sycrone: "I know we didn't live up to expectations this year"

sycrone, who is the head coach of Mouz, shared his thoughts on the team's latest results. During a conversation with representatives of the Fragster portal, the 26-year-old Danish specialist summed up the results of the first half of the 2022 season, and also expressed hope for an improvement in the results of MOUZ.

Our results at the beginning of the year are disappointing, especially the result at the RMR tournament, where we failed to show our best game. It would be nice to go to the playoffs of those events where we took part. However, we got better with every match. Lack of success at the beginning of the year will not lead us astray. We are going to win. I think now the team is in a better position than at the start of 2022.

For us, as a German organization, it is very important to succeed in Cologne, for the players, for the fans, for Germany. Also, we'd like to break the curse of the K - we've never made the playoffs in a tournament held at a location that begins with the letter "K". Krakow, Katowice or Cologne. This time we want to break this curse in Cologne.

I want us to be in Rio in November. I think it will be the biggest Major in the history of our discipline. Not only because of the participants and the competitive part, but also because of the Brazilian fans and their love for eSports. It will be the biggest major in history and I want us to be there. I think we need to be there to show that we have changed and succeeded.

As part of the conversation, the MOUZ coach also spoke about the problems in the team with communication in English.

The biggest problem for us was communication. Obviously English is kind of a common language for these teams with players from different places, but not everyone speaks English at the same level. So, one of the first things we did when I took over the team was work on developing code names for the default things in the game. Thus, we had a set of words that we could say to communicate what we wanted to do. And if the players didn't speak English as well as some of the other players, I felt it was important to encourage them to be louder during practice to give them more confidence.

I would ask our fans to trust the process. I know we didn't live up to expectations this year. At the same time, I sincerely think that we are building something really successful here. I ask the fans to continue to support us and it will pay off in the end.

Recall that sycrone headed MOUZ at the beginning of 2022, having moved from the club's academy. For six months, the 26-year-old Danish specialist helped the team take second place in the Global Esports Tour Dubai 2022.

The next championship for the European team will be Intel Extreme Masters XVII - Cologne, where MOUZ will start playing from the Play-In stage, meeting with paiN Gaming.

The current MOUZ CS:GO roster is as follows:

• frozen
• Bymas
• dexter
• torzsi
