We sat down with DeadFox to talk about their success hence far alongside his expectations going ahead in FACEIT's London Major.


Taking a step again from essential AWPing upon woxic’s addition in past due 2017, DeadFox’s position in HellRaisers replaced dramatically. After one other addition inside the youthful Jordanian star ISSAA, the group blossomed taking a win at Bet.net masters and had a stable moment location end at DreamHack Tours.

HellRaisers’ vast effects had been short-lived though, attending few notable tournaments inside the coming months earlier than the avid gamers break. Plagued by visa issues, DreamHack Stockholm was much no longer up to type to the global blend with many being skeptical in their type getting into the FACEIT London Major. Battling by means of the New Legends degree with a 3-2 record, HellRaisers have placed a thorn in such skepticism and we sat down with DeadFox to discover their success hence far alongside his expectations going ahead inside the tournament.

Coming into the Major few of us would have predicted HellRaisers making the ideal eight, what was your preparation like getting into the occasion and did you anticipate to make it this far?

To be honest, I anticipated such, probably ISSAA and woxic didn't anticipate it so beautiful a bit but I felt like we would make it simply due to the fact we've nice particular person avid gamers and if we performed our game, it's miles going to go well. We ready properly for the Major; we had Stockholm earlier than and we went there to lovely beautiful a bit prepare and play together.

What does Johnta upload to HellRaisers as a coach?

Johnta brings format to HellRaisers comparable to teamwork and he tends to focus extra on our opponents. For example, say we're gambling an official and ANGE1’s plan isn't operating then Johnta is the guy who tells us learn the way to adjust. He systems the team, saying do this setup and that setup while ANGE1 is extra deciding regardless of even if woxic ought to choose proper the following or choose here.

Had the training rule switch by no means been implemented, would Johnta be calling for the team?

Yes I assume so, I assume Johnta would make a actually nice In Game Leader.

ISSAA has performed a tremendous occasion so far, what do you assume result in his particular person successes in London?

He performs 24/7, I don’t even understand how he's gambling so much, once you watch him he simply sitting and killing bots or deathmatching or something. He has such enormous effect and his purpose is insane.

As a group who're heavy underdogs do you assume this a sure or unfavorable for you?

We use the underdog challenge inside the sense that we ought to no longer be a group that’s afraid to do something, but that our opponents ought to be afraid simply due to the fact they don't understand what we're doing. Maybe these days they understand a little, but earlier than then opponents didn't understand what to do towards us. Until these days we had been a lovely aggressive group and though we're nonetheless aggressive, we're now extra structured.

From the backyard the belief is that HellRaisers is constructed round ISSAA and woxic, inside the group do of us assume alongside those lines?

Sometimes it's my process to go in and get them [ISSAA and woxic] news or permit them commerce me so that they kill extra or clutch later inside the round. They are actually nice at capturing and in many instances I don’t understand what they're doing. Woxic together with his excessive sensitivity is sort of a helicopter with an AWP.

For woxic, it relies at the map, for example, on Train he can peek the position he likes. Sometimes woxic will call, ‘I desire to peek this or that spot,’ but in many instances ANGE1 will inform him what to do or that he ought to no longer do something.

Our opponents can't be ready for ISSAA and woxic, in many instances they simply exit and kill three and I assume to myself, “okay we've won the round, thanks ISSAA and woxic”. We aid them to make those strikes and commonly they do no matter they desire and in the occasion that they make errors then we talk about about it after the match, saying you shouldn’ t do that or do that.

Is there ever any stress whilst ANGE1 is criticising ISSAA or woxic after the games, probably simply due to the fact they're youthful and higher avid gamers statistically?

Sometimes we've factors like these, for example, if woxic does anything mistaken after which after the game, ANGE1 tells him that it was no longer the proper transfer woxic might maintain preventing and say that it was the proper move. They have those type of arguments beautiful lovely a bit actually.

Earlier inside the yr HellRaisers had a few vast effects comparable to moment at DH Tours and profitable the Bets.net masters but since you've struggled to get identical placings, why do you assume this is?

We had been a beautiful new group from whilst ISSAA and woxic got here in, so we wanted to switch up a few roles. For example, from then on I was no longer the permanent AWPer and I wanted to read beautiful a bit of latest things, so I assume as a group we simply wanted extra time gambling together. Also, ISSAA and woxic got here primarily from FPL so they didn't have that beautiful a bit trip gambling inside a team.

In the quarterfinals you're gambling Liquid who've been in impressive type throughout the tournament, what do you assume of Liquid’s play and out of your preparation do you assume they have weak factors that will be exploited?

I assume they have weak points. We watched their demos earlier than our sport towards them [during the brand new legends stage] and spotted beautiful a bit of weak factors but we didn't abuse them properly. We tried to make use of them but we simply didn’t play our game, that's why I assume we misplaced towards them, no longer simply due to the fact they're so beautiful a bit better. I actually sense like we will win towards them in a Bo3, we simply must abuse their weak points.
