Kaike "KSCERATO" Cerato of FURIA has spoken out after the team's impeccable run to qualify for the first CS2 Major, achieving a remarkable 3-0 finish without dropping a game. In a candid interview, KSCERATO addressed the community pressure and dismissed those who might seek to downplay their success.
The qualification is significant; we've been under immense community pressure. There will always be detractors ready to belittle our achievements, suggesting we only faced weak opponents. But we focus on the positive supporters who truly root for us.Kaike "KSCERATO" Cerato
Despite the scrutiny from the community, KSCERATO emphasized that the team shields itself from negativity, as such pressures are counterproductive. He acknowledged that while they are aware of the comments, they do not let them impact their performance.
We are our own biggest critics and put enough pressure on ourselves. Constructive criticism from the community can be beneficial, but we focus on doing our job and performing at our highest level.Kaike "KSCERATO" Cerato
Reflecting on the recent loss in the IEM Dallas qualifier, KSCERATO admitted it was a setback but asserted that the team quickly refocused on the RMR. He also touched on the previous poor performance at the Paris Major, noting that with the team's changes, including the addition of veteran Gabriel "FalleN" Toledo, past results do not weigh them down.
FalleN brings a wealth of experience to the team, especially in handling Major pressures. He's won two Majors and his leadership is invaluable. We're a different team now, ready to face this Major with fresh determination.Kaike "KSCERATO" Cerato
KSCERATO also shared insights into his personal journey, revealing that after a period of self-doubt post-IEM Katowice, he feels he has rediscovered his form. He credits adjustments in the team's routine and a focus on aligning tactically, technically, and socially within the group.
For KSCERATO, the unity and cohesion within FURIA are paramount, even more so than their standings.
Qualifying for the Major is important, but our unity is what truly matters. Our victory was as a team, not individuals,Kaike "KSCERATO" Cerato
As FURIA prepares for the CS2 Major, KSCERATO's reflections serve as a powerful reminder of the strength of team spirit and the importance of resilience in the face of external pressures. Their 3-0 qualification speaks volumes, not just of their in-game skills, but of their collective character and vision for success at the world stage.
