Okay, you are one of the players from the Swedish elite attending DreamHack. Do you think the title will go to a Swede this time, or once again a foreigner?


PGS.PS.KnOfF: Yeah. I hope and think the title will go to one of the Swedish players, it won't be easy because of players like Grubby and Zeus attending. But Sweden have many new talents and players like LiiLD.C, DowaQ and hopefully myself who are able to beat Grubby and Zeus.

4K.FuRy: I think there is a pretty big chance a foreigner will take the title this year, but I'm sure we will do everything in our human power to prevent this ;] I think Grubby or Zeus have the best shot of the foreigners.

4K.LiiLD.C: I think the gold medal will go to Grubby, else I would get surprised. On the other hand I personally hope I could get it^_^ I'm for sure more stable than last winter and know much more about the game and counter strategies for diverse players. 4K have helped me a lot to increase my skill level too which I'm very glad for.

Have you practiced a lot for this tournament? How is your current shape?


PGS.PS.KnOfF: The thing is I haven't trained very much lately because of several reasons.. Most because of of school, but I still been able do to play some ladder and some custom games which I hope is enough.

4K.FuRy: I feel great, I know my strategies and tricks against all races, all that is left is to execute them. My current shape is kind of shaky, beat really good players but then I also lost against players that I should normally beat with no problem :)

4K.LiiLD.C: I've had a lot before this event in school and in the handball/gym scene so I didn't have enough time to prepare imo, but on the other hand I personally think my shape is pretty good. A little question mark on it though.

What do you think of the map pool this year? And the map system?


PGS.PS.KnOfF: I think the map pool is very hard for me, and for Orc overall, since not even one fountain map which is the only good maps for Orc, but I will give my best and hope for the best. The match system is good, not much more to say about it.

4K.FuRy: I like it, I think its the most fair system.

4K.LiiLD.C: The maps is pretty good for elf, having a hard time against Undeads but better against Orc and Humans. I like it.

Anything else you look forward to than the E-sport part at DreamHack?


Yeah a lot, meeting my friends, specially LiiLD.C, FuRy and Zivvi. we will have a lot of fun together

PGS.PS.KnOfF: Yeah a lot, meeting my friends, specially LiiLD.C, FuRy and Zivvi. we will have a lot of fun together, play some poker go party and see what more DreamHack have to offer.

4K.FuRy: 7.000 Sweaty, screaming kids. ;) On a more serious note, meeting 4K is always so nice, and staying at the hotel will be really nice as well ;)

4K.LiiLD.C: Yeah, first of all meeting up with all 4K members and all friends. Zivvi, KnOfF, Raistlin, Endar, DowaQ and all other in the Swedish gaming scene, will be lots of fun. A party on Saturday night wouldn't be wrong either. Else... I'm looking forward to have some days off from everything, days where my schedule ain't fully booked from 08:00-23:00 as usual days, I will enjoy DreamHack for sure! See you there!
