They have really strong Attack and Defense sides and we tried to make sure that we put out our best on every round that we played against them because they are a team that can easily take advantage of their opponent’s mistakes and turn the matchup around in an instant. SugarZ3ro: I have a lot of respect for the EU teams, and we were always talking about why this game wouldn't be easy for us. THESPIKE.GG: You successfully sent Team Liquid and Fnatic, both EMEA teams, back home. I just did what I had to in that situation and it all worked out. So, there isn’t anything special about it nor do I feel so. SugarZ3ro: It's just a matter of putting out the ordinary performance that I do in practices at an international stage. How did it feel like putting an exclamation point in a high-stakes matchup like this one? THESPIKE.GG: You took an Ace in the last round. It was a poor showing from us and when we go back to practice, we’ll review the VOD and try to fix it before going into our next matchup. At the moment, I am not sure about where we specifically went wrong. SugarZ3ro: On Haven, the strategies we had prepared against Team Liquid were not successful. THESPIKE.GG: Could you tell us more about what went wrong on Haven, and how do you plan to fix that going into the next matchups of the event? Our team polished up those strategies to a great extent and can rely on me to deliver because I am extremely confident about my own performance while playing Astra. SugarZ3ro: There are some strategies that we can only run with Astra present in the comp.

Despite the nerf to Astra in one of the recent patch updates, what motivates you to continue using the agent? THESPIKE.GG: You are also one of the only players to use Astra in this event. SugarZ3ro: Ever since the matchup against Fnatic, my performance in the matchups started to trend upwards because we, as a team, had grown more comfortable playing on LAN and also acknowledged that ZETA belonged on the global stage. How does it feel like having a huge impact for the team in such a major event?

THESPIKE.GG You have consistently been one of the top performers for Zeta. SugarZ3ro: Before coming into the matchup, our team was confident that Team Liquid was an opponent that we could win against so the outcome wasn’t a surprise for us but we are definitely happy to beat them.

THESPIKE.GG: Congratulations on the victory! How do you feel? THESPIKE.GG was provided the opportunity to talk to the player following the conclusion of the matchup.
