BoBoKa interview at Berlin Major: “We have a shortage of mid players in China”

What would you say your elimination in the top 8 here at the Major is related to?

Neither the patch nor the fact that we had SumaiL had too much to do with our losses.

The main reason we lost to Liquid is because our preparation wasn’t that good.

We made a mistake in the drafts against Liquid and that was the main issue.

It’s been a very long time since we’ve seen a Western player playing with a Chinese team.

Until now, the only one to do so was Black^ in 2014 with Vici Gaming.

Like we did with SumaiL here at the Major.

We have a shortage of mid players in China for sure.

So we had to look somewhere else, to think outside the box.

The main issue was that we couldn’t play together, like a team with him.

Maybe, I don’t really know.

We are afraid that if we find someone good enough, he will retire.

Is there any chance that you will continue with SumaiL?

Oh, trust me, we are trying really hard to get him.

What’s your overall impression on the new patch?

A few teams here at the Major have tried Earth Spirit, which is one of your signature heroes.

Is he truly back to meta, do you like him now?

I need to practice more on Earth Spirit.

Thank you for having me.
