Gaimin Gladiators became back-to-back Major champions this past Sunday after claiming the ESL One Berlin Major trophy.
Its their third premiere tournament victory in a row in the span of a couple of months.
Congrats on the victory!
Yeah, it’s crazy!
This series in Berlin was a lot of fun, at least that’s my personal feeling.
I smiled a lot more during this match.
Of course, as soon as the game starts everyone tries their best.
Besides the quality of games, has your day-to-day life changed since you moved to Europe?
That aspect hasn’t changed that much.
It’s still mostly just playing Dota all day.
I hang out with them, I pop up in the studio when I have the time.
Your personal game seems to have gone up a couple of notches since you joined Gaimin Gladiators.
What do you think is the reason for that?
Is it teammates, just playing in WEU, a combination of the two, or anything else?
But, over time, it sort of got better and better as I gained more confidence in myself.
And recently I found some pre-game rituals that have helped me a lot since joining Gaimin.
Nowadays I have no stress at all about how the game is gonna go.
And of course, that helps anyone who plays in this region.
How do you like the mid lane in this patch?
I honestly don’t think the mid is that different.
maybe slightly less because you now have more options compared to before, which is nice.
I like the concept of it, though.
I also like the runes appearing in like packages.
Do you think the new patch favors GGs style of play?
We looked and figured out what we were doing wrong, and reassessed our gameplay.
GG have now won two DPC Majors in a row with the DreamLeague Season 19 sandwiched in the middle.
You will enter the third tour and TI12 as one of the favorites to win it all.
Does that put more pressure on you, or do you like the pressure?
I don’t really feel like the favorite ever.
Yeah, that’s hype!
Big congrats on everything you and Gaimin Gladiators have achieved over the past few months.
If you have any shout-outs to wrap up our interview, c’mon go ahead.
Shout out to all the people supporting me behind the scenes, people helping me along the way.
I wouldn’t be anywhere without having them in the background, so yeah, ty!
