Last weekend the ESWC Qualifiers for Sweden in Quake 4 were held. At first it wasn’t looking too exciting as some of Sweden’s most renowned talent had not signed up. At the very last minute though, the names of toxic, fojji and fooki were added. This led to the anticipation of many exciting games – and boy did the participants in this tournament put on some fantastic games!

I know you may be thinking that it’s just a qualifier, nothing too exciting. Sweden has a lot of great talent in many games, including Quake and Counter Strike. Many people do believe that Sweden is one of the most difficult country to qualify for tournaments from, simply because of the abundance of talent.

It was fantastic to see toxic back in action and as usual he did not fail to deliver. He made it through the entire qualifier without dropping a map. The finals against fojji were pretty spectacular to see from just a qualifier event. There was a lot of talent there and I managed to interview some players from the event. Read on to view the interviews.
