The SK Heroes team has been boot camping the past few days in order to prepare better for the upcoming matches. When asked about how things are going,

James 'Bakery' Baker had this to say:

"We've been bootcamping in the SK office, which is actually great preparation. It was our first time meeting as a team, which was a bit weird at first, but once we started practicing together it just all started coming together. We've been doing everything as a team, like going out to eat, or buying things from the store.

As for my expectations, my expectations are to win, but I know it won't be easy. Team Liquid look incredibly strong right now, Gamers2 are monstrous laners, and Fnatic have been bootcamping hard in their new gaming house. I'm expecting some great series!"

We are looking forward to see how the team will perform in their first LAN event and we hope so are you! Catch all of the action live April 25-26th on the PGL Twitch Channel. The games will be casted by Thomas “Khaldor” Kilian along with Christopher “Tetcher” Ivermee.
