In an exclusive and lenghty interview, TEK9 had the chance to interview a fascinating personality: namely Roy Gerritsen. This 23-year-old Dutch Counter-Strike player is someone who puts his heart and soul into e-sports and strives to reach for the moon and stars. He is indisputably one of the best CS-players The Netherlands has to offer and supports his team through thick and thin.

A man with his hand on his heart gives us an exceptional insight into his troublesome youth, the start of his career and the future that lies in front of him. Without further ado, we present you the man behind the gamer in four phases: A dekko at Roy, The first steps in the World of CS, A change of environment and The combined forces. Enjoy!

some very strong and interesting points were made by Roy. Can't say I agree with all the statements, but like he said: he was just being honest. Didn't realize that B. De Geyter had such an impact on LLL tough, but the other managers shouldn't be underestimated aswell :-). I have great confidence in Filip's potential for example.
Anyway, nice read!
