[Pika]Nir 'I definitely see us winning Gold next Cycle.'
Pikachu have recently defeated QsQ777 and will be looking to play against Clan Milk in the Gold Division upper bracket Finals.
HonTour's Richard 'Crowslaw' Elder got the oppertunity to sit down and speak with Pikachu's team cpatain Nir about his predictions for the up coming Cycle
You guys have gone through a lot. I remember seeing you first at the DreamHoN Summer Championships and you guys were doing quite well there. I always enjoy seeing the other teams as I find their games much more exciting and less predicting to a degree but you guys have had a good run lately despite the problems.
Nir: Thanks. There has been a lot of changes but I can tell you that we are going to stick to chuckniggest, TPSPriceless, SemiJew, Buch and myself(Nir) as the main five players. We have been the ones playing the last month and I don't see that roster changing anytime soon.
Here's hoping you guys can become as strong as [LION]Lions eSportsKlubb has been lately as a mid tier team making the step up to top tier teams. What do you guys think you guys have to do to prove yourself or catapult yourself to the same success Lions is at right now?
Nir: We need to keep our focus. In most of our best of three games, we tend to completely dominate game one and then lose the next two games, regardless of our opponents. We can't underestimate our opponents no matter who they are. The last few times we have faced [coL]compLexityGaming or [tdM]Trademark eSports we always seem to lose 2-1.
It's hard to break that mold sometimes, but with practice I'm sure you guys can do it and start winning those crucial best of three's.
Nir: If we can do that and not get too overconfident, I think we will get up in that top 8 spot for starters and then improve it from there. Possibly, we can "pull a Lions," if you will. We have been playing about four hours a day as a team for the last four days and we are going to continue tonight. We won't accept another cycle of Gold.
That's always good to hear Nir. Moving on a bit, are you excited for what HoN 3.0 is bringing?
Nir: I haven't given it much thought, to be honest. I started drafting for our team so my thoughts have really been going towards that as of late.
