Neyoo has already stated many times that according to him, ClutchGod is the best IGL (In-Game Leader) in India. So my question is for ClutchGod. Do you have the same opinion as him or for you, the first spot is taken by someone else, maybe Mavi?

I am grateful that Neyoo considers me the best IGL in India. I do not believe in comparing myself with others. I am entirely focused on my game, and I want to give 100% in all matches. The primary objective is always to achieve team goals.

Which team are you most looking forward to competing with, and also how are you planning to overcome the obstacles you faced last time at PMGC?

PMGC was an excellent opportunity for us to learn and improve our game. We witnessed the gameplay of the best teams, and it allowed us to understand different aspects of the game. We will apply those in future tournaments and raise our game to a higher level.

As professional Mobile gamers, do you think you face special challenges as compared to those who game on a system?

Every gamer faces their own set of challenges, whether they’re mobile gamers or gamers who play on a system. At the end of the day, I wish that all gamers overcome any challenge and have the opportunity to live their dream.

With the meteoric rise of mobile gaming in India, what changes do you think this would bring to the Indian gaming scene in the near future? 

The Indian gaming scene is growing rapidly, and it will continue to do in the coming years. This will help gamers perform on a great platform and showcase their talent. These opportunities would help us compete against the best teams in the world.

Neyoo and ClutchGod have already made a terrific start to 2022, representing India at a renowned event. With time on their side, they can achieve a lot more in the remainder of the year as well. Whether or not they can help take GodLike Esports to unprecedented heights, only time will tell.
