Eugene "karzheka" Petrishin shared his thoughts about the winners of the Six Invitational 2020 regional qualifiers.





— Share your opinion about the Six Invitational 2020 qualifiers winners. Did any of the results turn out to be unexpected for you, or was everything quite predictable?

— Initially, I bet on the Pro League newcomers (BDS Esport and forZe) from Europe; Spacestation Gaming from America, but wasn't sure about Latin America. As a result, the predictions were successful, but the Tier-3 teams from Europe, who beat the Tier-1 teams in qualifiers, surprised me.





— Only Asian qualifiers left. Which of the teams can you name a favorite in this region?

— I can’t make a specific prediction, but I bet on Fnatic. The team has strengthened its roster: MentalistC is a strong player. I think Fnatic has great chances.





— Share your opinion about the direct invite at the Six Invitational 2020. How fair is it? Shouldn't the organizers start the invitation to the tournament with direct invite, and not keep the name of the potential participant until the last moment?

— As for the invite, I can’t say for sure: so many men, so many opinions. But, as it seems to me, the team that won the last Six Invitational should automatically receive a spot at the next World Cup, and not the Major (of course, the roster should be consisted at least with 3 WC champions). It seems to me that it will be the fair decision.

And yes, if there is an invite, then you need to announce it in advance so that it doesn’t turn out that you specially train 3-4 times a week against a team that didn’t get to the tournament, but in the end she will receive an invite.





— If you would give out direct invitations, then to whom would you give an invite and why?

— In the current situation, I would give the spot to someone from the APAC region. Then it would be beautiful: out of 16 teams in the tournament, 4 teams each represent their region. But, as I said earlier, if it were my will, I would remove this system and simply give the spot to the winner of the past Six Invitational.
