to play with guys?

In xP.se for example did you have any IGL? do you think niree digital and hyb would have been top players if they continued?

If Fragbite want to do interwiev with you about your career like they did with zet, walle and probably more players. would you do it?

At dreamhack winter 2011 when the msi commercial came up on bigscreen the croud went crazy when you popped up, did that help you/fnatics preformance in the final vs lions?
2012-03-09 02:59:41
See you topping the new CS:GO.
AND ITS NOT FUCKING QUESTION.

Why did you noticed that you leave 1.6 after IEM before IEM, but not after IEM, and we see that it did a big impact to the results, does it?,
because your team never played so bad..

2. What's next in your life? Education or Job?

3. Who will be the next IGL?

2012-03-09 04:09:18
If someone like ESL asked you to work for them and commentate with Joe Miller every tournament from now on, would you do it? Or is the travelling one of the things you retire, for now at least?
2012-03-09 04:09:42

3.What's the retiree 'dsn' been doing these days? Does he still play CS just for fun, such as in Weekends?
4.Sorry that you didn't show your best in IEM6 WC and bring more honor to your professional life. Nevertheless, do you still believe that fnatic will conquer the CS community someday? Or just falls apart like other successful organizations?
2012-03-09 05:00:38

First of all respect to you Patrik and gl in your future ventures.
What part of Pro-Gaming would you miss the most apart from the matches?
A lot of the fans feel there is no such IGL that can replace you ever. But apart from Xizt which you mentioned in an interview who do you think can fill your place?

No questions but just a standing ovation! :(
2012-03-09 06:36:44
-How does Patrik feel about going out on such a low?
-Does he think he should of retired once Forest/Get_Right left?
-Whos IGL does Patrik respect the most?
-The amount of knowledge Patrik would have about CS would be phenomenal, has he any intention to share it with the public?
-Any plans to be the next Fatality? i.e Product branding, commentating, event appearances?
-How do you feel about the BENQ adverts with Spawn/HeatoN? Do you feel they portray a negative image either inside or outside of Sweden?
-How would you prefer to spend your time now that you won't have 40 hours practise each week?
-If you could change one gameplay element in professional Counter-Strike 1.6 what would it be? Why?
-Do you believe Denmark would have a top 2 in the world team if Friis, Trace, Ave, Karrigan and Zonic all played in the same team?
-Using your vast insight, do you intend on commenting on the scene, becoming more public with your opinions in future, such as your personal favourite players, tournament predictions or even negative comments such as bad line-up choices, people who need to be replaced?

Just to name a few. I would like to say that it has been a pleasure watching Patrik and his teams all the way from Australia. You're an inspiration to all would-be in game leaders around the world and I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours and I would love to see you explore down under in the near future.

What are your future goals concerning esports?

Have you ever thought about commentating matches as an in game expert, same way as Lurppis does?

Is it possible that you will become new team coach for fnatic and what kind of role would that be?

Is it possible to see carn playing some other game professionally in the future? :)

What are your thoughts on cs:go? Do you think that it could appeal on both, cs 1.6 and source communities in a way that cs could get back it's old mid 2000 glory?

Looking back. Do you have any regrets about going pro? Would you do it again?

A ball park figure... how much money have you made overall on your esports career?? :)

"There were so many roster changes the past few months, do you think fnatic needs a fresh batch of players in order to start a new era? How does it feel you won't be part of it ?"

2
"cArn will always be a nickname to remember. But in reality we barely know you as a person. Who's the guy behind the "mask" ? If you could travel to the past, would you stop yourself from playing Counterstrike?"

3
"cArn is leaving for good. Was that an over night decision or a well thought one ? What will be the thing you will miss more about gaming scene? Are there any chances to see you as a coach?"

Thank you.

What do you think about this players? Probably they are the best in-game leaders over the past years: ave, mooN, walle, XeqtR, vesslan, lurppis, Rambo, solo.
2012-03-09 08:41:28
1. How was you stay in fnatic so far with different line-ups?

2. You were supposed to retire in 2009? What made you think not to do so? Do you believe fnatic team will be able to produce good results after your departure?

