和FNC和TL交手更好 Lucid自信能贏TES希望與之對戰

Q: What are the thoughts of each player on qualifying for the World Championship?

Kingen: First of all, I want to thank DK for organizing such a cool send-off ceremony. It feels like we are already in a match when we see the fierce host (Roaring Emperor) here. When I qualified for the World Championship in 2018, I was a substitute player and didn't get to play. In 2022, I qualified for the World Championship and won the championship. This is my third time competing in the World Championship. Just like what was shown in the documentary, I have left many happy memories in DK. I want to show a good performance at the World Championship and create beautiful memories with my teammates. I hope the World Championship will be a precious time. I will prepare hard and give back to everyone with good competitive level.

Lucid: It's very grateful that I can participate in the World Championship in my first year as a pro player. I am very excited and looking forward to playing against many teams overseas.

Q: This should be your first time going abroad on a business trip, how do you feel?

Lucid: Yes. I want to train quickly and compete against many teams in the tournament. I have confidence in playing well and I am really excited.

Q: What are the thoughts of each player on qualifying for the World Championship?

ShowMaker: This should be my sixth journey to the World Championship. Every time before participating in the World Championship, I set high goals for myself, but lately, we haven't been able to reach higher stages, which is quite regrettable. This time at the World Championship, I will definitely work hard to reach a higher stage.

Aiming: This is my first time attending the send-off ceremony, it's very interesting. This is my second time participating in the World Championship, but it's my first time going overseas for the World Championship. I'm curious and excited to play overseas, it should be very interesting.

Kellin: This time at the World Championship, I may be a substitute or I may be a starter. Now I can compete for the starting position and I will do my best within the designated time frame.

Moham: After becoming a professional player, being able to participate in such a send-off ceremony and qualifying for the World Championship, I feel that I have received a lot of opportunities and attention. I have only played at LOL PARK, so playing matches in overseas venues outside of LOL PARK makes me very excited and nervous. It should be fun as well.

Q: What do you want to do at the World Championship?

Moham: I have a lot of things I want to do. For example, eating instant noodles on the plane because it's a long flight. I also want to order room service at the hotel and see the street view.

Q: Please introduce the team jersey for this World Championship, Lucid.

Lucid: First of all, it's very clean and neat. It suits the simple white design very well, and there is a mint color on the back, which makes it feel special. Compared to the regular season jacket, the World Championship jacket is thicker, and fans can wear it during the World Championship. It will be on sale at 1 p.m. on Monday, I hope everyone can purchase it.

— Audience Q&A:

Q: This question is for Aiming. My friends and I once discussed whether a good AD carry is someone who plays safe in positioning and takes opportunities to output damage or someone who creates their own opportunities to increase DPS. We almost argued about it. Can you answer this question?

Aiming: If it's about ranked games, I think it's better to secure kills. If it's a team game, then play steadily first. To be honest, I think it depends on different team compositions, when stability is needed, I strive to play steadily, when aggression is needed, I strive to be aggressive. I can play well in both situations.

Q: This question is for Kingen. Actually, I thought you played very well when you were on another team last year. After joining DK, especially since the summer split started, many people say that you have improved even more. In the hearts of DK fans, there's even a saying, "This might be a short-term good state, so renew your contract for 2-3 years and prove yourself." Your current competitive level is very good, and you have performed exceptionally in the previous World Championships. What kind of competitive level do you think you can show at this World Championship? What are your expectations for yourself?

Kingen: First of all, thank you very much for having high expectations of me. This is my personal opinion, if you ask me which is more difficult, the World Championship or LCK, I think LCK is more difficult. After entering the quarterfinals of the World Championship, it becomes much more difficult. Before that, there are many situations where we have room for improvement and can integrate into the World Championship with our teammates. The way we show ourselves at the World Championship depends on whether we can spend this time meaningfully leading up to it. Instead of feeling burdened by everyone's expectations, I just feel that I need to show my competitive level that doesn't disappoint.

Q: This question is for Lucid. Our legendary jungler left the team and you took over that position. There must be a lot of pressure, but you have shown a very good performance and even won the Rookie of the Year award. At this World Championship, you will probably compete against many junglers. In the first round, we will face TES, FNC, or TL. Which jungler from these three teams do you want to compete against?

Lucid: I believe I am good at fighting, so I want to compete against all the LPL junglers. Although I think it would be better to fight against FNC and TL in the first round, I also think we can defeat TES. Personally, I want to compete against TES.
