You have been considered one of the best CS:S teams in Europe for a long time, how, in your opinion, could it happen that in the last few months the results were quite disappointing? What happened?
We have to go back to Assembly 2006 for this one. After we beat adastra in the finals gRiLLi went thru some difficult time irl and wasn't able to play with us anymore. After that the roster changed a bit, and we mostly were able to keep it at the same level, but we weren't improving at all. deemi went inactive and we had to get a new player, after that I went inactive due to university exams, they broughtin gRiLLi, but aNgeldust went inactive and at that time cadre blew up. None of the roster changes really worked for us, since to our playing style our tactical mastermind gRiLLi was too big of a corner stone.
Why did your squad go inactive for a few months?
We were building up a new, solid lineup and trying out different players at that time. We didn't want to go public with a lineup that we weren't 100% confident in. Mostly the lineup worked itself up, since all of us are really good friends irl, having known each other for many years already (some even 13 years), having played football together. Chemistry is there, skill is there, will and motivation to work is there and we all thrive to be the best of the best.

Which Lan did you enjoy the most this season ?
I'd say shgOpen'07 since I was inactive at the time when cadre was at LAN79. It was so great to meet new and old friends again face to face, since it had most of the top teams in it and Denmark overall was a nice and cozy country to be in.
Which opponent impressed you the most this season ?
fnatic. After hammering them out of the competition at shgOpen placing them at 9-12. they just kept rising back up taking 1. place at different LANs. That's showing dedication, heart and improvement. Also adastra has impressed me since they've changed their lineup every once in a while and still maintaining top form. Class players.

If you have to choose Insignia Cadre best match this season , which one you will choose ?
Hard to say, must be some of our trademark comeback matches when we're getting blown apart and after gaining the momentum, never giving it back and taking the exciting and nerveracking match home. Gotta love those. Spectators love them also. Managers too if they're still breathing :D. I think we work the best when we're cornered and pushed since our finnish heritage 'sisu' comes more into play that way and hey, who wants to lose?
