Creolophus: Not our best day I guess

[s]interview[/s]

Creolophus up against the wall after tonight's WC3L premiere against Team NoA. The Norwegian Night Elf lost to MinHyuk.
- I think I've been reading too much about Night Elf owning Orc so hard so I was too confident before the game.

"It's always fun and a bit special to play offline" says Creo about the WC3L finals.

Okay, first match of the season. You went up against MinHyuk and lost 0-2. Could you explain the games a bit?
- First game was cross map Gnoll Wood with health fountain. I thought I had a pretty good early game making him town portal and such. I got creep-jacked a bit in the lower corner midgame, but still thought I had the game. Not too sure about how I lost so hard in the end.

Second game I thought I'd give it a try with the same strategy on a better map, but after I tried to creep-jack him I had my bears eaten and heroes got focused so had to use my town portal. Tried to do a fast, risky creeping to make up for the disadvantage, but I didn't have my units healed up when he went for my base.

What did you think of your chances when you saw you were up against MinHyuk? Have you played him before?
- I think I've been reading too much about Night Elf owning Orc so hard so I was too confident before the game. Right now I can't remember any other meeting versus him.

Being the reigning champions, losing in the first round is not a good sign. Comment on that?
- Not our best day I guess.

The "4Kings is nothing without Grubby" opinion that exist in the community didn't really get any weaker after this match. What do you have to say to those who says so?
- He's very stable and is more important since he plays both 1on1 and 2on2. However there are still 3 1on1's and I don't feel todays clanwar completely illustrate 4K's strength without Grubby playing.

Why didn't he play today?
- Putting his focus on the upcoming WarCraft 3 World War match versus Moon.

You were put in the spotlight when winning the deciding game against Susiria in the Grand Final of WC3L. What did you feel when Susi typed GG?
- Felt pretty good, but at the same time it was a close series at the first time we played in the other clanwar so it could have gone both ways.

Was that your first time playing the WC3L finals?
- Last finals I was in 4k and at the event, but was barred from playing since I joined a couple of days too late.

So how did it feel to actually be playing at the WC3L finals?
- It's always fun and a bit special to play offline, but at the same time I wish I had played some more matches, as I only played Susiria and Hotlips.
