World of Warcraft: Five with aNNa of PMS.h2o

GotFrag talks with aNNa of PMS.h2o and discusses their performance here at EM III LA.


PMS.h2o is a relatively new team to the tournament scene, so GotFrag decided to take some time to interview aNNa and get her opinion on a few things. Her team faced an extremely difficult group stage yesterday, having to playing x6tence from Spain, and both Team EG and Pandemic Blue from the United States.

Where did you meet your two team mates who're competing with you here today?

2GD the shout caster, he recommended our Druid/Priest. The other player was already in our guild and we had just been playing with him for a while already.

You faced some very experienced and difficult teams in your group today, including Team EG and Pandemic Blue. Even though you lost all three games, how do you feel you actually played against them. Was the luck not in your favor, or were you just not well prepared for this event?

First of all, we're pretty inexperienced as a team, particularly when referencing LAN play. Secondly, we only played our main setup about 2 out of 9 rounds. Versus Pandemic, we didn't play our main setup at all, same for x6tence. Versus EG, we played our main setup twice, but I think they're just an overall better RLD team. It wasn't about bad luck. In the second game versus EG, our Druids computer just tabbed out, but I don't think we would have won that game anyways.

Everyone knows hindsight is 20/20. If you could go back and replay any of the matches you played today, what would you do differently?

We would have played Pandemic a bit differently. The first two games were not good at all, but I'm not too sure what else we could have done. We did do our best, but I think the inexperience really showed through today.

With regards to WoW competitions and tournaments, how do you feel competing in a coed event? I know you played CS quite a bit, and 1.6 has a few female only tournaments, so what's your opinion on that?

It's definitely more fun to play versus guys. In all honesty though, it's pretty much the same. When I play CS, especially at the once a year event in Sweden, there are a lot more guys but they're usually better, so you get a lot more experience.

PMS.h2o is a relatively new team here, anything planned for your future? Any events that you're looking forward to?

I really don't know. The expansion is coming out, so we'll have to figure that out. There aren't really any close events that I know about, besides Montreal, so we'll just see.

Thank you very much for your time. Any shout outs or thank yous?

Yeah, I'd love to say thank you to PMS and all of our sponsors and InferoOnline as well.
