It's GoSu had the chance to interview Dan "ViBE" Scherlong, the winner of WCS USA. In the interview, he talks about his team ROOT, WCS North America Finals, eSports the industry, and produced an amazing video for everyone!
...You recently joined ROOT Gaming this year in May. How is the new team? Have you played any team leagues under ROOT yet?
Since I joined ROOT Gaming, I have been extremely happy to be in a relaxed atmosphere with all my friends. I am really looking forward to Heart of the Swarm. That is when the entire team will be back 100%, and I can only imagine the potential the team will have then. Players such as Kiwikaki and Fayth will be playing competitively again.
I love the guys on ROOT. Our team skype chat is always full of entertaining and funny comments. I am always laughing in between my ladder games. It helps to prevent tilting. If I lose a game, and I tab out and read a hilarious comment, I feel honky donkey again.
I am looking forward to playing my first team league as a part of ROOT because I have not played a team match in a long time. Team leagues are fun!....
...With WCS North America Finals a day away, how do you feel you will do against the WCS Canada winner--Scarlett-- and the WCS Mexico winner--Major? Are there any players you think u will have trouble against?
If I get matched up against either Scarlett or Major, I think I have a good chance. I will definitely need to bring my A game. I have not played many matches vs Scarlett, but I have been practicing with Juan as the newest ROOT member. He has been beating me more than I have beaten him in our practice matches.
I am not necessarily afraid to play anyone in this tournament. There are a few people who I do think will beat me if I do not play my best. I need to make sure I keep my focus and composure....
