nafany Reflects on 1win's Journey to Playoffs: "It's Like a Dream"

1win has successfully advanced to the playoffs of the Esports World Cup open qualifier, with only three matches separating them from a spot at the main event. The road ahead will be challenging, as they face Liquid in their first match, with formidable opponents like FOKUS, 100 Thieves, and BC.Game potentially awaiting them in later rounds.

Vladislav "nafany" Gorshkov shared his thoughts on the team's chances, acknowledging the need for improvement in their performance. He noted that while they have the ability to compete with top teams, inconsistencies can lead to unexpected losses. "On certain levels, we are making a lot of mistakes, and it really depends on how we will play tomorrow," he remarked.

Despite the challenges, nafany expressed satisfaction with the current roster, especially after a difficult period following his departure from Cloud9. He emphasized the team's long-standing desire to work together and expressed joy at how things have progressed, calling it "like a dream."

Reflecting on their recent matches, nafany acknowledged that the team was not overly excited about their previous win, citing a lack of enthusiasm due to their performance on the second map. He admitted that crucial individual mistakes had cost them important rounds, leading to a shaky feeling within the team.

He also discussed the recent formation of the team, highlighting the timely arrival of players like fame and BELCHONOKK. The team had to navigate various organizational challenges, but ultimately, they were able to come together and start practicing, which contributed to their current success.
