– How do you like the composition of the participants from the CIS? Who else could be called?

– Good composition. It seems that we called everyone we could, and the final list looks convincing.

– Do you believe in Gambit Youngsters? What do you think about this project as a whole? Hard Legion Esports (formerly DreamEaters) major – luck or natural result?

– Of course I believe and I will closely monitor the guys, this is a very interesting and ambitious project, it is time to reap the benefits.

For the games that took place as part of the online part, both the desire of the players and the deep work of their coach Ivan F1_N Kochugov were felt. A lot of structure, competent decisions – there is a synergy.

The new players of the organization Hard Legion Esports to their success went a long and planned, absolutely predicted growth. The only thing in the stage of “legends” did not “enter” at all, but here, rather, they did not have enough experience.

– Who do you consider to be favorites at the LAN finals?

– The composition of the participants of the LAN finals is very “dense”, and it turns out that there are many candidates for victory. I won’t be surprised if the Cup is raised by Team Heretics, Tricked Esport or GamerLegion with Dennis dennis Edman. Personally, I will cheer for Gambit Youngsters, I also hope for a good game from forZe.

– Which team has the most sniper? Captain?

– ForZe has a strong sniper Bogdan xsepower Chernikov. You can also highlight Dmitry sh1ro Sokolov from Gambit Youngsters and Brian Maka Kandu from Team Heretics.

Among the captains, I recommend paying attention to Michael Maikelele Bill (SMASH Esports), Nikolai HUNDEN Petersen (Tricked Esport) and Fabienne kioShiMa Fie (Team Heretics).

With all this, the teams have gathered very equal, and the fight will be hot. To understand who is stronger now, you just need to wait for November 15 and look at the games.

– What do you think about the shooting range 2 in the CIS? Are we stronger than Europe?

– Our scene is basically strong, the results at the major tournaments are proof of this.

Is Europe stronger? Too subjective, now the shooting range 2 is very “tight”, you need to take a certain number of tournaments and evaluate them according to the results, of course, after the majors.

– In your opinion, are there potentially new “simplices” in the CIS now? Which of the players or teams do you single out?

– There are talented ones, but the question is how much they are ready to work on themselves, to set tasks and solve them. If you look at the same Gambit Youngsters, forZe and Winstrike Team, you can see real professionals who are in the growth stage.

LAN-finals of the second season of WePlay! Forge of Masters will be held from November 15 to 17 in Kiev. Eight teams will play a prize fund of $ 100 thousand.
