Qualification review
Stats: 3 Wins, 0 Losses, 9:4 Submatches
For some people,
Gravitas Gaming might seem like a playdown candidate, considering they already failed to qualify last season, with almost the same lineup.
However, this time they proved that they are capable of beating stronger teams, like ex-
hoorai and
nGize.
For their first season it must be their goal to avoid the direct relegation. In the end it will all come down to the motivation of the players - the players' channel echoing with "cgs!"...
Interview
For this team presentation we were able to catch up with the team manager of
Gravitas Gaming,
Sunny:
WC3L.Jupe: Hey Sunny, thanks for taking your time to answer some of my questions. Can you tell me how you feel after directly qualifying through the winner bracket?
GG.Sunny: Well , it feels really great to see our hard work is paying off, but I mean after that sad qualifier last season we had to show ourselves and the enemies how strong we normally are. Qualis are always hard and you can never be the total favorit, because every team can pull out any crazy move. So, I was really relieved, after Hooligan won the game vs Shriek.
WC3L.Jupe: So you were nervous until the very last game. But now that you finally made it to the WC3L Season XIV, what are your expectations? Do you want to beat a certain team, place at least top something..?
GG.Sunny: I can say we are motivated like hell to reach the offline finals; a team like Gravitas should always have the highest goals. In the NGL we already showed how strong we can be. Now our goal is it to show our WC3L enemies that we play the same here. So I can say we want to reach the top6, at least.
WC3L.Jupe: That is good to know, it is always enjoyable for all the viewers to see a motivated team play. Finally, is there anything else you need to say?
GG.Sunny: Well, I want to tell the european teams out there to keep up playing. You guys can see our team also facing the Asians and we don't always lose. Then I would like to thank Gravitas, who gave us the option to play for them on a high level and of course a big thanks to our Sponsors: Betmost, Severstal and Steelseries.
WC3L.Jupe: Thank you again for the interview and good luck for this season.
Jupe,
