ShahZaM: "We're ready to take on anyone considering it's BO1"

After Misfits defeated FlipSid3 with ease on the first day in Atlanta, we caught up with Shahzeb "ShahZaM" Khan and found out more about the team's preparation, their first match, and their biggest threats at the qualifier.

Misfits have joined Vega Squadron, MOUZ, and FaZe in the 1-0 pool heading into round two, having defeated FlipSid3 with ease following a 14-1 Terrorist side on Overpass.

In our next interview from Atlanta, we spoke to Misfits' AWPer Shahzeb "⁠ShahZaM⁠" Khan to see how the team feels about their chances.

Hmm. I doubt it. They are able to take on anyone, maybe it will be tough against top teams like FaZe but it's bo1, a high potential of upset considering Misfits' rigourous stratting again F3.

Are you living under a rock or something ? He's been their best player recently and I've found him much better than before, he doesnt overpeek anymore, he's playing aggressive when needed and knows when to stop. He is playing so much better now.

What is the threshold in your opinion for good? Top 10? 5? I don't think anyone with a functioning brain is going to call a team like NiP or North anything but good. They aren't great or anything though, obviously.
