Luminosity: "Have to be champs here"

14-11-2015 22:57

We spoke with Luminosity's Lucas 'steel' Lopes and Ricardo 'dead' Sinigaglia about the Brazilian team's qualification to the semifinals of the iBUYPOWER Cup and the team's overall prospects.

Luminosity paved a road of fire on their way to the semifinals of the iBUYPOWER Cup, after defeating Winterfox 16-5 and then 16-0'ing Renegades to advance.

After the winners' match, we went for a stroll with Lucas "⁠steel⁠" Lopes and Luminosity's manager to talk about the performance of the Brazilians at this event, at CEVO Season 8, and about the general state of the CS:GO community in Brazil and North America.

More of our interviews from iBUYPOWER Cup are forthcoming and other HLTV.org videos can be found on our Youtube channel here.

aaha

2015-11-15 01:14

post-ace Steel is very cocky.

2015-11-15 00:36

Should be an easy tournament for them but will see when we get to the best of 3s if they choke or not.

2015-11-15 00:54

I think they got Cloud9 in the bag... Conquest can maybe create some trouble. In my opinion, the only real team to overcome is Liquid.

2015-11-15 04:04

Cloud 9 actually suck, they have one good player is Skadoodle the rest of the team playing bad for months nothing to worry about there, you only need to worry about CLG or Liquid.

THE ONLY tournament c9 played well, was last ESL ESEA.. I Never saw them having good performance in ANY OTHER. I really don't fuc* know how peopple says they are top1 America.

2015-11-15 17:25

Thank god you work for hltv because your interviews are a lot better than striker's. No disrespect to striker though .

2015-11-15 01:04

Are u kidding? This looks like a job interview, so dry

2015-11-15 01:21

Have you seen striker's interviews?

2015-11-15 01:28

Yes, well at Cluj at least, and I liked it tbh

2015-11-15 01:33

Well i guess it's preference then.

dead the best

2015-11-15 02:20

Dead said it the best at the end. I've been a big fan of Luminosity ever since they broke into the scene and then moved to the US. Cheering for Luminosity at this event definitely!
