About a month away from competition, Aurora returned to play in Astana and IEM Dallas. Engine “Maj3r” Capille’s men took third position in the Kazakh event, but then had to go through a long journey to the United States for their opening match in the IEM Dallas.
Although the Turkish party died in its opening match against Herok, the results of the jaitalag, Arora succeeded in reaching the play office of the American event with a victory of NRG, liquid, and brave in the lower brackets.
Unfortunately for Aurora, the team will find nothing more than the quarter-finals, as the Mongols have avenged their elimination with a 2-0 victory in the Dallas Play office from PGL Astana.
Shortly after the IEM Dallas eliminated, Captain MABM 3R talked to HLTV about the team’s results, the difficulties involved in controlling teams like Vigilati and Moizon, and Aurora aims to keep Blast Dot TV Austin Major.
You can read the interview below or Listen to the spotifies.
Here with Maj3r after the IEM Dallas eliminated. Just wondering how you are feeling about the results of this program as a whole.
Overall, I think we also managed to get into the playoff this year, but after the playoff, it is disappointing for us. But, time to learn. Step by step, we will try to improve in play -off matches. We have a lot of tournaments, and especially the big. So we are going to camp before this Major and try to fix our mistakes and be more ready for the Major.
You and Fariya had just come from PGL Astana. Do you think Jaitlag and Travel played a role ahead of your rough opener?
I’ll just talk about myself, not about the team, but for myself, yes. It’s been a long time when I came to the United States. My last time was with space soldiers, as I think in Austin four or five years ago. I have a special relationship with my sleep in Europe, since I have children, I am very robotic, sleeping at eleven o’clock in the night and waking up at six o’clock in the morning. I have a special routine. Here, I think I need more time.
My sleep schedule was not right at all, and he affected himself, and if he affected himself, it also affects the team. I think it’s part of work, trying to fix it, and will be better next time. So, it was a good experience here for me, and it is very important that we include this experience before the Major, as the Major will clearly be in Austin.
We play worse than Astana, but we’re trying to fix our mistakes
The match that you sent home was against the Mongols. You beat them in Astana but didn’t like it here. What was the difference you think this time?
I think we had the opportunity to win the dust 2 with clutches. Was a major clutch in one, I and Voxic 2V1 situation when he had MP9. I think if we won this round, they do not have money and we only get the eleventh or twelfth goal. I think these are small details on Dust 2, and after that we reduced the pistol round on the T -side.
After that, it was difficult to come back, as Mongols are also a team that plays a style on being individually confidently that they really play good, more confidence, more and more. It is important to never give them this confidence, to such teams, but we have not been able to do so. We played worse than Astana, but we are going to try to fix our mistakes next time.
Since the train has been added to the pond, you guys have a very difficult record. Why do you think the train has become so bad, and is this something you will be upset with before the Major?
The first purpose is to fix the train at the boot camp. We did not camp in a long time, which is why we must fix the map pond. The train is part of the job. As you said, individually, we don’t really feel confident on this map. Even in the tournament, we change positions to try to fix things.
It is important to practice it at the boot camp and try to fix it, and other teams may see what the best is on the train, because we do not have experience individually and as a team. But, with work, everything is viable, so if we work well on the train, we will definitely fix this map.
On a good day, I think that Mongols or we are also eligible to win against the jairenable
I talked to Mazino after the game, and he said that Aurora and Mongols are 1.5, while jairenable, moose and Falcon are one step. Do you agree with this evaluation? What are you separate from these high teams?
I think they are fine in the sense that we are not doing the same results that are jaundered or pavilia. We play off every tournament, but we always stay in the final stages. This means that we lose some things to win the championship. I think it’s just about experience for them and us. It takes time to win the trophy. It is not easy to win a trophy against jaire and moisture and such teams.
On a good day, I think that even the Mongols or we are eligible to win against the jurnbal or the soul or the new. We are able to defeat them, but we are not as permanent as them. I think the key is to be as permanent as them. It is just about to improve individually and to be more permanent.
You have mentioned on the broadcast yesterday that the project is to return to Europe before Major. What is the plan for this? How long will the boot camp be and when will you return to the US?
I don’t know the project completely, but we will go back home because we are stage 3 in Major, so there is a lot of time with 14 days. If there was a stage 2, we can decide to stay like a Falcon. Boot camp l i, I’m not sure.
I think we can try to fix the jetlag here), or if we can’t do here because it is complicated here with the practice, then it may be doing in Europe and we can come here four or five days before the Major started. We will see, and we will plan that as a team and the Managing Organization will decide and we will see what is best for us.
