This is soo fucking good. I wish more e-sports enthusiasts paid attention to Quake. Regardless of Quake Champions many problems, the guys that compete are unlike any other players in any of the other big games. Thanks Rapha and Thorin.
Damn, rapha is incredibly articulate and thoughtful here. That's actually impressive and relatively rare among esports stars IMO. Gained quite a bit of respect for him for that.
siziyman Rapha’s naturally articulate. Check out his explaining his match against Cooller if you haven’t already. He laid out his thought processes and predictions very well.
This was pure gold. Thank you so much for doing this, both of you! Just to share, one thought I had while watching is to do some type of 3 word summary for the guest to describe each of the players/people on their "mount rushmore", and then to describe their gaming style/mentality in three words
Rapha was alwayse one to watch up. Hes playstyle is and was just awesome. I net him in one tournament in italy (UGC) back in the days. I was in the same group as him and other big players! It was awesome to get destroyed by a pro like him. He even let me choose all maps because i was no enemy for him, but he didnt let me know that, he was pro enought to let me feel also like to be a respected pro :)
Great interview. Although, I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't acknowledge or have forgotten that evil won against Rapha on Dreamhack winter 2012. Scoring 3-1 to evil. And also in a very dominating fashion.
It would probably be too technical and niche for a 2 hour show with Joe Rogan. Thorin is probably a better candidate for a Joe Rogan guest. Thorin also mentions Joe Rogan in his influences video on his side channel, so he obviously respects him a lot.
@@DirtyPoul Doubtful considering he's played Quake, very seriously, in his past. Before a lot of his other hobbies more active hobbies this dude LAN'd Quake 2 duels/tdm...very possible to have Rapha over Thoorin, be mindful Rapha can likely talk about many more things.
@@gl00merz That's true, I remember him talking about that in an episode. I had forgotten about that. I guess it could happen, but the problem is that there is not a whole lot of wide appeal for an episode with rapha. I'd love such an episode, but realistically, Thorin would have a wider appeal because he'd be able to better talk about esports in general and the historical side of how it has changed throughout the years. That would have a lot more appeal than going in-depth about Quake for 2 hours. Yeah, they could talk about other things, but it would be mostly about Quake. Why else would you invite rapha?
@@DirtyPoul Just for his insight, personality, articulation and thoughts on various matters, his opinions, etc. religious discussions, political, literally anything - rapha is able to TALK at length endlessly, which is something most people find exhausting
Thorin, don't make me subscribe to your Patreon... I swear, I'll do it! Keep up the great content, from Quake, CS, Overwatch, and everything else you do!
I could listen to Rapha talk about quake forever
I feel similarly, and I've never played quake.

The guy turns quake into a hard science, an incredible mind
I been having a blast on quake champions. Now this is 2 years later tho lol
That Elder game vs evil was insane
Check out the reflections with Rapha if you haven't. It's one of Thorin's best.
Amen. Praise Lord Rapha
Favorite e-sports competitor of all time. Great interview Duncan.

There! ruclips.net/video/XdkDjsBiO58/видео.html
Thooorin always looks so excited when he's talking about quake
That was a delicious 90 minutes of Quakery, thank you both.
We need more Rapha interviews. Guy is so damn eloquent.
What a great interview. Big ups to the interviewer who really knew what he was talking about

BEST. GUEST. POSSIBLE. I wanted to hear more from rapha when I watched the battlerap interview and he got mentioned
Can you please provide a link to that battlerap?

Another fire interview on thorin's side channel. Made me feel like the world is a small place.
@@VivaLaRazsa video is private now 😥
@@DrGetgood the video got reuploaded. Just search for thorin fresco
I've always wished there were an anime about the world of competitive Quake.
Bruh that would be too funny
Yep, good characters in there with the old-school top contenders (many of which are still playing QC).
this has the potential to be one of your best videos

What a smart, well spoken player!

I wish Duncan did the same interview with Cooller!
Cooller has atrocious English. Regrettably.
YES, this gonna be good.
I want rapha to talk Quake with Joe Rogan. Someone please make it happen!
Woah that was some silverback shit! Have you ever seen one without the hair?
