Q: Thanks for joining me Robin. For the people who might not know you if thats even possible, could you tell everyone a little about yourself and your history?

A: Well hey there everyone, my name is Robin Swaters I'm 18 years old and I currently study IT in Arnhem. Most of the gamers know me as robyYE. The history started back at CiC4, I played for DCC gaming back then and we beat TEK9 in groupstages and it felt great. We finished 5-8th and that was my first lan. Then I went away for a while and came back with the KC/BBashers team who placed 2nd at AEF and 1st at FOM, here I am in Dignitas after a 1 year period in Team-Coolermaster.

Q: How did your team experience the Seeding tournament and what do you feel about the outcome of it ?

A: We used it as good practice for lan, be disciplined and the only thing that didnt went right was the draw against team-impact in the groupstage. We kinda f*cked up that one. The rest went just fine.

Q: How does it feel to be the only foreigner of the team ?

A: Feels good to be the only foreigner in the team, I like to bait my teammates by not understanding stuff which I do understand. Sometimes I get abused by phantasy but that's alright.

Q: You played for big organisations like ButtonBashers, Team-Coolermaster and now for Dignitas what is the biggest difference in your opinion ?

A:The fame of the organisations, you can say with ease that Dignitas is THE organisation that dominated the CoD scene since it came out. There are not really any other differences, maybe some more sponsors and better contract deals but that's it.

Q: What do you think about the Benelux scene at the moment and how do you think the benelux teams will perform at cic7 ?

A: Well, the only team that will do well in my opinion is TLR, really hope for them that they will come top3 as they deserve it, they have been keen after the summerlans and they are my friends, so I wish them the best of luck. The benelux scene will soon be better as it's being restructured.

Q: How did Dignitas prepare for cic7 ?

A: We have competed in some online cups and we practiced and made some new tactics, just the basic stuff. On thursday we will bootcamp aswell to make sure everything is ready set go!

Q: Crossfire announced the groups Tuesday morning and you are in the same group as corgz, tMoe, iG and fear factory what do you think about the teams ?

A: The only team that will be hard is corgz, feel bad to play them in groups already, they are such great guys and hope they will place 2nd after us ofcourse :D

Q: Is winning the event the only place you would be happy with ?

A: After all the work we did, YES!

Q: What do you think about the Single Elimination format for big tournaments like cic7 ?

A: Love it, when you lose you're out. You have to be focused when you go into the playoffs, and I think that's our strongest point at the moment.

Q: What is your prediction for the top 3 ?

A: 1. Dignitas 2. Fnatic 3. TLR

The next questions can only be answered with players who are not in dignitas.

Q: Most underrated player ?

A: Sander

Q: Most overrated player ?

A: D1ablo

Q: Player you would like to be in a team with someday ?

A: obama

Q: Best Call of Duty 4 moment ?

A: Clutching with germaine to make it 12-12 on mp_citystreets and take it into in i37 final against fnatic!

Q: Thanks for you time Robin, do you have anything to end with ?

A: Shoutout to our sponsors - Intel, Scan, LG, EA Sports, Razer, Alienware, Western Digital, Bigfoot Networks and Creative. Last but not least I want to thank you guys for interviewing me and obama for taking me to CiC7 <3!!!
