How are you doing?

Were you bootcamping with the team for the DPC season, or were you playing from home?

Congratulations on making it to the Bali Major!

This will be your first DPC Major tournament.

How do you feel?

But I am slightly nervous as well because all the best players in the world will be there.

Bleed Esports, with the same exact roster, finished 6thin the DPC Spring Tour.

What changed in the DPC Summer Tour that you dominated the league?

The addition of coach Rasmus “MISERY” Filipsen changed our fortunes.

He gives us directions on how we can use our collective strengths in the most effective manner.

A good coach makes a huge difference, no doubt!

Do you also think the release of Dota 2 patch 7.33 helped your playstyle?

Your teammate Daryl Koh “iceiceice” Pei Xiang was playing at TI1 when you were 9 years old.

Did you watch the event back then?

No, I didnt.

I started playing Dota when I was 13, which was a few years after that.

iceiceice is a legend in the Dota 2 community, and especially in Singapore.

Is it like a dream come true playing beside him?

Is he one of the main players in the team who does the shot calling?

In your view, how has the SEA Dota 2 scene changed in the last few years?

In recent times, I would say the SEA Dota 2 region hasnt been doing too well.

Other than Talon Esports at the Lima Major, the region hasnt managed to place well in international tournaments.

Why do you think that is?

What is SEA lacking?

Its a bit hard to put a finger on what the other teams are thinking.

Most players cannot pinpoint the problem after losing.

I see what youre saying.

There arent one or two teams from SEA that are constantly putting up a challenge at international tournaments.

How do you like the current DPC system?

What changes would you like to see?

If I had to make a change, it would be evenly spacing out the league games.

Sometimes, we end up getting a break for five days, which is not what teams want.

Dota 2 patch 7.33 was just released, do you like it?

What is your favourite and least favourite change from the patch?

Of course I like the patch.

I dont think there is anyone who hates this patch.

There are more creeps on the map to farm.

My favourite part of the patch is the addition of more neutral camps and the Twin Gates.

If your team knows how to use the Twin Gates well, it can be game changing.

For least favorite changes, Id it is the buffs to annoying supports like Silencer.

How does the mid role feel right now?

The mid lane is a lot different as compared to the last meta, but I do like it.

There are multiple ways to play the mid lane.

In terms of the mid lane being a bit of dead lane, that is surely the case.

I have noticed that the side lanes have a lot more action than the mid lane.

You will be facing some of the best teams in the world at the Bali Major.

Is there any mid laner you are looking forward to playing against?

It has to be Quinn Quinn Callahan.

Im looking forward to facing him.

Ill be looking forward to watching those matchups!

My dad introduced me to Dota 1, which I played when I was 12 years old.

I started playing Dota 2 a year after that.

I always had a high MMR, even when I was young.

What do you like to do when you arent playing Dota 2?

Do you play any other games?

I like watching TikToks.

I used to play Overwatch, and also Fortnite when it was really popular in 2018.

But I was never good enough in those games.

I dont think first person shooter (FPS) games are my thing.
