Support superstar Liquid Grandpkt took time to tell us his thoughts on the EU Championships。 With the knowledge of the once favorited EU team for the BlizzCon championships being out of the running， how does a team cope？

　　作为最受期待的队伍在失利之后如何看待目前的队伍？

　　You’ve been in Prague since Wednesday。 What have you been doing these past days？

　　On Wednesday we did nothing。 Thursday was media day， we took pictures， interviews and things like that。 We spent the rest of the day， playing some games and practicing。 On Friday， we played two group stage matches but not in the main arena， rather at some underground place。

　　自从上周三开始（9月30日）你们一直在布拉格，那些天过的如何？

　　答：周三我们什么都没做。周四是媒体见面日，拍照，采访之类的事情，剩余的时间玩了会游戏以及做了点练习。周五，我们进行了2轮匹配赛，但找不到场地，在地下找了个地方。

　　Sounds scary。

　　It looked like a garage， it was actually pretty cool。 *laughs*

　　听着有点可怕。

　　答：那地方就像个垃圾场，但貌似很酷。*大笑*

　　Is it better to play there where there are no fans？

　　I prefer to play in front of fans， on a stage。 You feel the pressure more， but it’s good。

　　On Friday we also made custom games with mixed teams， like one player from ROCCAT， two from Liquid，etc， and they were actually pretty good games。 It’s the first we did something like that。 I played one game with Zeratul and it was horrible。 I think Sockehates me for that。 *laughs*

　　在没有粉丝的地方训练比赛感觉会好吗？

　　答：在舞台上，我更愿意有粉丝在周围，你能感受到压力，但这是好事。

　　周五我们和观众混合了队伍进行了友谊赛，貌似我们是第一次这么做。我玩了一局泽拉图，但玩的跟屎一样。Socket估计因为这而生气呐。*大笑*

　　Do you stay connected with the other pro players outside the game？

　　We talk， yes， but there’s always the language barrier。 Gamers2 are from Poland， we’re from Spain and we usually stay in groups， speaking our language。

　　在比赛外你们和其他职业选手有联系吗？

　　答：我们有交流，但总有些语言障碍。G2他们来自波兰，我们来自西班牙，我们经常一起说我们的语言。

　　On Friday， you played Dignitas in your first match。 How did you feel going against them， considering they are one of the most popular teams in Europe right now， the newcomers that try to dethrone you from the top？

　　We knew that they were going to play Johanna/Leoric if we let them do it and we thought of a strategy to counter that。 Even though they took the early game， they made so many mistakes that once we reached level 16， the game was completely ours。

　　In the next matches， especially the one on Dragon Shire， I don’t know what we did。 We drafted poorly and played even worse。 And the last game， we were two levels ahead and somehow just decided to throw the game。 We went full yolo， we dived a keep at level 11 against level 9， they took the fight and got back into the game。

　　周五，你们和Dignitas的第一场比赛，你觉得和他们对抗怎么样，考虑到他们目前是欧洲最炙手可热的队伍之一，他们是否是一匹能把你们从顶端拉下来的黑马？

　　答：我们知悉他们非常熟悉乔汉娜/李奥瑞克，如果放给他们，他们一定会选用。但我们想了一些对抗他们的策略。即使在游戏早期，他们还是犯了如此多的错误，一旦我们达到16级，游戏就将在我们的掌握之中。

　　At that dive moment， were you thinking “we have to do that” or was it that someone suggested it and everyone followed。

　　We all thought it was a good call and if we had done it the proper way it would have worked。

　　在那个转折的时刻，你是否认为“我们必须那样做”或者是某人建议这样然后每个人都跟从了。

　　答：我们都认为这是个好的机会，如果我们能做的更好些的话，一定是有效的。

　　You were matched with not only Dignitas， but also Na`Vi and PiP in the same group。 What did you think of the seeding？

　　The first though was ”Fuck”。 But on the other hand， the two teams that make it out of the group in this case we now know it’s Na`Vi and Dignitas would probably make it to Blizzcon。 We have two chances to make it out and we thought that’s a good thing。

　　From a tournament perspective though， it’s not really good。 You want exciting semi finals and not a 3-0 stomp。 Maybe the other teams like ROCCAT can take a game or two but I don’t think so。

　　你们分的小组不单有Dignitas，也有Navi和Pip。你认为谁是种子队？

　　答：第一个的想法就是“我艹”，另一方面来说，在这次的赛事中，这两个队小组出线，我们现在知道Navi和Dignitas能进暴雪嘉年华。我们有两次机会祝贺他们。

　　从这次锦标赛的预期来说，并不是件好事，你想要一场激动人心的半决赛而不是3-0的碾压。可能其他队伍像Roccat能拿1到2分，但我并不这么认为。

　　Do you think Dignitas and Na`Vi have good chances at Blizzcon， against C9， Tempo Storm， etc？

