pashaBiceps comments on Virtus.pro reaching PGL Major Krakow 2017 quarter finals

Virtus.pro have made it to PGL Major Krakow 2017 quarter-finals with a 3-2 record, falling short to North earlier today on Mirage before taking down Cloud9 in the deciding match 16-10 on Train.

Jarosław “pashaBiceps” Jarząbkowski did a quick interview on HLTV about the Poles making playoffs, and getting to play in front of the home crowd again after disappointing to do so at IEM Katowice.

His First comment was about the match with North :

“It was very close, Snax was reading them very well, he told us what they were going to do as CT, what they’re going to do as T, so we knew everything against them. It wasn’t like Snax did bad calls, it was like our mistakes, each player made big mistakes. So it was a very close game, a few rounds, especially the last three rounds, it was like the biggest shit ever.

We have the advantage, but we play like silvers, because we have a bomb planted, 5v5, and we don’t push CT, we don’t push Z, we don’t push connector, it’s like our shoes have 100 kg weights on them. We needed to do something on the map, but we stayed and waited for kills. This is a good lesson for the future.”

And then he talked about winning against Cloud9 :

“We are in playoffs. Being legends is something special, because right now, in these times, going to the Major, playing online, Minors, it is so, so shit. It is a waste of time, preparing for enemies, but right now we have clean heads, to prepare for quarter-finals. And now we have BO3, because in BO1 right now, we are shit. But in the BO3 we have an advantage, I hope so.”

His final comment was about playing again in front of a home crowd after IEM Katowice :

“A lot of people are probably coming because of Virtus.pro, we’re feeling this beautiful moment like in 2014. We play in the biggest arenas, in the biggest stages, and this will be the biggest arena and I hope a lot of people are coming and cheer for Virtus.pro.”
