2:39 master finally finally and professional this is for uh na'vi CS2 if you've heard about him if not please subscribe this channel because you will probably want to see him more right after this interview and if you want to see him more at jcs2 on YouTube yes all right tell me about uh the start of the year they TV Awards I was uh watching it from home and it was amazing I was so happy for you guys and how did it how it felt to to be on the stage to get this award it was amazing we as a team won five Awards five Awards out of nine most important being the team of the year of course and they made a statue bigger than the rest there's a reason for that and I don't know just holding the trophy it had so much more weight and uh importance than any of our
3:27 like anchor of the year uh coach in game leader closer none of it held as much value as team of the air so it was kind of it was nice but then of course I didn't feel like we deserved it towards the end of the year because we failed on two tournaments one of which we didn't even win a single game we only won a map but yeah I guess the year was good bad things yeah the year was good in general very good it was very good and the award is a representation of the year so it was uh why eager wasn't there with you is the question that everyone asks uh to be 100% honest he had he had some problems with his documents and he didn't make them in time I mean something happened he could have made the documents in time but his app was not working and he couldn't get uh he
4:13 couldn't call the center so that's why it happened so he was just grinding face it so it's not a bad change I know what the app is and it usually happens so yeah it's just because I didn't want people to think that this was a sign of something you know it it was Igor made a joke on np's Twitter they posted something about making a roster change and then wonderful put some eyes on under it and then he didn't come to the award so some people thought the joing but no don't dream about it it seems like the tournament schedule this year is even more tight what do you think about it and do you have any um tips and tricks to avoid the burnout after for example the years before yes rest is very important and we're trying we're
4:59 going to try to focus on it but of course grinding fixing your mistakes is as important as rest so you have to make ends meat somehow sometimes you work more sometimes you rest more but you cannot burn out if you burn out that's the worst thing that can happen did you enjoy your time resting um without the team yes I mean my rest was grinding YouTube and streaming yeah we've seen we've seen that and the last week I just spent relaxing watching movies eating pizza everything you could imagine I ate so I G up a couple of kilograms but I felt very happy when I finished the the weekend very long weekend when I got back to the boot camp I was full of ideas full of energy it was just a great time to be alive tell me about the bo boot camp what was the main focus did he change anything game wise position wise
5:46 like or you were focusing on just getting into the shape we actually didn't change any positions which which was very surprising we had some ideas to change on Anubis for example uh D nuke but we didn't change because we we can use that to our advantage while other teams made a lot of made some Rost changes they need to work on the Synergy they need to work on their position blah blah blah but we don't because we already know how how we play we have the the basics the fundamentals and we just have to build on top of our strategy book so we use this as an advantage to ourself yes and that's that's what that was my next question because almost all the teams made major changes we are one of those teams one of the minority teams who didn't happily um how does it feel to play now competitive um with on such a shaky scene now I mean we only the
6:35 only te the top teams we've played was Spirit we lost that game two- Z even though we didn't show what we're capable of uh we didn't get too frustrated about it because I mean ancient could have been hours there was a couple of mistakes we shouldn't make that's why we lost the game in overtime so I'm pretty sure there going to be a different result or at least a closer result the next time we play and we practice against uh the teams who have made R to changes they don't look very strong I don't think uh the results are not going to come instantly for them that's for sure they have a lot of work ahead of them and yeah it makes me a lot more confident coming into other tournaments so getting into kav you had even a small boot camp before after the Copenhagen small is not the world we had like two weeks boot camp no after the Copenhagen
7:21 here in K oh yes we had four days you have four days and the leex said that it was like kind of kind of a boot camp what were you focusing on the mistakes you've made on blast yes mhm for sure we focused on a lot of mistakes we made on blast I mean of course we only played PID on Spirit um I think spirit is what we focus on the most because that's where you can really find out how good your shotbook is against Spain I don't think like we played like us uh the setup was different um there's a lot of nuances that led to us playing very bad against pain we still won the game in the end but of course you don't want to win it in such fashion yeah just fixing mistakes and improving our TR to and getting in form because we all had a huge break even though we played CS it's a bit different when to play in a team talking about the game against for that
8:07 there's not much to talk about to be honest because you were amazing it seemed like it was too easy for you I know maybe it's not that fair and good for me to say this but I can say this you can I can as a fan as a as a watcher of the game so uh what was it like from your perspective especially uh remembering your last game if I'm not mistaken you uh lose to them right yes in real we lost to them and here such a smooth game such a smooth maps how was it for you I feel like did just hit a brick wall when they want to do their game plan they just couldn't execute it well enough maybe they over fought the game plan but I felt like we're always a step ahead and we we made some really good preparations for them uh we made a couple of rounds just for them and it
8:53 worked perfectly and winning those rounds they're going on an niost so with more more round and it just we snowballed on this two c side and then Mirage was our pick and we knew how well how they played it I expected more of them to be honest because we still lost to them in Rio but it didn't feel like they were playing as their as themselves I feel like the fact that we snowball them on D too it was their map pick kind of put their moral down towards Mirage talking about the changes we have been seen some changes lately and one of the most the biggest ones is vertigo is out and train is in uh what do you think about train it's historically one of the like legendary nav Maps uh but what do you personally
