We asked Masaa open questions that he answered. This is the finished interview, based on Masaa's answers.

1. Introduce yourself shortly, who are you and from where are you?

They call me Petja and I’m originally from Pieksämäki.

2. How did you begin playing Overwatch and for how long have you played? What did you play before Overwatch?

When I started my studies at the South-Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences (XAMK) in 2017, most of my class mates played Overwatch. I bought the game to bond with the boys, even if I thought it was a “pointless animegame”. I began playing competitive ladder during the second season.

Before Overwatch, I used to play Counter-Strike: Source, League of Legends, ARMA 2 and 3, DayZ, Garry’s Mod, etc. I had previous tournament experience playing in CSS and LoL with a team of friends.

3. You play main support; how did you end up in the role? Who is your favorite main support hero, why?

I became a main support due to Team Gigantti. When Shaz and Biggoose left for Overwatch League, Gigantti had a spot for a new support duo. Me and Ripa were asked to trial for the flex support role, but I decided then that it would be better to pick him for the flex support and teach me to play Lucio.

My favorite hero is Lucio, mainly due to his mobility and playmaking potential, compared to other support heroes. One good boop can be enough to win an entire map.

4. How did you end up in Atlanta?

I got offers from multiple League teams after my trials. I thought Atlanta had the most promising roster and a seemingly trustworthy organization, that would care for the player’s wellbeing.

5. Tell us a little about your journey to the League. What has been your best experience on your Overwatch career? And what has been your favorite meta?

My best experience has been either the Atlanta Homestand or first 2018 season Contenders finals in Poland after grinding for so long. In Atlanta I got to see the dedication and the amount of our fans, which was amazing. In Poland it was great to meet other teams, whom against we had scrimmed and played against for the last six months. And of course sharing a cold one with them after a match.

6. You are representing Finland for the first time in the Overwatch World Cup. How do you feel about that?

I got a good feeling going into the tournament, though of course I’m a bit nervous going to play the World Cup for the first time. Especially, because I remember the World Cup being the first Overwatch tournament I watched, and I thought then “it would be so cool to get to play there” so this is kind of a dream come true. I got lots of faith in our team, especially if the current meta is the same during the World Cup.

7. What do you think about role lock being added into the game?

As a “Lucio bot”, I have to say that goats could’ve been the meta for until they close the game. But for the spectators and for ranked it’s a good addition to the game. We just have to hope that bunker won’t be meta for as long and we get new heroes to spice up the hero with time.

8. What advice would you give to future OW professionals, from Open Division, to Contenders and finally to the Overwatch League?

Good luck for the grind and don’t give up. When you put in enough effort, it will be rewarded sooner or later. The most important part is keeping a good attitude and ask for constructive critique for your own gameplay.

9. Any parting words for your fans?

Thank you for your continued support! We going to sweep the World Cup with the boys this year.
