1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,098 How are you? Congratulations on your win. 2 00:00:03,098 --> 00:00:05,643 I have mixed feelings 3 00:00:05,643 --> 00:00:07,590 I can't be completely happy about everything 4 00:00:07,590 --> 00:00:10,720 because I don't think we played all that well. 5 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:15,698 I think we have to continue with this hunger 6 00:00:15,698 --> 00:00:17,320 and not get complacent. 7 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:19,439 Because I think even if we won today 8 00:00:19,439 --> 00:00:21,960 and we did better than last week but... 9 00:00:22,730 --> 00:00:24,975 well, fifty fifty. 10 00:00:25,255 --> 00:00:27,780 You think there are still things to improve on. 11 00:00:27,780 --> 00:00:29,879 Yes I think regarding 12 00:00:30,939 --> 00:00:33,999 performances, when there is more pressure 13 00:00:33,999 --> 00:00:36,480 I think our level drops. 14 00:00:36,480 --> 00:00:39,040 I think we don't play as well as during practice 15 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,192 and I think it's a problem. 16 00:00:41,192 --> 00:00:43,753 What did you do during the offseason ? 17 00:00:44,115 --> 00:00:45,120 Well... 18 00:00:45,830 --> 00:00:47,719 during this last offseason, 19 00:00:47,719 --> 00:00:51,869 I went on a short trip 20 00:00:51,869 --> 00:00:54,100 and the rest of the time, I played LoL non-stop 21 00:00:54,100 --> 00:00:58,340 so it's been a little trip and work. 22 00:00:58,340 --> 00:01:00,320 How did you prepare for this split 23 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,400 considering your experience in the previous one? 24 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:06,309 Well, I reflected on what I think I was lacking 25 00:01:07,659 --> 00:01:09,540 I thought about what I should do better, 26 00:01:09,540 --> 00:01:13,550 come up with a plan for it, 27 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:20,309 write it down and work based on it. 28 00:01:20,309 --> 00:01:24,729 What do you think about streaming scrims in the LEC? 29 00:01:24,729 --> 00:01:27,550 Do you think it’s beneficial or harmful? 30 00:01:27,550 --> 00:01:28,600 What do you think? 31 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,608 I think it could be cool sometimes but... 32 00:01:33,060 --> 00:01:36,040 I don't think it's good 33 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,540 to pay more attention to the streaming than the performance, right ? 34 00:01:39,540 --> 00:01:42,661 But I think in certain cases, occasionally, 35 00:01:42,661 --> 00:01:43,741 it could be cool. 36 00:01:43,741 --> 00:01:45,547 With the new format of best of threes 37 00:01:45,547 --> 00:01:47,159 there are now more games. 38 00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:48,560 What do you think about this change 39 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,500 compared to the format with best of ones ? 40 00:01:50,740 --> 00:01:52,290 Well I think it's a lot better. 41 00:01:52,290 --> 00:01:56,500 It benefits the competition, at least at the level of gameplay 42 00:01:56,500 --> 00:01:59,829 because you have more time to adapt, 43 00:01:59,829 --> 00:02:02,889 you can improve more on stage, 44 00:02:02,889 --> 00:02:04,169 play more games on stage, 45 00:02:04,169 --> 00:02:07,320 and get more used to what it’s like to compete. 46 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,674 I think that before we played so few games 47 00:02:09,674 --> 00:02:10,460 and 48 00:02:10,990 --> 00:02:12,360 I think this way 49 00:02:12,770 --> 00:02:14,950 benefits the league in the end. 50 00:02:14,950 --> 00:02:17,990 Without the lane swaps or the level one swaps 51 00:02:17,990 --> 00:02:21,672 do you feel like you can now play the laning phase in a more standard way ? 52 00:02:22,041 --> 00:02:23,360 Yes absolutely. 