Thoughts on... The Warband Native League Featuring Einar |
Q | Since the Warband Winter Cup you've made quite a few adjustments to your roster, especially the Russian trio ReD WaR, BlackDevil and Kazupa stand out. So far you are unbeaten in Division B, how do you feel about your team and where you think you can still improve? | ||||
A | In my opinion, we have a pretty strong team. All of our cavalry players are Polish, which gives them an edge in terms of coordination and communication. Also, I'm sure we have the best infantry players out of all the teams in Division B. We have proven that in our last match, where I was top scoring for example. Our archers, ReD WaR, Kazupa and Thorin, are shooting incredibly well at the moment, that is all we can ask of them. I think we can still improve on maps, and iron out stupid mistakes that we still make from time to time. | ||||
Q | In his interview, veteran Warhammer called you "wolves that talk a lot, but still have a long way ahead of them". What is your response to that? Do you think his opinion is justified? How is your team's relations to the Polish scene in general? | ||||
A | On a personal level, Warhammer is a funny guy. But in my opinion he is not the right person to give us advise. Looking at his past teams, he never was more than a meatshield for his teams. Of course he may be more experienced as a player, but that doesn't mean he is better than us. Last week, we had our chance to prove it and we did, we beat them. Speaking of that match, it was very interessting. It's very rare to see a comeback like we had, winning the second map without losing a single round. I think, soon we will be well known for our comebacks. During the Puchar Polski 2018 we managed to make a couple comeback happen in important matches, too. Generally we are not liked by the Polish Nations Cup players, but we respect them we don't question their skill. But in our opinion, our small community could use some more drama! | ||||
Q | Your chances for making it to the promotions matches in Week 5 are extremely high, which teams from Division A would you like to play in your Promotion match? And given you will win your promotion match, who do you expect to do in Division A? | ||||
A | We hope so, from what it looks like at the moment, it is very likely we will be playing FTW. We'd like that, I think we have pretty good chances against them. If we manage to beat them, I think we can also do well against tams like Knights of Malta and ToiBois. Matches against them would be very interessting for sure. | ||||
Q | The tournament has been going on for three weeks now, what is your opinion regarding the tournament format and the return to 8v8? | ||||
A | I think both formats work. 8v8 is the best choice for the WNL, for single elimination tournaments 6v6 is alright. |