3. After ESWC 2010 why did you take Gux back when you could services of Delpan back then as you needed good awper on the same level with markeloff?

4. Tell us one or two line about each of the players you played with in fnatic.
2012-03-09 08:53:57
The fourth question is especially cool :)
2012-03-09 09:10:58
No need for bold abuse.
2012-03-09 09:46:40
2nd best IGL of all time imo, right behind walle
2012-03-09 08:54:10
What separates from yourself from other great ingame leaders such as gob b, walle, xeqtr?
2012-03-09 09:02:01

2012-03-09 09:09:34
I know that you probably cherish all the moments of your career but still is there a special and most touchy moment that you remember the most ?
2012-03-09 09:10:00
Do you have contact with your old teammate "ins" and how is he managing not to play any more - do you think you will be as happy (or not) like he is with your new lifestyle, challenges etc.?

1. How your early begin in CS look like? People thought that you're geek?

2. A lot of people are trashtalking after bad match of some player/team. What we (community) don't know about making a team? What is the most important?

3. Will you be a coach of new fnatic line-up?

4. You were traveling around the world, which country you like the most?

5. When your team is losing what igl should do?

6. Aim-wise how important it is? 50% impact or more?

7. People are looking on scoreboard many times, igl is underrated, did you feel sometimes underestimated?

8. People are asking about the most important victory but i will ask about your painful lost.

9. Do you feel that your life is oryginal because of eSport career?

10. Who inspirated you to playing?

11. Why are you igl? Do you like it?

I think that's all for now.

I would like to thank you for those crazy years. You were and you are great inspiration for me. I wish you best of luck in future life.

Greetings from Poland. ;)

How often have you had discussion with your teammates relating the "philosophical" stuff . By that I mean not talking to them about the game , but about how to view the game from the "outside" and how to win matches . Do you consider that CS is only , ONLY a state of mind game , considering the fact that every "decent" player knows the game pretty well ? Do you think it isn't all about experience or aim or skill and that it is something else ? What's your point on that ?
2012-03-09 19:13:08

Is it true that u retire cs beacuse it begins to die?
2012-03-09 19:25:23
It has become a tradition somewhat these days to get in players from other countries to join other teams.

Why do you see it a necessity to get in players from other countries when there is already so much of talent back home keeping in mind that such a move could lead to communication and cultural gap among the team members.

Also Do all the players have a say when such a move is being made or is it only you and sam that decide the changes that are to be made in the team

Do you see any one from LIONS fitting in the current fnatic lineup?

This might be a little too personal but oh well.

What do you plan to do for a living after you retire from gaming? You have been a professional gamer for a long time and tournament prizes, advertising gaming products were your only "jobs" if I'm right.

I have a question, not only to cArn though, anyone that knows please reply..

First of all, before you became a cs professional, did you graduate from college and or highschool?

And also, if you are 25+ years old when you quit cs, how the hell are you supossed to find a job? I mean its harder to get a job when you're older than if you just graduated from university for example...

So how do you supossed to find a job when you're old?
2012-03-10 11:21:05
maybe he dont need a job. Maybe the money he has won from all the tournaments is enough for his life :D

Trully sad that he left professional gaming , he was one of the few that could play on the highest level for more than 6 years and i salute him.I don't expect an answer but let me put it up anyways.
-How does one manage to keep his best after such a huge time span , what motivated you and are you sad because you left the thing that made you happy ? - It's a dream when you can live off and do what you love and do the best. Sincerely a big time fan ^_^

And one more question.Could you please tell us a bit more about gtr's and forest's departure? What caused it and how you felt about this one?

Thanks a lot, it's sad that you retired, but glhf in your future, hope it'd be as bright as your cs career.

During your career as an IGL, have you always created new tactics for each single game or did you have a set of tactics to 'use against anyone' ? How is it that you used to prepare for games, watched demos, etc ?

How do you see gaming in general in, say, 10 years from now? What type of games do you think will predominate ?
2012-03-11 15:35:29
What you think about cs:go, he destroy cs 1.6 and gonna be a great game or a fail by the valve? For who many time cs 1.6 gonna be alive?
