"I think we played good and expect we could be better in next season." he says.

9s were the reigning champions in RTB before, and with the comings and goings in the clan, you never know what will happen. RangeR though says that they have a good communication with the new members, and that they always talk to them about tactics and details. The interview is quite short, and brings up apart from the recent RTB tournament and RangeR in person a lot of news and thoughts about the clan 9s.

The last but not least is of the Korean powerhouse Orc player

SK.Zacard (pic). The interview contains many questions and answers about Zacard and his Orc playstyle, especially his Blade Master usage. They also bring up the fact that he went to Germany to take part in tournaments there and training with other SK members. He says that he has gained a lot, but that he still has some "pities". By that he means certain matches where he knew he could have done better, why he played so bad at that time and so on.

His geogpraphical state of mind has also changed since he travelled to Germany. "I think the world is so big after I came to Germany, haha." he said. Other than this, the interview brings up WEG, WCG and ESWC plus all the Korean tournaments. It is a well-written interview, and contains a lot of interesting facts.
