flash: "We are here to learn"

We caught up with Viktor "flash" Tamás Bea after one of volgare's first international experiences, where they ended up last in group A following losses to Virtus.pro and HellRaisers.

volgare are the first team to go out from ASUS ROG Winter 2015 after they lost to Virtus.pro 16-3 on de_cache before putting up ten rounds on de_mirage against HellRaisers.

Viktor "⁠flashie⁠" Tamás Bea told us about the team's experience at their first big international event, as well as their plans for the future in the short interview below:

You and your team obviously didn't have enough international experience in the past, how has it been here at ASUS ROG Winter 2015? Yeah, we didn't have a lot of experience, but we are here to reach more experience and learn something for the future. Against Virtus.pro you weren't able to do much but against HellRaisers you actually put in a lot of rounds, how would you rate your performance here?Versus Virtus.pro there were a lot of close rounds, we had a lot of afterplant situations, a lot of 4v2s and stuff like that, but we lost every single situation because of their experience I think. Their experience was too much for us. Do you think you'll get to go to other events because of qualifying for this one? Do you plan on attending other tournaments, for example Copenhagen Games, which inexperienced teams often choose?Yes, we are planning to go to Copenhagen Games and we will play every international qualifier for like Katowice. We will try to qualify there.Thanks for the interview, any last words or shoutouts?Thank you for the fans who helped us to make it here to Finland, because they gave us a lot of support.
