Interview with the Champions

NO.3021 | Date: 2016-05-16 07:19:12

 


GM Dime: Our First ever 2016 Super Crew League has ended and the champions
for each server have been declared. Now, we have here the champions to answer
the questions that the FS2 GM team has prepared.
 

First off, let me introduce you the following ballers.

We have here our very own FS2 Supporter, DBLL and his team mates
HOPIA, KobeBryant. The NA server champions, dUP crew.

We also have here today, oPulsaRo, iRuby and liSuPerManil from Asia Server 
collectively known as IAvengersI.

KKKTHXBAI is also with us to represent EU Server’s Reborn.



GM Nutmeg: Congratulations for winning the 2016 Super Crew League!
How does it feel to be the champs of our very first super crew league
tournament?


oPulsaRo: I'm very glad. I didn't expect to win this tourney, but we did it.

DBLL: It's a humbling feeling to be one of the handful of teams to win a
32 team tournament (let alone the biggest one in FS2 history).
I almost became accepting of the fact I would be the Iverson of FS2.
Can ball out and get to his first finals, but can't quite win it all.
But I just kept pushing til 0:00 another 3 times.

iRuby: I was so glad to get the win.

H0PIA: I Feel Honored And Proud To Represent dup Crew Became
The Champion In Very First Super Crew League Tournament.

KKKTHXBAI: It feels nice, Since this is my first tournament winning as a PF.

KobeBryant: Thank you, it’s truly a blessing to win it all. I couldn’t be any
more proud and happy for my teammates. I feel like Kobe Bryant right now,
when everyone doubt us to win it all. UGH!
FEELS SO GOOD TO BE THE CHAMP!

liSuPerManil: Good



GM Porky: How do you find the setup of this super crew league?

oPulsaRo:This tourney coincided with the Songkran festival in Thailand.
So we didn’t have much time to practice, but we have played together for
a long time. This makes it easier to play together and communicate.

H0PIA: Our Setup is Usual ISO but we running different position this time
we running SG, PG, PF instead of PF, PF, PG and im glad it worked out well.

KKKTHXBAI:The setup is just fine, but i think the time between the
matches are too far away.

DBLL: It was good, I feel like it's a nice system to use; the round robin idea
was pretty cool (although the whole week before it was almost useless).
 

GM Swift: In which stage of the tournament did you guys enjoy the most?
Can you share some experiences about it? 


iRuby:Group stage.

H0PIA: I enjoyed every moment we go against in every stage.
but what i enjoyed the most is our comeback in finals it was epic ending
with kobe shadow steal then DBLL with the clutch dive to seal the game.

KKKTHXBAI:When dudi got 2 avoid blocks in finals and i got 2 steals, Kappa.

KobeBryant: I have to say the team against Force.
After LONG hours & hours of practice with Shambeid,focusing
on blocking PF’s every move in the book. After going 2-0 against Force,
that hard work just paid off! Everyone in the dUP, I mean everyone was
absolute HYPE!! We use that energy and carried that momentum onto
the next round.

oPulsaRo:Group stage I think. Because we played without pressure.
It gives us a fun and exciting experience.


DBLL: Has to be after the tournament ended and to see crew chat and
the megaphones go crazy. I'm used to a bitter, disappointing defeat in
tourneys; I could only have imagined anything like that.
Also being greeted by so many people I played vs afterwards
with "sup champ" is pretty special.

liSuPerManil:Final stage.


GM Winter: Which crew do you think gave you the most memorable
match up in this tournament and why? 


DBLL:Definitely gotta be Qnmlgb iiiiiiii A in the finals, being down 0-2.
After that I told my team the exact way we will defend from that point and
what switches to make or not make. I made a direct promise to them that
we would not lose again. Got off to a 4-9 start in game 3
(with them having ball start of 2nd half), then it was time to turn up.

oPulsaRo:Wings and TheHeart. Wings were so strong and I thought
they would be the champions of this tourney but we beat them.
Also TheHeart because it was the final match.


KKKTHXBAI: Expect us, cuz we went on fire in that match.

H0PIA: Our Finals Match Againts QNMLGB IIIII (A) no doubt because
they have a strong defense, good chemistry , great IQ and one of the
best dasher team i've seen besides PA Team.

iRuby:Final match with TheHeart because they were so strong
and hard to beat.

KobeBryant: The Finals game against the QNM.
After being down 0-2, our backs against to the wall.
I told to my teammates, how much do you want it? Dig.
This is a turtle race. Np Ez Win. Next question...

liSuPerManil:TheHeart because it was the final match and we won.

