T1 achieved consecutive victories after overcoming the slump against GEN.G before the match against DRX. Coach Kkoma considers operational strategy and expanding the champion pool as the focus of the current training.
On the 21st, after winning against KDF in the first round of the 2024 LCK Summer Season regular match, Coach Kkoma said in an interview: "At first, it was difficult, but the players and coaching staff remained focused until the last moment and achieved victory. I think we were fortunate."
Regarding the loss in the first game against KDF, Coach Kkoma said: "There were mistakes in the mid-game strategy, and there was a difference in late-game damage in the composition, which led to our loss. In the subsequent games, we also modified the pick and ban strategy, and the players performed well even in unfavorable situations, ultimately helping the team win the game."
After overcoming the turmoil at the beginning of the season and relaxing, Coach Kkoma pointed out: "Due to today's victory, we can now say that we are in a relaxed state. I feel fortunate, especially winning against teams like DK and KDF, who have strong momentum, and in turn, we are also in good momentum now. Current victories are important, but I believe future matches are even more important."
In response, Coach Kkoma stated: "In order to expand the players' champion pool to deal with different patches, everyone needs to practice repeatedly." Before the match against DRX, Coach Kkoma decided to make "expanding the champion pool and improving operational strategy" the goal of the training plan.
In the final part of the interview, Coach Kkoma extended congratulations to Keria for his 500th game: "Today happens to be the day of Keria's 500th game, and I sincerely congratulate him. I hope he can reach 2000 appearances in the future. In addition, I am very grateful to the fans who have always supported us, and I appreciate the efforts of the players and coaching staff members. I will do my best to prepare for the upcoming matches."
