boltz: "Let's see if we can win this tournament so we can prove [the critics] wrong"

Immortals took down fnatic in the decider match of group D to secure the final spot in the playoffs of DreamHack Masters Malmö. After the game, we talked to Ricardo "boltz" Prass—who had a brilliant game against the Swedes—, about Malmö, the Major, and horvy's signing.

With a 2-0 victory over the Swedes, who they defeated in the opening match as well, Immortals booked a spot in the quarter finals, where North await them.

As the day was coming to an end, we managed to talk with Ricardo "⁠boltz⁠" Prass, who finished the series against fnatic with a +26 K-D and a 1.72 rating. Immortals' in-game leader touched on the internal issues tied to the signing of João "⁠horvy⁠" Horvath, their matches at this event and what he thinks this result means compared to the second place at the Major.

the interviewer asked the first question about the game vs fnatic, but didn't said was about the first bo1, so boltz answered about the game he just played, and after that he asks the question again about todays game vs fnatic, so boltz had to answer the same question two times cause the first question wasn't specific about wich game vs fnatic.

Respect! After lucas also boltz is interviewing in english. I think all the pro players with their 5/6k salaries should be able to give interviews in english albeit a struggle. Just try it.
