I want to be "iTG`ReDeYe"

redeyeHow much do we actually know about the people in e-sports? Ever wondered about things related to the players or the people involved people involved with the tournaments and coverage?

Well this is your chance! First off in this series (if you like it that is) is iTG caster Paul "ReDeYe" Chaloner. In this article you will find everything you need to know to become a ReDeYe!

 

label
Label

I love Puma stuff for some reason, I think it has to do with my stepfather wearing a lot of it when I was young. Other than that I usually have unbranded clothes, I just can't see the point in spending $200 on a set of trainer shoes for example when all im gonna do is fuck them up anyway.

I once bought a fluorescent green/yellow/pink tie, which was pretty horrible. I also used to wear odd fluorescent socks as a child, so perhaps I have some kind of fluorescent fetish that I need to see a doctor about.

Other than that, a tarzan thong which kinda made me blush because the shop assistant asked for size and she said "small, medium or liar?" I replied Liar.
 

car
Car

I hate these kinda questions because a year ago I could have answered "Volvo S70 T5, 2.5 Turbo 300bhp", now I have to answer Vauxhall (Opel) Zafira PeopleCarrier.

I once had a hire car that went back with about 7 more dents on it than it came with after a day out in Paris. But they didnt seem to mind, he seemed actually quiet pleased to get the car back at all...
 

hair
Haircut

They'd call it short back and sides in the 1940's I guess or technically "Army cut". But today, it's pimping bling summer headstylee ya fo sure
 

facial
Facial hair

Right now, I have facial hair. Mainly because I can't be arsed to shave much when I come back from a tournament/event, so I slob out for a few days.

Eventually the missus complains that it's too rough and I shave or I have another event and have to look all "posh" again.

I will have to shave tonight actually because tomorrow I have a TV show to record!
 

drink
Drink

Easy, Tequilla! Oh didn't you mean alcoholic? I just assumed because you know, you are a piss head.
It's usually found in every city on the planet (I even found some in Shanghai), tastes much the same anywhere, is usually pretty cheap and best of all it gets me drunk fast. It's best drunk when already drunk cos that way you cant remember what the fuck your drinking anyway. I was up till 7am in New York last year with the g0d girls drinking tequila.
 

dog
Dog

I have a black labrador (otherwise known as a Afro Caribean Labrador for the politically correct newbs) called Crystal and its 2 years old.

We have had her since a pup and shes wonderful I love my doggie!
 

trainers
Trainers

Yeh loads, all cheap and nasty ones mainly. Except for my puma training boots for football which are yummy.

I do have a pair of mizuno boots too and although they were expensive (like around $200) they aren't as comfy or nice looking as the puma's.
 

hero
Hero

I have no real hero's, but a few people I have admired. All are motorsport related, which is my first passion and has been since 1979. Gilles Villeneuve (died in 1982), Ayrton Senna (died in 1994) and Murray Walker (F1 commentator who is 81).
 

smell
Smell

I have some Adidas stuff here which is ok and a bottle from my wife's business called "Forever" 25th Edition which is ok, it just gets on my nerves a bit.
 

vice
Vice

I have 3 vices: smoking, drinking and dating heartsurgeons. The last one might be planning ahead.
 

esports
E-sports

I like a lot of the guys that I meet at tourneys. Spent some time with all the top guys at one point or another, fatal1ty, vo0, fox, czm, cooller etc. But I have to say my two favourite people to be around are Lauke (just because he's so mad) and TosspoT because you can never have a dull night out with Toss.
 

gadget
Gadget

I want a gadget that allows me to take 100kg of luggage on a plane, but packs it into a pocket sized box that I can take on a plane with me without submitting it to customs.
 

passion
Passion

Commentating is my passion, fully and uncontrollably. Gaming and F1 come second, so I guess you could say I have the perfect job, unless they come knocking for me to do F1. Obviously, my wife and children are a huge factor in all of this and I couldn't do what I do without them, but that's for love and commentating is for passion. Although me and the missus do canoodle occasionally.
 

movie
Movie

I loved the original Star Wars, The Matrix and the big blockbusters like Armageddon (just because they are easy to watch). But my all time favourite movie is Leon.
Movies can be all sorts to me, I have no pre defined idea of what can or can't be good. I'll watch almost anything and enjoy it, I do like the sci-fi stuff though or true stories.
 
holiday
Holiday
Singapore is the greatest place on earth I've ever been to, but for relaxation purposes I'd have to say Spain as that's where my dad lives on an old farm and we get to chill for a week or two without a care in the world in the tranquility. We are off there in a couple of weeks time in fact and I cant wait.

great job. I'd like to see more of these type of articles.
I'm growing tired to see a bunch of facts and scores. I think there is more behind than an image or a nickname and some strategies (any kind they are).

Those Icons are from mostly from the GANT 3 from mattahan. Some or those are from other Packs, from the same author.
