"NiKo hit some shots, no other play would"
After the thrilling matchup, we spoke with Heroic’s Rene “TeSeS” Madsen, where we asked him how it was playing against a NiKo in top form.
- NiKo hit some shots, no other play would hit – but we were ready for that before the game. We couldn’t let that take over our focus, so I would say that we didn’t think to much about it. They all played well I think, they did a great job, TeSeS said to Pley.gg and continued to talk about what this Major debut means for him and Heroic.
- Top 4 in my first Major tournament is something I’m really proud of and there are many more to come for this team, and I can’t wait to play the next one. I know we will progress and continue to build on this foundation. I believe that someday we will be the greatest.
