5	f0rest and kboy interviewed by Win Out by roy_chez on November 8th, 2008 at 14:23 CET

Counter-Strike superstar Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg and Business Development Manager Neil "kboy" Kirk have been interviewed by Win Out's Charlie Price.

The interview is mainly about Patrik and Neil their thoughts on the World Cyber Games 2008, such as their expectations of the winner and the loss versus SK Gaming which made fnaticMSI.CS miss the WCG 08. Price also questioned them about their thoughts on possible upsets and the state of the North American teams such as Gravitas Gaming.

Here's a small snippet:

With the WCG 2007 winners not qualifying for the finals, who do you believe has the best shot at winning WCG 2008?

Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg: It is very even now on the top level, I believe that any team can win if they’re having a good day. So it is very hard to say, but these 4 teams looks good going into this tourney – Mousesports, mTw.AMD, MYM and SK-gaming.

Neil "K’boy" Kirk: The top level tier is so close that any of the teams could get a good run and go on to win, as we have seen in the past few months on different occasions. Personally I think we should be looking for Mousesports to capitalize on their recent good run and SK-gaming returning to form to prove a point."

erhm, mousesports wasn't even attending WCG since attax won germanys wcg finals (mouz didnt attend germanys wcg qualifier tho, but that's, however, not the point)

either old i-view or bad knowledge from the two "fnatics"

Not sure when it was done, but there wasn't to much reason for them to know, as we didn't attend the CS tourney (only FIFA and WC3).

SK-Gaming is representing your nation in these World Cyber Games, and the Fnatic vs. SK rivalry is among the greatest in the history of esports. Are you cheering for your countrymen, or rooting against the team that eliminated you before the World Finals?

Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg: Since they are our rivals I rather see them doing badly, haha. And on the other hand I am rooting for e-stro to make it till the final, but that’s a long shot.

haha :D
