Xizt: "I'd prefer playing vs. VG"

2-11-2013 11:48

We had a short talk with Richard "Xizt" Landström after NiP's victory against compLexity in the quarter-final of ESWC 2013.

NiP made light work of their match against the North Americans, winning 16-6 on de_nuke and 16-2 on de_dust2, turning what was perhaps supposed to be an exciting encounter into a fast sweep.

Landström quickly recaps the series, and looks ahead into the next matches of the tournament, predicting and wanting to meet VeryGames in the semi-final to get revenge.

"Do you think they have potential to get better in the next tournament?" "Yeah for sure, they're a good team, I think this was just us playing better than usual" This is basically what he answered, why is it so hard for you to understand?

"They're a good team" ok he answers but the end of his sentence: "We played very good, that's why, I mean they are a good team." Listen to what he said and don't change everything

that was not the point, you said he could not answer the question properly, which makes me think you didn't understand his answer, at all. My question to you was how you could fail to understand it while it was so easy for me and others?
