decerto-esports.eu grabs an interview with SK xbox CoD4 players Godlike, Tobi and manager SammyK regarding the upcoming EGL LAN this weekend.

Members of SK's xbox CoD4 team have been interviewed by decerto-esports.eu in advance of the fast approaching European Gaming League LAN. Godlike, Tobi and manager SammyK were asked about the LAN, their expectations and their feelings in light of this being the last big LAN for CoD4 with Modern Warfare 2 ready to overwhelm the scene.

Asked about the pressure of playing SK Godlike replied:

"Yeah definately, but I think it makes us play better as a team. When we were RxG, we weren't too bothered about winning or losing, but when we got picked up by huge orgs, we knew we would need to improve dramatically. I don't think we've reached our peak yet, but we will soon."

While Tobi had another perspective on the subject:

"Not really, we want to represent SK to the best we can however no one from SK has asked us to acheive anything we dont think is possible. Under RxG the pressure was huge, we had to show the Decerto world we were no longer a gb team and could hang with the big boys."

Asked about whether he is nervous about his pickups manager SammyK said:

"Not really as I have complete faith in this side and they have already proven themselves online with their records. What ever result we gain from this event makes no difference to SK as they know this is the first lan event for the team and the last for Call of Duty 4 and they should be proud of whatever result we get from this event."

The EGL will be held in Manchester on the 17th and 18th of October. SK member Godlike has won four tournaments with the biggest being the consoles.net 4v4 tournament and the second the promod tournament on the console gaming website. Tobi shares similar success. The team will be in competition this weekend hoping to leave CoD4 on a high note.
