HexT: "I think we're going to be really good at Dallas"
NRG's campaign at the recent Fragadelphia x LVL UP EXPO Vegas was cut short in the semifinals after a nailbiter loss to Ninjas in Pyjamas, who went on to win the event following a comfortable victory over Sharks.
Dust2.us' Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey "Mnmzzz" Moore caught up with NRG's rifler Jadan "HexT" Postma for a quick interview after their loss to NIP to discuss that game, how they are feeling heading to IEM Dallas next month, and his thoughts on playing at the BLAST.tv Austin Major in June.
The full interview can be found below on YouTube, with key snippets underneath.
The game against NIP went to triple overtime, with a lot of back and forth. It seemed like you guys had the momentum heading into that third overtime, but ultimately gave it away. What went wrong in OT #3?
We don't really have much experience in LAN games where it goes to triple OT. So, I think our ideas weren't as crisp as they would be in a regulation game on a regular LAN game, or even online.
So, I think we just have to review it and try to figure out ways to not let that happen.
You, of course, are going to be heading to IEM Dallas soon. So, this was your most recent LAN before heading to Dallas. How's the team feeling ahead of Dallas? Do you feel like you're in a good position for Dallas?
We have a few weeks of practice, so we're going to figure out some things about that and the qualifiers. As long as we practice well and do what we should, I think we're going to be really good at Dallas.
It's now been four months since br0 joined the team. How is his integration into the lineup going? Do you think he's been a strong overall addition to the squad?
I think he's been really good. He has a lot of ideas, which is good. And he has a really high energy, which is what we need because me and him are really the [only] high energetic people on the team. I think that gets you through a lot of games.
Finally, heading into the Major in a couple of months. This is the first Major for you since Evil Geniuses, and the first major for jeorge, and we're going to see oSee and nitr0 head back to the Major. Are you excited? This is the first NA Major for you, of course.
I'm actually really excited to see how the fans are in NA because the last major was seven years ago in Boston. So, I'm really excited to see how it was and how it is.
