How are you? Congratulations on your win.
I have mixed feelings
I can't be completely happy about everything
because I don't think we played all that well.
I think we have to continue with this hunger
and not get complacent.
Because I think even if we won today
and we did better than last week but...
well, fifty fifty.
You think there are still things to improve on.
Yes I think regarding
performances, when there is more pressure
I think our level drops.
I think we don't play as well as during practice
and I think it's a problem.
What did you do during the offseason ?
Well...
during this last offseason,
I went on a short trip
and the rest of the time, I played LoL non-stop
so it's been a little trip and work.
How did you prepare for this split
considering your experience in the previous one?
Well, I reflected on what I think I was lacking
I thought about what I should do better,
come up with a plan for it,
write it down and work based on it.
What do you think about streaming scrims in the LEC?
Do you think it’s beneficial or harmful?
What do you think?
I think it could be cool sometimes but...
I don't think it's good
to pay more attention to the streaming than the performance, right ?
But I think in certain cases, occasionally,
it could be cool.
With the new format of best of threes
there are now more games.
What do you think about this change
compared to the format with best of ones ?
Well I think it's a lot better.
It benefits the competition, at least at the level of gameplay
because you have more time to adapt,
you can improve more on stage,
play more games on stage,
and get more used to what it’s like to compete.
I think that before we played so few games
and
I think this way
benefits the league in the end.
Without the lane swaps or the level one swaps
do you feel like you can now play the laning phase in a more standard way ?
Yes absolutely.
I think it’s gone back a bit more to the 2v2,
and with that the drafts change a bit
since the bot lane 2v2 is more important now.
You can’t just swap and be done with it.
So, yeah, that has changed a lot.
How’s the work with Álvaro and the rest of the team going
in terms of communication and shotcalling?
The communication is always a bit different
depending on each game.
But I think it's improving in our scrims
although I think we still have a long way to go
especially when it comes to being more efficient in how we communicate,
how we receive feedback
and how we improve from there.
