The international clan oGaming faced the very well known Korean team YGclan yesterday. There where not many that believed that oGaming would have a chance to win but they did silence many people with their 6-1 win.
Yet another international team has faced a Korean team, this time it was oGaming who played against YGclan. Not many thought that oGaming would win against the Koreans, but after a well played clanwar oGaming stood as the winner with 6-1.
oG)Pride[tC] and Best[YG] played two times
oG)Pride[tC] and Best[YG] did agree to play one more time so all the seven matches should be played. YGClan agreed with this, and Pride managed to win both matches, giving oGaming two sweet victories. All oG players except oG)Marine managed to win against their opponents, giving oGaming quite a comfortable win.

I manage to talk to oG)Freezer about the victory.
Congratulations to the victory. What was your expectation before the game started? How did you rate your chance to win against yG?
- We at oGaming were always confident because we had prepared for this match a week earlier, and were always planning to bring a strong side. But with Koreans you never really know, I expected it to be closer result!
What did you think of the lineups? The oG lineup are very strong with both Paul and Pride in it, but what about YG?
- I think both teams were missing key players, Example Xellos did not play but that was expected already before the match. [YG] some very good players in Best[YG] and MissPark[YG] who were always going to be hard to win against.
oGaming is not the first team to face a Korean team both ToT and iG have done it and with great results. Do you think that those showgames against korean teams will manage to get the koreans closer to the gaming outside Korea and the other way around?
- Yes ToT)/[pG] and iG. both themselves have played their share of matches against Korean teams which is good to see, I think we are more infatuated with Koreans then they are with us. It could also be arrogance as well that they do not believe foreigners are on par with them. If ToT) now [pG] can gain some more success against top Korean guilds we will see more interest build up from the Koreans to play other clans outside of Korea.
Will oGaming face any other korean teams in the future?
- Well we have recently just recruited Claire Yoon the Korean girl from the gosugamers.net forums. She set this match up for us against [YG] so thanks all to her this was organised. ^^ Claire will be a great link for us in dealing with Korean clans so yes it is a big possibility that we will continue to war against Korean teams.
Thanks for the interview good luck with oGaming in the future. Anything you want to add?
- I would just like to thank all the players from oG) and [YG] that made this event possible!
