Video: Interview with trace

We interview Martin "trace" Heldt from fnatic after day one at GameGune 2012, where fnatic went 2-0 to win group A.

With heavy delay the first group at GameGune 2012 finished. With wins against WebOne and DELTA fnatic are through to the playoffs, maintaining their first seed.

The latest addition to the team, Dane Martin "trace" Heldt, spoke with us shortly after about joining fnatic, GameGune delays and more.

esc can be pronounced esk, meaning that this bad microphone can throw you off.

trace always adapted every team.You can search for an All-star mini-event that was held on Arbalet Cup where danish/polish mix owned sweden with all communication and stuff. What did I see when he was in SK? GTR sucked balls => they lost to poles Robban sucked at calls => they lost to finns f0rest sucked balls => they lost to Lemondogs
