After lifting the StarSeries Fall trophy in Barcelona, Vitality star Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut reflected on the run in an HLTV interview.
On the MVP
"Feels good to have this MVP, like you said, 33rd... I think for this, it's not only me, I think the team played well."
On the trophy drought
"It's been three months. It's crazy to say it's been a while for us to win a trophy, but we're happy for that."
On the Porto talk
"After the last tournament in Porto, we had a talk individually with almost everyone... I think it released a lot of things, a lot of stress."
On the Major
"Our main focus is the Major, so if we can be more confident, more ready for that, doesn't matter if it's EPL, Bucharest or... we're here to win, we're here to improve every day."
