Posted on at


Rave has been shaking things up at the DAC, winning multiple games against heavily favored teams. We sat down with Dota 2 veteran and current Rave player, Jio 'Jeyo' Madayag to hear his views on life in Korea, future plans and performance expectations.

Starting off the interview, Jeyo talks about his life in Korea. He is pretty happy with his current life in Korea saying that "Korea is a pretty good place for living [...] besides gaming, there's other things to do", he also adds that in Korea he can scrim with Chinese, SEA, Korean and American teams; making it a good place to train.

Moving on to his upcoming match against Big God, he states that "At most I expected to be top eight, right now I think we have exceeded our expectations [...] I still feel we have a long way to go." Going on, he explains that Rave has only "practiced for like a week for DAC" and that Rave's play style has changed in the tournament, having "adapted a more western play style."

When asked about his and Rave's future plans, Jeyo says that for Rave that they "just want to focus on the tournament" and that "roster changes will always be in the back of their heads if they are not happy with their performance." As for his personal future plans, he says that "For now I just want to win [...] until the year ends, then I will step away from gaming and go back to school or something."
