Team Dignitas reveals the best trash talkers in the HGC

"Every time you lose to something, like Zarya, you just get angry. It's like, 'Why are you playing Zarya? Why are you making me play against Zarya? Why am I losing to Zarya?'"

[Western Clash] Team Freedom's renewed confidence: "It's all about leading the early game, locking the game, then winning the game."

"We have learned a lot for their drafts -- the Medivh and the Maiev. In NA, the meta is completely different so we have learned a lot from their drafts and rotations."

[Western Clash] Dignitas Snitch on Maiev: "If you weren't playing her well, it was a nerf."

"they play against us and it is just useless -- we have no idea why they drafted these sort of things."

Tempo Storm Fan: "I think every team outside of HeroesHearth has actually regressed in skill"

North America this year has had their best LAN performances ever against the rest of the world but Fan isn’t so optimistic that is going to continue at this event

HeroesHearth Khroen:  “This is the first tournament where we have the expectation that we can do very well.”

HeroesHearth Esports isn't the underdog anymore. Having not dropped a single match to kick off phase two, the warm-personality squad has ascended from Open Division to repping the top overall seed in North America coming into Western Clash this weekend.

Player quotes from the HGC Western Clash: "Breez has really stepped it up this tournament."

Snitch: I think it’s very clear that the changes that North America made throughout 2018 HGC have benefitted them amazingly. The new lineups are very dedicated
