Ryze: No easy shortcuts

posted by Jaywalker, 1 year ago

As the support player for dk Quantic Gaming, Christoffer 'Ryze' Winther has played remarkably with heroes such as Enchantress and Vengeful Spirit. In an interview with It's Gosu, Ryze talks about his desire to defeat ua Na'Vi, the current state of Quantic and more. Below is an excerpt of the interview:


So you want to defeat Na'Vi, as a revenge for the Defense or personal hate?

Everyone wants to beat Na`Vi. Puppey proved to me at ESWC 2011 that unless you have high discipline against his Enigma, he'll get his blackhole off for full duration. His play is smart and systematic. This is why I want to beat him. ArsArt plays the same role that I do and he seems to be a friendly person. His ganking and map position is effective and always on spot. This is why I want to beat him. It's not hate. It's desire to beat the best.

Do you feel there is a lot of room for improvement in your own gameplay as well as your teams coordination together?


Room? It could be a hotel! [Laughs] Every team is making mistakes all the time and the team that can abuse their opponents mistakes the most, wins.

So you agree with Artstyle when he said that the only reason teams win at the moment, is because of the mistakes made by their opponents?

Every game is won by your opponents mistakes. Chess, SC2, DotA, football. If it wasn't because of your opponents mistakes but rather your own perfect play, would it be a game? Taking advantage of your opponents mistakes is exactly what good play is. So yes, I agree. It has always been like this and it will always be like this. You can't perfectly Defend the Ancients!

Puppey said in an interview after the Defense, that your team lately understood the strength of full force fights. Do you want to comment on this, or clarify it for players who want to break into the competitive scene with their team?

Na`Vi and DK both take advantage of the same aspect of the game. This is what makes them so effective in their playstyle. We've started incorporating it into our game. This is what Na`Vi didn't expect of us going into the finals of the Defense. I won't go into details about this. If you want to break into the competitive scene, you need a stable team and practice against good teams and follow/counter the recent trends. Hard work. No easy shortcuts.

He just gotta have prepared a few answer. "Room? It could be a hotel!" and "You can't perfectly Defend the Ancients!" sounds way too good ^^
