In 2017, Rogue took six first set names, and were regrettably not able to procure a group slot at the Overwatch League, therefore that they disbanded, and everybody became a free agent.
People began to speculate that perhaps the older Rogue group was gradually coming back together.
While the older Rogue squad didn't go back to the Overwatch League on one group, five associates did reunite to the year's Overwatch World Cup to represent France. Following the second day of drama in Paris, I sat down with aKm to speak about what it was like playing in the front of the home audience, playing old buddies, and much more.
Interview with aKm
So I have experienced back in 2012, but that was nothing compared to now. I believe esports in France have exploded, in a sense, so there is so many fans people, the French group, right today. Having the ability to play a home audience is excellent, you can sense the energy moving through your entire body. It is like something bewitching.
You may feel it from the media area!
Yeah!
You can notice it, the walls could shake.
Now there is a couple of French players at the Overwatch League, do you think kind of funneled to this and the high heeled? Just like the hype in the Overwatch League?
I am not sure. Yeah I think players enjoy Poko, SoOn, me and uNKOE, we've got a massive fanbase. We have been enjoying the game for a couple of decades back in Rogue we had a massive fanbase too, so it sort of transformed to that.
I have never really experienced that type of energy at the Overwatch League, it is not quite as loudly as here, for instance. However, I think with a good deal of fans out of the Overwatch League really helped with that lots of fans here, too.
It had been, it had been. Since Overwatch League resembles, many enthusiast are cheering for numerous groups, but they are not really cheering for you. French lovers are like, 95 percent of the folks here are just cheering for one group. So it is definitely something better for me as a participant, I believe for the entire group for a group.
But yeah, it was clearly an entirely different thing.