9:40 think about it now and do you plan to maybe play it in the future train is my favorite map but not the one that got added into the game yes I feel like it's way different to the train we we saw we loved we appreciated we saw so many great finals uh on that map but it doesn't feel like the same train mhm it's going to stay a per band for quite some time still I don't want to play it players don't want to play it I know Andrew wants to play it because it's train but then he slowly for blade any map is a map so it can be played but I don't know it just doesn't look like a fun map to play uh talking about other changes we've we've been we've had an update lately so and you're playing on the new version and updated version of Cs this stage unlike
10:26 the the first stage what do you think about it is FAS and for for what do you think about FAS is a very nice weapon right now I got so many multi kills during practice it feels a lot different when you shoot it's not like the same Famas from the same Famas that it used to be so I enjoyed that change uh MP9 I didn't really notice a change it's still very strong and very very powerful M and people who take MP9 they are not their goal is not to crouch and shoot which is which they Nerf that accuracy and I remember some longrange head shots still you can shoot quite accurately so I don't know I feel like they still need to Nerf the MP9 more even though FAS is more of an options for long range Duos MP9 is still very strong talking about the next game well we have Spirit as the next opponent it it was just confirmed they won estres um so are you excited
11:14 for this rematch it's always exciting to play against spirit because every single time you think now is the CH now is your chance to to the win usually doesn't go out towards air way I think we lost five times to them to them since we started playing which is a lot a lot of times losing to a team but we did beat them once which was great yes you did oh do you think they will have their own era after the major win after blast I think it's possible they have uh really good players to do so I think don't contr compliment each other one is an early gamer the other is a late gamer but I don't know I really don't know I feel like do you think they are stable King because it feels like they won the Kavita last year but then they had their
11:59 downs and ups and uh feels like something might happen that they will uh that that will stop them from error but for now it looks like they might have for now it looks like they're on an upward Trend but I feel like if Don has an off game they're going to lose the game they're very heavily reliant on donk I've never I didn't see many games where Don has a bad game and they win they it's I don't think it's their game plan to rely on D but it still it helps them a lot even even if they make a bad call a bad play there's always to save their asses so I mean it all depends on D and F I guess let's [ __ ] come on oh there's only one
13:02 we like preparing ourselves for a tough match so it's happened no don't remember first MTH score but to other MTH was super close top win some crucial rounds on new and we get a comeback oh yeah so was just a great game for people who are watching who just like if I would see this game it would be really nice and for us it was I don't know we were just trying our best round round round best the events in Nuke were very tense obviously nuke was insane uh especially uh how did you how did you manage to make that comeback we've had a moment on 88 when uh blade uh took a tactical pause he even was joking around about that that he was uh doing the best
13:48 speech of his life but do you remember what was the turning point on nuke when you just torn everything and made that comeback possible no we just didn't make comeb back I don't know I don't remember like actually a lot of after games what's happening in the games but like we got bad by kill 2 and 1210 with 57 smoke a bit a bit of luck but we get what we have who was your MVP on that game from your teammates everyone I mean when he team needs someone he was he was there for them yeah and he was doing some crazy kills sometimes it seems like you get very emotional during the game and not in the good way yeah you it seems like
14:34 you're tilting a little bit or not a little bit never to but when you're doing all the face palms and everything I'm thinking about the rounds yeah kind of I can I can think about a lot of things but it's not something I know this year it was only one time when I was mad it was on blast versus Spirit but other gam I was not so mad I was just chill sometimes it's good to go from because you get the experience M we going to play like this of course I wish I could but I I think it's
15:21 going to be a bit too disrespectful for the enemy team so not but I don't find it uncomfortable playing myself I feel it's Let's fck It come on oh there's only one high so tell me about this game it was it seemed easy especially the first map which ended 133 uh on the second though you had some issues but uh overall what can you say about this game in particular I was pring myself for a tough match like yesterday really yeah I don't know just everyone was hitting we shots and we didn't resist in so much what we were doing versus what we were doing so we just took our rounds what we need to win
16:07 so right before the game I've heard that Mirage was was a more like a surprise pick for you from blade right so the plan was different plan was different but I I like what Mirage Andrew just sense that it's right thing to do yeah interesting uh so you have uh three days off right not three days not off yeah of course course you will have prags but you're not three days of hard practice from 8 morning till 1 a.m. not 8 morning and not 1 9:00 a.m. till 900 p.m. uh what do you think about um your Pointon you might meet Spirit again actually in semis is it doesn't matter who to play against doesn't matter everyone will be strong in playoffs so it doesn't matter
16:53 who me if you can win this tournament you need to win every strong team in GL so it doesn't matter you met spirit in semi-final quarterfinal final if you can win them or win other teams so doesn't matter when that's true um it's first time you will be playing in [ __ ] um and this is the closest venue to our home country to Ukraine we can ever get in this circumstances are you excited to play um with because there will be a lot of Ukrainian fans where we very close to Ukraine and there are a lot of ukrainians in Poland right now so are you happy are you excited to play on SP deck I'm happy because it's my first time I wanted to play it last year but we didn't manage to do it so this year
