Jeorge: "To put it simply, we played awful"

NRG's first opportunity to qualify for Stage Two at the BLAST.tv Austin Major fell by the wayside, after a disappointing and decisive loss to OG.

The NA team still has one more chance to reach next stage in the 2-2 game tomorrow, but before that happens, Jeorge "Jeorge" Endicott spoke to Dust2.us about the OG match and the team's Major run so far.

Tough loss today, especially on Nuke. What do you think went wrong?

To put it simply, we played awful. Not going to comment on anything individualistic or the actual reasons why. Just played awful.

This was your first best-of-three at this Major. Did you feel you were all prepared for the change in format?

Yeah, the best-of-one's are easier because we can narrow it down to better maps for us. I mean, we had a free pick in the best-of-three and played terrible, so it's not an excuse. OG's a good team.

How do you feel you individually have played at this Major?

I'm very proud of how I played, except in the HEROIC series. Other than that [game] I think I've had a pretty decent individual performance, but also I have to pat myself on the back for my contributions to the comms and everything on mid-rounds- on the maps we won anyway."

Some of the Complexity guys spoke of "jitters" or nervousness at their first Major. How do you feel like you're putting up with the pressure?

I'm not nervous at all here. The pressure was in the online qualification, but now that we're here, we've already completed our goals for the season.

You'll be heading into the 2-2 bracket tomorrow. Do you feel you'll be able to rally and make it to Stage Two?

For sure, we have a really good chance. We're probably going to play Lynn Vision or something, so it's definitely going to be one of the weaker teams in the stage. We definitely have a good chance to make Stage Two.
