What’s the magic behind your absolute dominance on LAN and in the online format?
I think the magic comes from the synergy in the team.

There’s been a few changes in the team since TI11.
Let’s talk about the coach.
Has that changed after you got Cy-?
Is it like that or do you miss the carry days?
Yeah, I do really enjoy playing offlane.
It’s more chill in a way, less stressful if you want.
I’m probably not going back to carry anytime soon.
How do you like the current aura-man meta for the offlane?
It’s very boring, all you do is buy aura items.
It’s like “I buy Pipe now, what’s the next aura that we need?
It’s boring and a little bit OP.
But, at the same time, I don’t know how you could balance it out.
We saw you already trying a universal hero at the Major by playing Ogre Magi in the offlane.
So, talk to us about the universal heroes.
Do they feel OP, should Valve look at balancing a bit the damage gain numbers from strength?
I’m not sure how they can balance it on how damage gain works with stats.
But overall, I do feel in general the concept is kind of broken.
it’s possible for you to see it happening with Void Spirit here at the Major.
Yeah, exactly, even Windranger is being picked again in core roles because it became universal.
It will probably take a while to balance it out.
You played it in the group stage here, do you like the changes made to him?
To wrap up all this discussion about the patch, what are your overall thoughts on the New Frontiers?
Some things are not working really well right now, but we will have balance patches for sure.
Did you expect to be so successful on a new patch right from the get-go?
We definitely didn’t expect to go like this.
Do you have anything that you would like to see changed in the next year’s DPC format?
They drop to Div 2 and it’s like super despair for them from there on.
Shout out to GG, our organization.
