HLTV.org spoke with Renegades' coach Nick "peekay" Wise following the team's loss to Luminosity across two maps in the official ELEAGUE opener.

Group A action at ELEAGUE Season 1 kicked off with two best-of-ones between Renegades and Luminosity, with Cobblestone being a closely contested map that Luminosity eventually closed out 19-17 and Train being an all one-sided affair with a 16-0 scoreline.

Afterwards, HLTV.org spoke with Nicholas "⁠Peekay⁠" Wise, coach of the Renegades and once an Australian caster, to talk about the tournament, the matches against Luminosity, and the future of Counter-Strike in the Asian region.