　　Against NA teams， I think yes。 Against Chinese and Korean teams， I am not sure， maybe not。

　　你认为Dignitas和Navi在暴雪嘉年华对抗C9，TempoStorm和其他队伍有机会吗？

　　答：对抗北美队伍，我认为是肯定的。但对抗中国和韩国队伍，我不确定，可能不行。

　　Obviously you wanted to qualify to Blizzcon but was there any other motivation beyondjust competing at the biggest stage？ Facing a particular team， maybe， or seeing where the regions stand compared to each other？

　　I really wanted to play MVP Black again but today they lost to team DK and they’re not going to Blizzcon。 I actually think it’s unfair that the strongest region only gets one spot。 They should get at least two。

　　很明显你们非常渴望去暴雪嘉年华，在最大的舞台竞争是最大的愿望？去面对某只队伍，或对抗其他地区？

　　答：我真的很想在和MVPBLACK来一局比赛，但今天（10月3日）得知他们输给了DK，他们也无法去暴雪嘉年华。最强的地区却只能拿到一个名额，我认为非常的不公平。他们至少该拿2个名额。

　　Do you think the number of slots for the other regions is fair？

　　I think two for NA and two for EU is fair。 Korean also deserves two， then maybe one for China and one wildcard to fill the final slot。

　　你认为其他地区的名额是否公平？

　　答：我认为北美2个欧洲2个是公平的。韩国也应该2个，然后1个给中国，1个外卡。

　　You’ve said before that you don’t like Kharazim and that he isn’t as strong as you hoped to be。

　　Yeah， I though he was going to be the best support in the game。 He’s really good， but he’s not the best。

　　We had to play him in one game today against Dignitas and we won it。 I later spoke with Bakery who said they banned Malfurion because they thought I won’t go for Kharazim。 And when we picked him， they were like “Oh…”。

　　你之前说过你不喜欢武僧，认为他没有你期待的那么强。

　　答：是的，我认为他应该成为游戏中最强的辅助。他很不错，但不是最好的。

　　我们今天在一局和Dignitas比赛中使用了他并且赢了。我之后和Bakery，他说他们Ban掉了玛法因为他们认为我不会用武僧。但当我们选他的时候，他们都说“Oh。。。”

　　Was it a spur of the moment pick then？

　　He was the only viable support left for that situation。 I’ve played a lot of Kharazim but I can’t say I’m as good on him as I am on Uther or Rehgar。 I am not super confident with him but then again you only have to press W and everybody’s healed。 *laughs*

　　选他是因为受什么激励了吗？

　　答：因为那种阵容下他是仅有可选的辅助。我玩了很多武僧，但不不敢说玩的能和乌瑟尔或狼狗那么好。我对武僧并不太自信，但你只要按W每个人都能得到治疗。*大笑*

　　Are you excited for the Medic？

　　I think she will be an interesting support。 I would say it’s all about numbers if they are not good， the character won’t be either。

　　医生姐姐怎么样？

　　答：我认为她是个很有趣的辅助。我想说它全是数字-如果数字不好，这角色也不会好。

　　Have you played her on the PTR？

　　No， I didn’t want to let the new changes mess up my thoughts on the current version。 but I’ve seen footage of players backdooring with her and it was really fun。 And I’m excited about that as a support player， I‘ll finally being able to make plays。

　　PTR玩过她吗？

　　答：还没有。我不想让新的变化干扰我对目前版本的想法。但我已经看到队友在玩她，看上去很有意思。作为辅助，我很兴奋，我将会去玩。

　　Now that you are not going to Blizzcon， what is the future for Team Liquid in Heroes？ Maybe a team House？

　　I can continue to play full time， even though I‘m a student， because Ihaven’t to go to exams and can learn for those whenever， like whentraveling。

　　As for a team House， Team Liquidhas a team housein the Netherlands that someof us went to to bootcamp For this event。 I don‘t think a team house where ALL theplayers live would actually make us improve a lot。 You have to then live with all the players and you will get annoyed with each other faster。 So nothing like that in the close future For us。

　　现在你们去不了暴雪嘉年华，未来你们队伍的打算呢？TeamHouse？

　　答：我能继续全天候的游戏，即使我还是个学生，因为我不必去考试，无论何时都可以去学习，就像旅行。

　　至于TeamHouse，TL在新西兰有一个TeamHouse，我们中的一些人为了这个赛事会去训练营地。我不认为TeamHouse这种所有成员一起生活能实际改进我们多少。你必须和所有队员一起生活，你也会受到干扰。因此在近期我们没有什么变化。
