"I'm glad that my team didn't struggle under the pressure," Aleksandr "KaiR0N-" Anashkin said to HLTV after securing a second win in Bucharest. "Of course everyone was watching the games, the other teams that are about to qualify that are playing.
We didn't focus that much on that, we focused more on our game." For KaiR0N- personally, attendance at the Major represents the fulfilment of a career-long dream. "I've been trying for many years, many teams.
I failed way too many times just to not enjoy it. This is just a dream for me to play there." You can listen to the interview here . Tell me a little bit about that series, it seemed pretty straightforward for your team.
We won the pistol, then we got the conversion. They had the force buy on 1-0, so yeah, we got the conversion.
It was a 3-0 start for us, and on 3-0, we got a couple of opening kills, so we felt like we could steamroll the game and convert that to victory.
Second map, I honestly don't remember what exactly happened, but we won, and I'm happy with that.