53 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,810 I think it’s gone back a bit more to the 2v2, 54 00:02:25,810 --> 00:02:29,510 and with that the drafts change a bit 55 00:02:29,510 --> 00:02:32,480 since the bot lane 2v2 is more important now. 56 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,031 You can’t just swap and be done with it. 57 00:02:35,260 --> 00:02:37,240 So, yeah, that has changed a lot. 58 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,409 How’s the work with Álvaro and the rest of the team going 59 00:02:40,409 --> 00:02:42,324 in terms of communication and shotcalling? 60 00:02:44,086 --> 00:02:47,490 The communication is always a bit different 61 00:02:47,490 --> 00:02:49,310 depending on each game. 62 00:02:49,310 --> 00:02:51,140 But I think it's improving in our scrims 63 00:02:51,140 --> 00:02:53,279 although I think we still have a long way to go 64 00:02:53,279 --> 00:02:58,910 especially when it comes to being more efficient in how we communicate, 65 00:02:58,910 --> 00:03:00,480 how we receive feedback 66 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,123 and how we improve from there. 67 00:03:02,493 --> 00:03:06,100 How much impact would you say KOI's coaching staff 68 00:03:06,100 --> 00:03:07,530 has in your daily preparation? 69 00:03:08,790 --> 00:03:12,900 In my daily preparation, I wouldn't say it has much impact. 70 00:03:12,900 --> 00:03:17,900 It’s more when 71 00:03:18,660 --> 00:03:23,034 planning the drafts, planning the team's objectives, 72 00:03:23,034 --> 00:03:25,180 and then outside of that 73 00:03:25,180 --> 00:03:30,701 there are specific things like individual sessions, 74 00:03:30,701 --> 00:03:33,369 which are really good for giving you different perspectives 75 00:03:33,369 --> 00:03:34,589 and can help you. 76 00:03:34,589 --> 00:03:38,528 What would you say is the biggest strength of KOI this split as a team ? 77 00:03:38,998 --> 00:03:40,030 I think 78 00:03:42,249 --> 00:03:47,974 we are the best team at taking advantages. 79 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,499 What do you feel was different in this match 80 00:03:52,499 --> 00:03:54,879 compared to the last two, 81 00:03:54,879 --> 00:03:57,369 which looked quite different? 82 00:03:58,159 --> 00:04:04,730 I think we started the first game a little better than the other ones, 83 00:04:04,730 --> 00:04:08,833 and we played way more calmly. 84 00:04:08,833 --> 00:04:11,100 What do you think of the current meta for ADCs? 85 00:04:11,100 --> 00:04:13,160 Do you feel it suits your playstyle?" 86 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:14,679 Yes, I feel like I'm adapting 87 00:04:14,679 --> 00:04:16,479 but I think it's boring. 88 00:04:16,479 --> 00:04:22,052 I think utility ADCs and setup champs are a bit boring now. 89 00:04:22,432 --> 00:04:25,600 They need to change things up a bit, we’ve had enough of Varus and Ashe. 90 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,729 What do you think of the format changing to fearless draft? 91 00:04:27,729 --> 00:04:30,369 Do you like it more? Do you find it more attractive? 92 00:04:30,369 --> 00:04:32,980 I think it's very attractive and dope. 93 00:04:32,980 --> 00:04:34,110 I think 94 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,320 when we will have best of fives 95 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,969 it will be even more entertaining. 96 00:04:38,969 --> 00:04:40,140 But I like it very much. 97 00:04:40,730 --> 00:04:44,240 How has living together at the team house been this split 98 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,180 with the new addition to the roster? 99 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,240 Good, I'd say. 100 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,060 I think everyone liked it. 101 00:04:53,060 --> 00:04:57,000 Do you have any words for your fans and KOI fans? 102 00:04:57,250 --> 00:04:59,650 Thank you so much for supporting us 103 00:04:59,650 --> 00:05:02,785 I am very grateful to be here, to have this opportunity. 104 00:05:02,785 --> 00:05:04,109 And... 105 00:05:04,379 --> 00:05:06,088 we will keep working. 106 00:05:06,088 --> 00:05:09,995 It's our first win of the season. 107 00:05:09,995 --> 00:05:13,920 We need 6 more if I'm not mistaken. 108 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,270 And let's go for the LEC title !
