up here

even though there's a hot tub

chilling there.

I have no idea, actually.

I... was it like that

when we moved in?

When you're building a team,

you want to look for people

that, one, are good at the game,

two, have motivation

to become better at the game,

and three, people

that you just genuinely like.

So for us, we all trust

each other wholeheartedly,

and that translates

into the game as well.

So if I do something

in the game, and,

like, I jump into five people

by myself,

my team will trust me,

and they'll back me up.

They'll jump into the fray with

me, regardless of what it is.

How did that hit?

You're spider-man.

Cloud9 has been together,

like, two years.

Since we've come into the scene,

every other team

has had multiple roster changes

except for us.

And for whatever reason,

we mesh together fairly well.

- Hey, Hai?

- What?

Italian sausage marinara,

right?

Yeah, pasta.

You want hot wings

with hot sauce?

Damn.

Okay.

Back in the day when my wife

and I started dating,

I had to reveal to her,

like, my biggest secret.

"So, I play video games."

She's like, "so?"

And I'm like,

"i play them a lot."

And she said,

"what do you mean, a lot?"

I'm like, "i play, like,

40, 50 hours every week."

And she's like, "what?!"

Said, "i play this game.

It's called 'world of warcraft, '

I run a guild."

Nerd scream! Whoo!

And she's like, "how long

has this been going on?"

Like, "years."

And she's like, "i got to

see this. What is this?"

Would you like

to open the play-doh?

- Yeah.

- Yes.

Wow!

Holly was actually

pregnant with Madison

when I was working for tsm.

Tsm means team solomid.

It's one of the earliest

esports organizations

in "league of legends."

Jack used to be

the general manager of tsm.

LOOK, April 5th,

I'll TELL YOU RIGHT NOW.

Is that the next time you play?

- Yeah.

- All right.

I'm not shaving

until we beat curse.

I found myself in a state

where, like, "hey,

I'd like to do this for myself.

All I needed was a team."

But then Hai come to me,

and he said, "hey,

I want you to make a company

for my team to play under."

I knew Hai's team.

Hai's team was really good.

They'd been beating tsm

90% of the time.

And tsm at the time

was like the number-one team

in north America.

We both lived in San Jose

at the time.

We were like considered

sister teams of cloud9.

You're his left-hand man?

- Oh!

- Whoa!

Originally, team solomid

dominated north America...

Until we showed up.

Now we and team solomid

are constantly competing

to be the best in north America.

We're, I would say,

the primary representation

of the north American region.
