I'm back and I'm at Worlds in Korea! I caught up with Contractz ahead of NRG's first game at Worlds to get his thoughts on returning to the international stage after 6 years and this year's Worlds competition.

Be sure to check out my weekly Worlds videos, "Let's Go," on the LCS Youtube channel, where I take you behind the scenes at the World Championship, following the LCS teams and taking in the sights and sounds of each stop in Korea: http://www.youtube.com/lcs