GM Duke: Please describe your crew's everyday activities during 
off tournament season.


KobeBryant:Practice. Practice. Practice. I know it’s boring, but I spend 
so much time practice than we do in a real game.
Special Thanks to SoldierKing for patiently training with me.
You must practice if you wants to be the best.

H0PIA: We Practice To Build Chemistry & Focus To Make Sure
That We Are Prepared For The Next Tournament.

oPulsaRo:Travel with my family and friends.

DBLL::Get better, and prepare for the next one.

iRuby: Drinking and drunk all day. Eiei

KKKTHXBAI: Chill, n casually play some games.

liSuPerManil:Drink, Drunk, Dance
 


GM Lucy: Can you point out some of your crew’s weak points and
how did you guys overcome it?


DBLLMe, Kobe, and H0PIA didn't play with each other much prior tourney
so there was a lack of chemistry. On top of that H0PIA could only show up
during 2 series so we picked the top 16 round robin games and the finals.
It was also important everyone trusted me and bought in. We know what to
do on offense, but trusting me to guard alley play/PF manual dunk and not
wanting to switch to get H0PIA inside was crucial. There's a lot we had to
overcome. 2 SPC team. Being down in finals with alot of Qnmlgb players
laughing at us in megaphones, and all the 3-0 predictions (not just by them).
Too many turnovers by me. My potential GW layup being blocked in game 2.
No iso team ever winning 32-team tournament (unless you count very first one).
I could go on forever.


KobeBryant:Scheduling. We are so bad at finding time to team up together.
Especially, when our bigs live on the West side and I live on the East side.
I’m just fortunate enough to have teammate like DBLL, we have chemistry
from the start. I think practice helps to overcome and make up for all the time
loss of not teaming together.


H0PIA: I think some of our weak point is we dont have enough chemistry
& miscommunication because we rarely practice due to my work and shift
but then we manage to overcome on that 0-2 deficit againts QNMLGB IIIII (A)
we step up big time & play our very best, we discuss & correcting our mistakes
game after game.

oPulsaRo: I don’t know I just play for fun. Maybe we "bod" (a lot of miss shot) haha

iRuby: Rebound! we got a high ping.

liSuPerManil:We have 2 noob PF.

KKKTHXBAI:Not really much weak points to be honest, we just clumsy.


GM Trifecta: What do you think was your crew's edge among other
tournament participants?


H0PIA:  I think we don't have any edge among other participants because
most of them are really tough to beat its just we trust each other as a team
and believing that we can compete againts tough team. 

KKKTHXBAI:Experience,mechanics,skills.

oPulsaRo: I think there is many good teams in Asia server.
Every team has a chance to win tourney and this tourney we just were lucky

DBLL: I'm sure most of the teams entered were hungry for their first tourney
win too, but we were completely starving for it. I was ready to do whatever it
takes, even defending ArcherW 1v1. I'm glad it didn't have to come down to
that though.

iRuby:  We were just lucky

KobeBryant::We are the team with the most heart. We communicate 24/7.
No one wants to win the tournament more than dUP. Everyday,
all we think or talk about in dUP, is to win a Tournament. 

liSuPerManil:We have good PG.


GM Nutmeg:Do you have any role models in the game in terms
of play style, discipline etc.?


DBLL: No role models, I just focus on myself for the most part.
But I like Kobe's defense and heart. H0PIA's great help defense/rebounding.
I like SK's commitment. I like Valioa's dedicationon defense. 
I like StyleZ's iso IQ. And PA/Assists' knowledge + experience.

oPulsaRo: Yes, we focused on defense and on offence
we play isolation gave PG main attack.

KobeBryant: Obviously, it’s Kobe Bryant.
He is my biggest role model/inspiration On & Off FS2. I try so hard to live
up to his name, by following the Black Mamba’s mentality discipline.

iRuby:  Like pulsar said.

H0PIA: Rebound, Defending The Paint, Perimeter And Helping My
Team To Defend Dash, Pillar,Swing ISO Style Etc., & A Corner 3's

KKKTHXBAI:Bruh.

liSuPerManil:ISO.


GM Dime: Who inspires you in playing FreeStyle 2?

KKKTHXBAI:Myself x) and my buddies in FS2

oPulsaRo:Liu because she's so cute ><

iRuby:Nothing, I just play for fun.
