PO: We're here at the EsportsArena Agents Rising Tournament with Cloud9's Surefour, who's just won the Tourney and the prize for best individual Play of the Game! Surefour, let's start out with a more involved question and then we'll move into some easier ones. When you and your team were still under the name "GoogleMe", what was it like balancing team practice, acquiring sponsors, vetting contract offers from organizations? What was a day in the life like for you guys?

SF: Well, Reaver was still working and he had a night shift-type job, so we always had to wait until he got off and we would have to scrim late at night. Now, he's no longer working there now so we have a lot more time to scrim. We weren't really actively seeking out sponsors, we were more waiting to see who came to us first. We ended up getting with Cloud9 because Danan (Cloud9's General Manager for their Overwatch team) followed me on Twitter and I asked him if he was interested in a team and it went from there.

PO: Building off that -- how has your day-to-day changed since joining Cloud9?



SF: The routine stayed pretty much the same after we got sponsored. We just got more...basically more of a "now we have to win all the time" mentality.

PO: The sick sponsor gear didn't help too much?

SF: Oh the gear definitely helps. I mean we were comfortable with the stuff we had before, but we also adapted to our new sponsored gear pretty quickly as well -- I mean we've all been repping it and using it here.

PO: The results certainly speak for themselves! Let's move in to some less "serious" topics now: if you could pick one Hero and one ability of that Hero to change, in an attempt to help Balance the Meta, what ability would you choose and how would you change it?
