Here with have Celex with us, answering a few questions about the infamous Montreal video and his performance in Philadelphia.

Hello celex! You had a very successful match yesterday. How do you feel about it?

It feels great to eliminate Fnatic because they have been one of our biggest threats for a long time, so this is giving us a lot of confidence for today.

How was it like when your teamates said "Don't break anything, DONT BREAK ANYTHING!", after your victory?

It was actually pretty funny, we always get really excited when we play. I made sure to put my headphones down gently before I got up and celebrated. Everyone was joking saying stuff like "You probably shouldn't stand behind him, he might throw some headphones at you" But it was all in good fun lol :D

How do you feel your chances are with the tournament today?

After beating Fnatic, it really gives us a lot of momentum and I think we are going to do fine, I don't know if we are going to be able to do anything to GGE, but this time I will actually be happy with a 2nd place finish :)

What importance does this ESL tournament have for you as a pro World of Warcraft player?

It's been really great to be able to attend these events. ESL is a lot different than MLG and not in a bad way. The car show in Montreal, and the expo here in Philly, it's really cool to be able to play in these types of venues even though it is a bit loud sometimes.

Why did you have this emotional break out in Montreal?

Well, it was our 4th time to get 2nd place and I was just really frustrated because we were so close. I know it won't happen again because I know I made myself, and my team look bad. I think a lot of people understand that these tournaments aren't just a game, it's for a lot of money and pride and it would have felt really good to beat the best Euro PMR but props to them, they are an amazing team.

What are your goals for the future?

I think our main goal for now is just to get top 3 in this tournament so we can go to Germany. I really hope WoW will be very competitive come 2009, if it is, then we will be shooting for winning multiple tournaments. Hopefully we get to go to some international tournaments, would be awesome to go to Germany or China or something.
