We sat down with Dauren "AdreN" Kystaubayev after HellRaisers passed the group stage from second place following the defeat of Virtus.pro.

HellRaisers were knocked down to the lower bracket of group A when PENTA surprised them in the initial match, but they were able to bounce back with a fairly comfortable win against volgare and even moreso with Virtus.pro.

AdreN says HellRaisers gained some confidence going to playoffs 

One of the team's newest additions, Dauren "⁠AdreN⁠" Kystaubayev sat down with us to talk about numerous topics, mainly including their roster change, preparation going into ASUS ROG Winter and the matches they've played at the event.

He also pointed out who he would rather play in the semi-final out of group B's teams, and he also gave his prediction on how the group would pan out. Hit play below to watch the whole interview:

We will catch up with some of group B's teams next before closing the first day's coverage from ASUS ROG Winter 2015.
