Junior: I think for sure that I have the ability to become a great player

The talented NA AWPer is still very confident about his future at the Brazilian team.

In the early stages of this year, the promising North American Paytyn “Junior” Johnson left his home country to join the Brazilian top team FURIA. The transfer was on many levels a very interesting and ground-breaking move, as he joined a fully stacked Brazilian roster, where every member speaks Portuguese, but also in the way that he was a rather inexperienced and untested player.

We have sat down with the man himself, to talk about his first months at FURIA and how he has coped with the pressure of joining such a great organization and team.

- Being on a top CSGO team like FURIA, I have realized how serious they treat their jobs; this is their life and their skill is amazing. And playing with these Brazilians, I’ve realized that there is no weak player or weak link in the team. In any given match, every member of the team could win you the game.

Junior clutches home a tough round vs Astralis at ESL Pro League:

Very early into Junior’s stint at FURIA, it was clear to see that he and Andrei “arT” Piovezan had a special bond and partnership inside the server. The young American looked to thrive under the FURIA IGL and his extremely aggressive playstyle, where a potential double-AWP setup also was revealed.

- arT is a very smart guy. The way he plays has opened my eyes to a different way of the game in how it’s played, and how there’s nobody else in the world who does the same.

I think with more time arT and I can make the aggressive double-AWP very strong in the future. We just need more time to figure out how we should use it.

Junior hasn’t presented the same high individual level at FURIA as he previously has displayed at Triumph. However, the 20-year old talent is still very confident regarding his future in CS:GO and at FURIA.

- My personal goal is obviously to be the best player I can be under FURIA. In some time, I hope to become a really good international player and play some LANs and get more experience. I think for sure that I have the ability to become a great player and I just have to keep working hard.

As a team, our goal is to remain in the Top 10 for the whole year, but who knows how fast we will improve maybe we can get #1 on HLTV but we need more practice for sure before I can solidify anything.

The 2021-edition of FURIA haven't been as frightening as we have seen before.

Junior and the rest of FURIA will be back in action today at 18:30 (CET), as they take on MIBR in a thrilling Brazilian battle at BLAST Premier Spring Showdown. The winner of the match advance to the quarterfinals, while the loser must head home empty-handed.
