Well, looking back to the summer when it was supposed to be here, there were a bunch of different circumstances that led to it not being held here, and I think all of them were kind of solved shortly after. I think it was half the fault of Stockholm people, and maybe Valve has blame as well, so as a whole itโs unfortunate, because it would be a nice place to have TI. But at least we have this Major which is still in Stockholm, so itโs nice that events are coming back.

Yeah, it was nice, I liked Bucharest, but at the same time there was COVID stuff in place, so the event was nice, but there was no crowd. For us, for players, and you know, for everyone else it was kind of different as well. You couldnโt hang out with other teams, it was quite sterile in that way, so it was TI, but it was a pandemic TI.

There were some hints towards Singapore coming out. If thatโs the case, I would enjoy it. To be honest, Iโm just happy the TI gets to be hosted again and hope to have it in a more normal way than last year.

Well, to sort it out, itโs a good thing that young people are coming into the scene, because I think itโs been a bunch of old people for quite some time, so itโs nice. I think teams like OG, obviously you have to look at, their young players are impressive, all of them and theyโre doing well so Iโll be excited to see them go forward. At the same time, theyโre competitors of ours, so I donโt want to see them win anything. So thereโs them, and trying to think of more young players, Iโm sure there are more, Iโm sure there are plentyโฆ

I would like to see more map changes. In the previous patches, the map has been consistently the same for a long time. I think hill wards, for me, itโs a big thing, the vision they give is a little bit too strong, so maybe I would remove some hills or balance them in some way. Apart from that, healing slaves and BKB need to change a bit, they both are a bit too strong. For the next big patch, I would like to see those things.

I think I have more responsibilities now to help out with, not captainship but still, I need to use my experience, in a way, in this team. I didnโt have to do that in the old team, in Secret we had five extremely good and experienced players, Puppey has been playing for far too long. And now weโre a bit younger people, not as experienced so I think me and Matu should contribute a bit with our experience and what weโve done before.

I have 0 plans for when I quit, I have put it off, and when I eventually decide to retire, Iโll deal with it then.

I will always rewatch Paris, Texas, and Chungking Express every once in a while so those are always on the list. As for others, it tends to go periodically, but there was a period a while back where I watched a ton of Yakuza films and really enjoyed this guy called SABU. Postman blues for example is amazing.
