BLU also took a moment to sit down with Vonethil from team Dopplers Effect to talk about the Opening Cup and his expectations for upcoming GW2 tournaments.





BLU: Hi Vonethil, please introduce yourself and your team. How long have you been playing together? Is there anyone in particular you would like to thank for his performance in the Opening Cup?



Vonethil: Hello, I am Vonethil from Doppler's Effect. We started playing together under Doppler's Effect in the beginning of August this year. Right now our team consists of me as our Guardian, our thief Ningyou, KanScout our Ranger, Forsaker who is playing Necromancer mostly, and Mouby who is playing Warrior at the moment, but he was our Engineer at the start which is his main.



We would actually like to thank the ESL admins for putting together this awesome tournament!



BLU: You are up against Team Pugging in the LB Finals. Did you expect to come this far? Which team was your toughest opponent? How was the overall skill level? Are you prepared for your upcoming match? Do you expect to win?



Vonethil: We are looking forward to play Team Pugging and I hope this match will be as entertaining as possible to watch. We were not sure how far we would go because we had a lot of skilled teams in our bracket, but I am satisfied with our performance so far.



Who Gets Carried Hard was clearly the toughest opponent, they really managed to read our playstyle and outmaneuver us, but I hope we will be able to play them a second time in the finals.



Unfortunately we have not been able to practice during the last few days but we hope there will be no complications due to this.



BLU: Do you like the current meta? What should be changed in sPvP?



Vonethil Tough question. I know many people have different opinions regarding this but I would like to say that I enjoy playing a game where I have to adapt to the current meta, I try to see it as a challenge instead of an obstacle.



I do not feel that Structured Player vs. Player is in deep need of any major changes. Maybe ArenaNet could try to balance the maps a bit, but it works perfectly fine in the meantime.



BLU: What do you think about the tournament? What was good, what was bad? Do you enjoy it?



Vonethil:The tournament was, and is, really exciting. I love the fact that it is Double-elimination tournament. It sort of takes the pressure off and allows you to have a second chance to come back into the tournament.



The best part was facing Team Curse, we knew they were a strong team, and to be honest, we were not completely sure we would be able to beat them.



BLU: Will you attend upcoming ESL Events / Cups?



Vonethil: We will most likely participate in the upcoming ESL tournaments. Hopefully we will be able to experience an offline event in the near future.



BLU: Thank you for taking some time to answer my questions. Anything you want to say to the community?



Vonethil: I hope we'll be able to give you guys a good show on Sunday. May the best team win!

The showdown of the two remaining teams will take place right after the LB final around 21:00 CEST!



As common for a Double Elimination tournament the winner’s bracket champion needs to beat the loser’s bracket champion once to win the tournament, the loser’s bracket champion must win twice. So the LB champion needs to win two BO3 matches while the WB champion needs to win one BO3.



We wish you a good show and good luck to both teams and we hope you enjoyed the tournament so far. Feel free to leave feedback as news comment or via support. We also suggest to keep an eye on upcoming announcement since this is just the beginning of the Guild Wars 2 section.
