I sat down with

'Sneyking' right after the matches and asked him a few questions.

You just won one of the most prestigious tournament series in Heroes of Newerth, the Gamereplays.org Invitational with a clean 3-0 against Team-Infused and it just so happens to be your first major tournament victory. How does it feel?

"Feels amazing man, it took a lot of hard work to pull this off. A special thanks goes out to our ringers, without their support this would actually never happen."

Which brings me to the next question. Your team seems to consist of 3 core members: Yourself, Sender and waytosexy and then you fill the remaining two slots with ringers. Do you feel that maybe people will not credit your play enough and think that the ringers had more to do with the success than the core members did, which in case of Kebap has already been discussed amongst the community? Does that bother you at all?

"Personally, it's fine with me that the community is giving more credit to the ringers than our core members, because they were indeed one of the reasons why we managed to win this tournament."

Talking about the roster, is there any signs of you guys having a stable one any time soon or will you have to use ringers for the forseeable future? Do you already have anyone in mind that you'd like to add to the lineup?

"As of now, our roster is still unstable and we are looking for suitable members. I do not have anyone in mind but I will try to recruit 1-2 players in order for us to have a stable roster."

So the Gamereplays.org Invitational is behind us, next up is the HoN Super Series and the Honcast HoNor tournament. What do you expect from those?

"I think we have a good shot at those upcoming tournaments. It all depends on the stability of our roster."

Thanks for answering the questions and congratulations on the title. Any shoutouts or anything you'd like to add?

"Shoutout to China for being our benchwarmer and warming up the bench for me. Also shoutout to Kebap for ringing for us. Thanks!"
