Daniel 'XlorD' Spenst will be flying to 
Sao Paulo in order to attend the Intel Extreme Masters offline tournament there. Before he flies away, we sat down with him to know about his feelings.
You beat many strong players in the qualifier, how did you prepare for the qualifier?
Well, I just played some ladder games.
You are with 
Benjamin 'DeMusliM' Baker, 
Jérémy 'Feast' Vansnick and Tunico in your group, what are your thoughts about this group?
I think DeMusliM is a strong player, Feast aswell. DeMusliM is training a lot in the United States. Feast is also playing very well lately, but I think I did not play against him yet. Tunico... well I don't know him too much, except that he is Zerg. We will see!
How did your practice for the tournament?
I couldn't practice too much due to school, but I hope I can impress you guys. I think I play better offline, so let's see. I mostly played ladder, that's my preparation.
You will face some of the best players in the world, do you feel you can claim the title?
I think I can make it to the top, but I don't know in which shape those players are, I just wanna show you great games.
9 Zergs will attend IEM Sao Paulo, what do you think about ZvZ?
ZvZ is all about starting build order luck, the best build order has the advantage in early games. But then it's pretty a skill game.
Who do you think will be the hardest opponent?
I think they are the Korean and fulltime players, like DeMusliM.
Are you exited to travel to Sao Paulo, Brazil?
Yeah, I've never been to Brazil. I heard the food is great, and I like to eat... So let's do this!
Any last words?
Thanks to MYM and our sponsors Razer, Western Digital and Puma for having the opportunity to attend IEM Sao Paulo and I hope you all support me. Thank you! XlorD 5:0
