ELEAGUE Major 2017 ELEAGUE Major 2017

Hiko: "It doesn't feel like we won"

23-1-2017 22:53

Spencer "Hiko" Martin shared his thoughts on Liquid's two matches, the triple overtime loss against EnVyUs and the narrow Overpass win against FlipSid3, and revealed how the team have practiced before the Major.

After the second day of play in Atlanta, Liquid are sitting on a 1-1 record, losing to Envy in triple overtime and defeating FlipSid3 16-14 on Overpass earlier today.

We caught up with Spencer "⁠Hiko⁠" Martin to get his thoughts on their two matches, Liquid's preparation, his style as an in-game leader and what Wilton "⁠zews⁠" Prado brings to the table.
