Video: Interview with face

7-3-2012 00:07

We interviewed SK Gaming's Johan "face" Klasson after the first day of the IEM6 World Championship, where SK managed to top their group ahead of ESC and Na`Vi.

Just like last year, SK came out on top of the "group of death". They did so with victories against ESC Gaming, mousesports, Anexis and TyLoo, as well as a tie against Natus Vincere in the opening match of the tournament.

We caught up with Johan "face" Klasson at the end of the day, to hear his thoughts about the matches against Natus Vincere, ESC Gaming and mousesports, as well as how things have gone with Martin "trace" Heldt in this tournament so far.

They played bad the first rounds but then from 14-5 they went to 15-14 so they made a great comeback you cant call that a bad game.

What ?

2012-03-07 01:02

I think Na'Vi will turn this around and win the whole thing now, after those close games. Has to be huge boost! Still cheering for the swedish teams ofc!

well it wouldnt surprise me really. other times when they've struggled in the groupstage and just barely advanced to the playoffs they've usually won the event later on. might very well happen here too. if any team just underestimates navi the slightest due to their relatively weak groupstage they'll regret it deeply.

2012-03-07 00:37

Yeah joe or redeye said that that the teams that struggled in group stage won the whole thing.

2012-03-07 00:39

well they have to lol,they are professionals

2012-03-07 00:49

Cool guy. So down to earth. :)

2012-03-07 00:36

nice iview, face was amazing yesterday.

2012-03-07 00:43

Nice interview, face is cool and he was a beast on groupstage :)

2012-03-07 00:53

He's my favourite player. He's not best, he's not worst, but he have something, something that other players don't, he can make fun, but serious behavior is thing that making him so special. And, as always, face + de_train is logicaly win for team in which he's playing =) GL SK, I think that this lineup have everything which is needed to win IEM =)

2012-03-07 12:59

His "train" vs ESC was just unbelievable!!!!!I entirely agree with "Redeye" who said yesterday that the pressure was compiled on face(like he is weakest link in this roster etc) but I'm pleased to him so badly!!!!Keep on,ginger chap!!!!
