The Next Red3 Expert!

By Commissioner Sybert - 8th July 2014 - 02:18 AM

Red3.org has a long list of experts who have been a part of the community, including -Netput, JoZhA, iaguz, -XeoNeQ- (Dynamic), vehman, Technique, Avilo, ShadowTerran_II, Crunk 8D, EyEamZero, Dwelf^ nukestrike, Malle, Zlex, Luigi, DasDuelon, sofronel, Maniek, FreeZZinG, BaPor, Mutou, Matiz, TerryBogard, Tingu, 4del, Kivi, Eminence, WalfTheWolf, JulzzZ, YuiYui, and Dankal. All of them have left their mark on Red3.org, Red Alert 3 history, and in some cases have made waves in other games. Today, we continue that long tradition that was started years ago and we shall advance yet another to the rank of expert.

Red3.org: From where do you hail?
LiCtor:I'm from Northern France, near the city of Lille.

Red3.org: Where did your nickname "LiCtor_as" come from?
LiCtor: My nickname come from the game Warhammer 40000 where the Lictor is a superpredator which kill his victims fast and furtivly. I add "as" on my nick because the nick "lictor" was taken when I started playing. In French "as" is a synonym of "alpha" or "leader."

Red3.org: Tell us one thing about yourself that we don't know.
LiCtor: I study medicine and I work half of the year in hospitals, that's why I can play often and regularly.

IPB Image

Red3.org: How many games of Red Alert 3 do you think you've played?
LiCtor: Woaw... Hard to say... maybe 2000-3000 games online, and a lot of skirmish, 3v3, or 1v2v3 vs brutal AI. I do not really know ^^

IPB Image

Red3.org: When you are not tearing up Red Alert 3 what are you doing?
LiCtor: My studies take a lot of time. When I don't study I love playing badminton, being with my girlfriend, or having good time with friends.

IPB Image

Red3.org: What got you into competitive RTS? How long have you been playing? Did you previously play any games competitively?
LiCtor: Before RA3 I played Zero:Hour online for 2-3 years. I played only AM and I never played in a tournament. I did the same for RA3, only AM the first year I played. Then I met GTX 2 years ago and I discovered the community and GameReplays with him.

Red3.org: You're no doubt a top notch Allied player, but how's your Empire and Soviets?
LiCtor: AvA and AvS are my best matches, I have some difficulties in AvE. My SvA isn't bad. My EvA also isn't so bad ^^

IPB Image

Red3.org: Who would you say is the top 3 most difficult players you've ever faced in Red Alert 3? Any particular reason why?
LiCtor: Best Soviet: Tingu, for me he was the monster of RA3 when he was on his top level. The most difficult Allies I have played is maybe c9q9md because of his crazy strats and his unique style. The best Empire I have faced was Queen Oni, it was a nightmare to play versus him (due to his incredible micro and macro, and because of his bad behaviour most of the time with me ^^)

IPB Image

Red3.org: If you had to describe your play-style in 3 words, what would you say?
LiCtor: Defensive, Patient, and No-cheese-cryo.
I'm a defensive and patient player, I don't take a lot of risks and I attack when I'm sure I can do big damages to my opponent. I never play with cheeses because I prefer long and interesting games (I particulary hate mcv and turret push).
I'm known for using mass cryo in AvA and AvS. It's a unit I like playing with in group of 6 vs Soviet, not always to harrass, but in my main army to shrink and crush a hammer-ant army ^^

Red3.org: What is your favorite replay? This can be something recent or an old classic.
LiCtor: My favorite replays are Maniek's replays. I learn a lot watching his replays and his cryo control was awesome. I don't have a particular replay in mind...
My 2 favorites Allies players when I was a mid player were Maniek (for the micro and crazy strat) and YuiYui (for the macro and the strong gameplay).

Red3.org: Do you have any tips for newer players to help them improve?
LiCtor: For the new players: the best way to improve is training, training, training... Watching pro replays gives you some ways to play, but you will improve only playing versus better players than you. Use the keyboard and watch replays of the game you lost to understand why you lost.

Red3.org: You are Red3.org's latest expert player, how does it make you feel?
LiCtor: It's a strange feeling, I know a lot of people wanted me as expert, but I think and I hope the expert chose me because of my level and not because of the "fan factor". It's an honnor for me being considered as an expert.

Red3.org: Any final words for the community as a whole?
LiCtor: I truely love this game and his community. I will miss RA3 if the servers definitely close. Thank you all for all the good time I had with you playing this awesome game! Special thanks too to my clan and the excellent mates I have.

A big congratulations to LiCtor_as in his latest accomplishment of joining a long list of top level Red Alert 3 players!
