Romanian protoss powerhouse Silviu "NightEnd" Lazar takes the last invite spot for the GGA Cup Grand Final in December. NightEnd joins a line up of excellent players, Thorzain, Mana, Dimaga, Alive and HyuN among the many.

Take me to the coverage hub

NightEnd has been back in Europe for a while now having spent a few months practicing in Korea and has already been reaping results, placing second at WCS Combined Europe nationals and qualifying for the European continental finals. With GGA Cup offering $3,000 first place prize and a high-class line-up, this can be NightEnd's chance to close the 2012 season with a no small accomplishment.

To hear his thoughts on his invite, we sought out Silviu and we could not bypass the opportunity to ask him how does he feel about the GGA Grand Final competition. Confident as always, NightEnd did not hesitate to give some strong statements.

I played for two months against Koreans only. They are good but nothing special and I'm not arrogant when I say this... It's exactly what I feel when I face them. They just play twice as much as foreigners and are somewhat better. I'm sorry if I have to be afraid or moved by how great they are, but I'm not.

NightEnd can be seen in GGA action on December 19th when the final tournament of the event begins.
