MSL: "I never liked playing NiP"

Yesterday dignitas kicked things off with a solid victory over Titan, but today's first series with NiP didn't go their way despite dignitas' solid performance on de_mirage. 

The team's in-game leader, Mathias "⁠MSL⁠" Lauridsen shared a few thoughts on the loss and expectations going up against Titan once again for the other spot in the playoffs.

You have quite a history of playing each other, what were your feelings going up against NiP?

First of all, I don't like playing NiP, I have never liked playing NiP. With that said, I think we had a good chance of beating them at DreamHack Summer, we were close on Cache, even though we didn't play well and we lost some stupid rounds. We were feeling confident and we thought we could do it and it was close.

What did you think about the last map? You were trading rounds back and forth, but then they started getting the edge, why do you think was that happening?

As CT it felt like they got easy rounds in the beginning, and when they get so many easy rounds, it was hard when we came to a point where it was 5-4. We had hard rounds, it began to crumble a little bit and they got the clutch rounds in the late stage of the match as CT, so I think that's why we didn't get enough rounds as CT. It was too hard as T.

What are your chances against Titan now, what do you think about playing them again?

I have always felt great playing against them, I like playing against them. Actually, I don't think I have ever lost to them on LAN and Pimp and Nico haven't either. We are feeling confident and we're gonna beat them again.

For now dignitas have a couple of hours before they will meet Titan again, the deciding match of group A will take place as soon as the second round of group B is over.
