Gabriel NEKIZ Shenato, Legacy's in-game leader, spoke to HLTV about his team's performance at the PGL Major Copenhagen Americas RMR so far, his experience taking on a leadership role, and the current state of the Brazilian CS2 scene.

Despite a shaky start, Legacy managed to pick up an important win over Nouns, keeping their RMR hopes alive. NEKIZ spoke about the difficulties of implementing his system and the team's problems with consistency.

NEKIZ spoke about the challenges of Legacy transitioning to his preferred playstyle, emphasizing the importance of establishing strong set pieces and individual roles. He acknowledges the team's previous inconsistency but believes they are finding their footing under his leadership.

NEKIZ reflects on his time in paiN and his unexpected departure from the roster, expressing his current focus on leading a successful team to a major. It also sheds light on the competitive nature of the Brazilian scene, where teams often prioritize regional dominance over global success.

NEKIZ expresses reservations about the recent shuffling of talent on the Brazilian scene, especially with teams focusing on individual star players rather than building cohesive rosters with defined roles. He believes this approach hinders long-term success.

NEKIZ acknowledges the importance of the upcoming match and stresses the need to maintain a winning mentality beyond the Vertigo appearance. He remains optimistic about their chances of reaching the Major, taking things one step at a time.
