H2k picks up classic players

A team resembling the old Tribal is back in the scene of DotA. They were known shortly as eSahara and now go by the name of H2k-gaming.

Baja choose to share a few words about the situation, so without further ado, we'll let him speak for himself.

How do you feel about the team and the sponsor right now, and what do you think of the future?
-"I must say we are very excited! Negotiations went very fast and we will have opportunity to cooperate with professional organization for the first time. Opportunities are big, so are our goals. We are looking for success now, already began to practise and fans are going to see us on almost every major tournament! We are aiming high I must say."

Are you going to try participating in everything?
-"Sure, at the moment there are no limits. If everything goes well( health etc. ) we are planing to attend WDC in mid November. We are already up for BDL4 and Excello Summer Cup. I guess our first LAN should be ASUS Summer.

It's basically the revival of old SRS or xFz, I am sure people will get nostalgic. How does it feel "returning" to the international scene?
-"Me, g0g1, Cat and Mitch have been playing for years and ANdre and grizine are kind of new faces, but they are full of potential. We have a 6 man roster and we are trying to make positive comptetition between players. It shall work out because we are friends in real life also. And yes, I hope we are back on the road of success that we had with SRS and xFz. After short hiatus and short episode with eSahara, we got great offer by great people! It is really great to be back. Scene is bigger now, and competition is tougher. It is challenge that i m going to accept :)"

What do you feel about playstyle of DotA today and the current version?
-"Changing of metagame in latest versions was one of reasons for returning. As we are old teams and we are used to good old gank style, this version really fit us! Also we are trying to be inovative so we are trying out new strategies also. It is good to see that hero picking pool went from 30 to ~80!"

Thanks for short chat, got any shoutouts?
-"Big thanks to fans which are supporting us through years, and also big shoutout to our lovely sponsors Eizo Bigfoot Networks bounce4you SPAM energy drink verygames.net!"
