Welcome back Rameka, thanks for your time.  How have things been with your team and yourself since the last tournament? 
Things have been good. Didn't play much DotA collectively over summer but we are slowly getting back into the swing of things.

As last tournament, you are one of the first interstate teams to sign up.  What keeps you coming back?

 We travel down to Canberra with 3 car loads of friends so its guaranteed a memorable weekend regardless of the result.

Field trips with Omega Squadron and their entourage

Last interview we talked about the strength of Canberra teams and as fate would have it, you were sent back to Sydney by BoysBoys.   What happened on that day?
They were the better team, we gambled on a "all-in strategy" which didn't work out. We didn't have the best showing last Canberra tournament due to some of us being a "tad" hungover but we definitely enjoyed ourselves.


Will there be any repeat this time around or will you go pound for pound and go further?Hoping to do better this time around of course. The good thing about having the tournament on Saturday, which is the same day we travel to Canberra, is that we won't be intoxicated (hopefully).

The probable outcome of this trip

Apart from BoysBoys, any teams this time around that you're familiar with from Canberra?
I don't think so but in saying that i have poor memory.

We know your team likes to party and that probably contributed to a weaker showing.  Is the team still the same or have you gone through some changes?
Same team, same roster and same pack of friends coming down to support us aka drink.

You are not solely here for the tournament, so what else is in store from this sleepy city?
We are staying at the local hostel with 15 friends for the long weekend and plan on spending it out and about around Canberra.

Is there anything further that you’d like to add?
Shoutout to Kogarah net cafe, Team Ez and Pewpew. All the best to everyone!
