We sat down with Sean "⁠Gratisfaction⁠" Kaiwai in the aftermath of Renegades making the playoffs at IEM Katowice and talked to the AWPer about his transition from Grayhound, playing Astralis, and the historic success.

The sniper from New Zealand made the switch from dominant local side Grayhound to North America-based Renegades in October, and has already propelled the squad to new heights, helping them reach a top-eight placing at his first Major.

Fitting into Renegades was pretty easy for Gratisfaction

In our interview, Gratisfaction revealed that playing Astralis at this event was "probably his favorite game played", that he didn't feel comfortable after "jinxing" his team in the match against Vitality, and also touched on living in Poland for a prolonged period of time.
