Cadred spoke to David "jafro" Davidson of Team Zboard after they won all five of their group matches to finish with the best record from any group.
So David, you’ve won all five of your group games, with a total round difference of +90, has it all gone to plan so far?
Yes it’s all gone well so far, some people said we were in the group of death, but we sailed through all of our games with ease. We expected liveonthree to be our biggest challenge, fortunately ben0 stepped up his game to carry us!
Finishing first in your group as you have sees you meet TLR in the first round of the double elimination stage, they’re only here as a mix team and they’ve already lost to Core89 – are you confident?
I think we should be fine against them, they struggled against Core89 on the same map we’re playing them on, so I feel we are the more confident team going into this.
How about other teams you may meet in the elimination stage, anyone you feel can give you a challenge?
To be honest, as we’re a mix, pretty much any of the teams who’ve made it through could cause an upset, we’ve barely played any maps as a team, so we’re just going into the games with an open mind. I think if anyone could surprise us, it would be between Core89 on their favourite map dust2, TLR or Zen.
So, including yourselves, what’s your predicted top three for this event?
Zboard, Zen, hmm, its a tough one... it is a tough one... hmmm.. I’m going to have to go with TLR on experience.
And what about longer term plans? Any future for this team?
No. Lets see how it goes.
