ENTREVISTA SATO PARA LEGENDAR

First of all, I wanted to say
congratulations on the performance.

I'm sorry that it wasn't as you expected,
that it wasn't a win,

but the performance
was well above average.

What was...

Sorry, I'm a little nervous

because it's the first time
that I'm interviewing.

It's ok, because it's my first time, too.

How is the adaptation of Leviatán going
and what is the biggest difference

between the training and routine
in Tier 1 and Tier 2?

My adaptation within Leviatán
has been quite chill.

It's very easy to work with the team.

I think the biggest difference
is that everyone is together

100% of the time.

Although you finish training,
when you take off your headphones,

you will look to the side
and you will see your teammates.

It just brings the feeling that
you're never really out of the game.

After finishing the training,
you'll still talk about the game,

even if you're not playing,
even if you're not on PC.

When you go out to dinner,
you'll end up,

- inevitably, talking about the game.
- Positive and negative points.

- What has to be improved?
- Yes.

Personally, I love it.

I really like the competition
and the game,

and that's why I think
I have this ease, you know?

And how do you feel about debuting
against Tier 1 teams

in the Qualifier for EWC?

Did you feel nervous when you debuted?

I believe so.

Otherwise, I'm a person who gets very
nervous in this type of situation,

but it turned out that the debuts
were easygoing.

I always knew that Tier 1
was not a three-headed monster.

Obviously, the level is higher than
what I witnessed in Tier 2

and there are many things
to get used to and to fix.

And I believe that today's result
is a reflection of that.

But, to conclude, I think "fun"
is the word that defines everything

that I'm witnessing at the moment.

Your trajectory was very quick
to go from Mixx to VCB,

then to VCL NA,
and now to the franchise...

Did the time on M80 help
prepare you to play on Leviatán?

Definitely.

The time I had at M80
helped me mold a lot as a player.

I think that before M80,
I was a little bit brainless.

I didn't have many ideas of my own,
I was more at the mercy of my team.

In Galorys, the system
was a lot around me,

and because of that, I was able
to bring very high performance

at the Brazilian Tier 2.

And this period at M80 taught me
that if I depend on that,

I won't be able to evolve as a player.

So in the beginning,
it was a little stressful

because there wasn't a system
that I was used to.

And, little by little,
I learned how to be more independent

and contribute to the team,

not only depending
on the team's contribution.

What’s it like to be on a mix team
that speaks English,

instead of the comfort
of your native language?

And are there any cultural differences,
external or internal to the game,

that stand out to you a lot?

There isn't much problem
with the language.

If I went straight into Leviatán

and didn't go through the process
I went through at M80,

then I think I would suffer a lot.

Whether I like it or not, it's difficult,
the communication is a little slower,

you suffer a little.

In relation to the culture...

I think that our norm is to have
a lot of diversity.

So I think that whenever we are in a group,
we always discover new things.

It's not so difficult to adapt,
because everyone is different

so there's no black sheep.

Have you shown something
from Brazil to the team?

Yes.

Because Boya, Leviatán's manager,
and I are also Brazilian,

we kind of dominate
the majority of the team,

we bring a lot of things from Brazil,
like expressions, a lot of swear words...

- Especially, haha.
- Especially swear words.

I think that when we are showing
things from Brazil,

what mainly comes to the mind
of the people is trying to learn a little,

- and people always go for the swear words.
- Yes.

I made a card with slangs in Portuguese,
like "valeu", "foi mal",

"tá suave", "tamo junto",
things like that,

and people told me that now I have
to do one just with swear words,

so people can learn too.

So I think the swear words in Portuguese
give a different intensity

when you're talking.

So, when you're going to vibrate,
I saw you talking when you did an ACE,

you made a 4k...
That you talk and screw everything up.

That's it.

That's the feeling that Brazilians feel
when they are achieving something.

So it's really cool, and people
will always want to learn.

Now, changing the topic a little,
getting out of Valorant,

what's been
your favorite fast food here?

- Because there are a lot of options.
- There are a lot of options.

There's Five Guys.
Have you tried it?

I think that Five Guys is my favorite.

- And Shake Shack?
- I think Five Guys wins.

It was the first one I went to
when I came here,

and it kind of determined...

- The level?
- Yes.

It's the most impactful for me
since I came here.

And what size of potato
do you order?

Because there's small,
medium, and large.

And it comes with plenty of potatoes.

- I always order small...
- Because it comes with plenty potatoes?

Because it comes
with plenty of potatoes.

When you're there,
the guys puts it in the bottle,

and puts more three times in the bag.

So, the small is already huge,
and the large must be... I don't know.

Once I went with my mother and she had
gone to the bathroom.

My mom doesn't speak English very well,
so she ordered two large potatoes.

When I came back from the bathroom I said
Why did you do that?

When I went to look it was like, there
were two bags practically only of

potatoes.

So when I go, I ask for a small one, a
small one is still enough for two

people, yes, And what is the main thing
you miss about Brazil?

All Certainty. My family is the thing I
miss the most in Brazil.

I don't think there's much that I miss in
Brazil.

To be honest, in addition to my home, but
that includes the comfort

of my family, because my home would be my
home if I didn't have that.

I also miss the Brazilian family playing
here in the Brazilian center.

I think it was much more fun to play in
Brazil than to play here.

The people here are more serious.

I wouldn't say that here it is more
serious.

Maybe I'm a little biased, because I knew
everyone in Brazil.

You.

Every time I played a ranked game, I
always talked to some guys, okay, I had

fun.

Here I know fewer people and there are a
lot, There are many more players, you

know?

So sometimes the matches are very good,
sometimes the matches are not so good.

The last question that to close who is
taller?

You are Oxi, But I don't know, I don't
know.

When I saw him I had this doubt in my
head, people depend on shoes.

There is a brand here in the United
States, I don't know if you already know

it, it's called Conjure, look for it and
it increases.

I think up to seven centimeters.

yes, it's not perfect, I don't have it,
but I see the advertisement all the time.

I'm not advertising here, I'm not doing
anything, even with him he pays me

there, but apparently it increases a
little of the person's height, so there

will have to be a search.

I told you that she comes home, Beauty,
Thank you very much saint and good luck

in the rest of the season.

You played a lot today and may you
continue to be able to perform this

way until the end and who knows how to
take it easy until then.

Thank you very much, thank you very much.
We are together.
