Sweden's team captain Drayich speaks

Drayich is a characteristic player with a solid team behind him. Representing SK-Gaming, and Sweden as well, GosuGamers talked to Kim "Drayich" Larsson.

The team captain of Team Sweden is Kim "Drayich" Larsson, a 24-year-old man from Falun, Sweden. Each team captain was chosen by Maelk, Lego Metro and Season_of_Mist, high profiles in the scene. When asked on how it feels to be the captain of Sweden, Drayich tells GosuGamers that feels very good and that it is a heavy title to bear. Team Sweden consists of ten players, where many of them come from SK-Gaming, the same team Drayich comes from.

- I can use three players from each clan per match, says Drayich and adds that Zebob is an exception because he wasn't in SK-Gaming in the start. So for this season, he is counted as a freelancer. Other known names in Team Sweden is JesseQ, a high profile here at GosuGamers.

A total of 40 teams in the tournament. Will it work?
- There will be some of the teams that won't fulfill their participation in the tournament, that's my guess, says Drayich and adds that it is not because of the high number of teams but because of having a good captain.
- You have to build a team who can stick together for a long while, if not then it will be tough to fight for the title, he adds.

And apart from the title? Well, there is €1000 at stake. Drayich says that good organization is needed to reach far, and that he knows how to do it.
- I can arrange matches and can make sure that my players will be there on time. While it's ingame I don't make the calls myself, we do that together, he says and points out that he is a humorous guy who keeps the team spirit alive while playing.

Drayich is disappointed after losing a game to Norway in the first playday.
- Looking at the players the rest of the nations in our group we shouldn't have lost any match, but we lost to Norway, and they're probably our strongest opponent in the group, he says. Next up for Sweden is Lithuania, a match the Nordic country shouldn't have a problem with. The nations Drayich is most afraid of are teams he does not know of.
- Korea for example is a team that I might worry about since I don't know their playing style.

It will be interesting to follow Sweden, and this new national tournament.
