After winning the DotA Pride tournament, GosuGamers.net caught up with MaNia and miGGel to discuss the tournament and the upcoming SMM.

Good evening guys, how you doing?

MYM|MaNia: Fine thanks

MYM|miGGel: Fine Fine

That's good, How do you feel DP went for you guys?

MYM|MaNia: Yeah I think it went well, we got the picks we wanted and we ganged them before they could get much farm.

MYM|miGGel: Yeah we played well, blight are playing very well at the moment, they have great team play but we ended up winning the first game quite easily, the second game was a bit tougher but we managed to finish them quickly.

That's Good to hear, Is there anything you feel the DP admins could have done to improve the tournament?

MYM|MaNia: Yeah they could send us a big trophy for our winner wall, even though its filled with 2nd prize medals at the moment. It would be awesome with a 1st place for once. maybe we will just claim it at SMM.

MYM|miGGel: I liked the tournament. It was fine, don't really know what they could have done to make it better :D

MYM|MaNia: Yeah it's definitely the biggest, it's going to be so awesome to have that many teams meet up and fight against each other. My motivation to win SMM is sky high.

MYM|miGGel: Yeah, SMM is going to be the biggest tournament for us. It's going to be great playing against all the big teams in Asia.

Have you been training a lot for SMM? Been doing anything special to prepare?

“My Motivation to win SMM is sky high” MYM|MaNia: Yeah ever since I found out that we are going to participate in the tournament, I've been trying to watch as many replays from the Asian scene as possible. I didn't know anything about Asian DotA before, so it was fun to see which heroes they used and how their team play was, we have tried to practice as much as possible, but we haven't been practising those 12 hours per day as the Asians claim they do.

MYM|miGGel: Yeah I've been watching the replays I could get, seeing how they gang and how they play as a team.

So you're off to Malaysia, what's the journey going to be like for you guys?

MYM|miGGel: Yeah tomorrow we're off to Malaysia, going to the Kastrup airport at 12.00 flying at 14.00 to Amsterdam. We are arriving at 15.30 then need to wait 5 hours there and meet up with KuroKy and take the plane to Malaysia.

5 hours in Amsterdam, that sounds fun.

MYM|miGGel: It's going to be a long time to wait, doesn't sound fun to me with backpacks.

Do you have plans to go to any city's in Malaysia at all, or are you going to be staying at the LAN?

MYM|miGGel: Really don't have any plans once we arrive, only time will tell.

MYM|MaNia: I hope we get some time to travel around the city and enjoy the scenery.
