"I can hardly believe it, we came here without much preparation," Matias said in the winning interview. Nevertheless: "We came here with the aim of winning. We had faith in ourselves," teammate Dalgo said.

For the first major tournament of the FGS in a pure 2-on-2 format, some of the best FIFA players in the world gathered. Heretics left scene greats like Donovan "Tekkz" Hunt, Spencer "Gorilla" Ealing and Tom "Tom" Leese behind.
