What are your thoughts coming into tonight's match as regular season champions?
- I think we are still the favorites today even though its gonna be tough. fosc has some pretty good Koreans and their 2v2 with Yan, Lee or Westside is outstanding. But we are well prepared and i think we'll beat them tonight.
You lost to fOsc in the regular season by 1-4. What speaks for your team this time around?
- We pretty much underestimated them in the regular season. At that time fosc didn't do too well in the iCC CL but they showed up with a pretty good lineup against us. We take it very serious this time and we prepared the maps in the last weeks. In addition White-ra and IefNaij are back in shape. So it's gonna be tough for fosc to beat us this time.
During the regular season, you have used 9 different players in the individual matches. Do you feel you have a diverse lineup and can surprise your opponents? (Thinking that most of your players are top stars with many replays lying around)
- We have about 6 or 7 players on almost the same level. So our lineup is always a bit unpredictable for our opponents. We always observe the current shape of our players and I think we already found a really good lineup for the match today.
Is it wrong of fOsc to use Koreans in their lineup?
- Personally, I dont like it too much, especially if they are hidden under Russian flaggs but i think they changed it by now. But the iCCup CL is still a foreign event and the admins should at least restrict the abuse of Korean mercenarys. If other teams take it as an example, the league will definitely lose in value to the foreign teams.
- In addition, no one can really comprehend who is actually using these fosc ids. They already got kicked of the first BWCL division due to this issue. So I do hope the admins will find a way to get fair conditions for the next season.
