ESL: What was your most memorable moment from the Season 3 qualifiers? Why does it stand out among the rest of your experiences this season?
Madzin: Probably Crathen's destiny to be in the Finals. I had to gate keep him five consecutive weeks and the one I didn't participate in he goes on to win the week and earn enough points. 

ESL: With the Finals quickly approaching, how have you been preparing?
Madzin: I have trained and learned with so many people in the months leading up to the Finals that hopefully I don't get surprised by anything I have to face.

ESL: Who would you say is your biggest threat?
Madzin: My biggest threat is always myself, but more than that, every player that gives Sub-Zero a hard time. He is my Day 1 main after all and my weapon of choice. 

ESL: Who are you looking forward to facing the most in the Finals?
Madzin: Everyone I have to face in my path. All of them are amazing players and are so unique in their choices in terms of characters and matchmaking decisions. 

ESL: What is your goal now that you are competing in the Season 3 Finals?
Madzin: My goal is obviously to win, but the competition consists of the worldwide sixteen best players, so nobody is a run over. 

Don't miss the Mortal Kombat X Season 3 Finals streamed live from the NetherRealm Twitch channel on Saturday, June 11!
