Draven talks PLAY QL CA 5v5 tournament

By StreeT - June 20, 2009 at 17:56

The Fnatic PLAY QuakeLive ClanArena 5v5 CUP attracted a lot of attention and a lot of great players and teams signed up for it. We can see top players mixing with their friends from other teams and it is all set for a great QL show tomorrow. Among many participants, some very familiar names are making this tournament more interesting and attractive.

Every move by players such as Forever, draven, link1n and razorx will be broadcasted by our partner, QuakeLive TV who will provide full TV stream. Beside just watching the action, QL TV hosts will talk to various guests and players to bring you closer to their emotions and feelings at that moment.

We caught up with draven from Reason-Gaming, who is playing in a mix team called Bubbels, made mostly of players from Team NL and Reason-Gaming. He was in a rush, but before he left he managed to answer a few questions.

What do you think about this type of tournaments and fnatics effort to support QuakeLive and many other communities?
I think it's great to see QL tournament with prizes, but I think we they should have done a duel or a tdm, those have more activity.

This is our first tournament so I assure you that both duel and tdm will be played. What do you think about prizes and possibility to double up your money?
I think with the prizes there is more motivation, also about the double up your money, I just read it quickly, if you gain like 100 points you're prize money will be doubled, I think its a good way to get people to play BestPoker.

How did you decide to play the tour and how did you guys team up for it?
It's basically, good aimers from the Netherlands, me, razorx, tua, silencep and forever have been playing quite alot in Q3 and as in tdm/ca so we have quite some chemistry also the other players are a good addition with their aims and knowledge of the game.

So you guys are certainly going to do your best to win this one?
I think we can win this, or at least top3.

Who could be your biggest threat?
I think weird monkey, piece of cake, acme, fishtix, are all good teams but we don't know how CA really plays yet versus good teams, we have yet to find out, since on ESL we have beating everyone with 10-0 and the matches took like 5mins a map.

I know you are in the hurry, thanks for the interview and is there anything you want to say before you hit the road?
Thanks to fnatic for making a cup like this possible, I really appreciate it that more and more QuakeLive cups are coming, and thank you for the interview good luck to everyone on Sunday.

    I agree about TDM and 1v1, would have preferred that myself as well.
