kkOma on Victory Over DK and T1 Roster: " Gumayusi Can Now Be Considered Our Main Player"

T1 secured an important victory over Dplus KIA with a score of 2–1, and the team's coach kkOma summarized the match and discussed roster decisions in an interview.

Gumayusi Returns to the Starting Lineup
When asked about the choice of the starting bot laner, kkOma stated:

At the moment, we believe that Gumayusi fits better into the lineup. The bot lane is just a part of the team, but after analyzing our overall synergy and understanding what we need to elevate our gameplay, we made this decision. Gumayusi can currently be considered our main player.

Additionally, the coach noted the high level of concentration of the ADC in today's series and thanked him for his composure under pressure.

Victory Over DK and Future Plans
kkOma was pleased with the outcome of the match but emphasized that the team must continue working on their mistakes:

I'm glad we won 2–1, but there are still many matches ahead. We need to improve our understanding of champion priorities and our overall form.

Oner , the team's jungler, also commented on the significance of the victory:

When the team is a bit unstable, defeating a top opponent greatly improves the atmosphere within the squad. However, despite the victory, we still have to seriously analyze our mistakes.

After the Loss and Working on Psychology
Speaking about recovering from the previous loss, kkOma noted:

Losses are always painful, but we have a long season, so we focused on reaching our peak performance as quickly as possible.

The coach also emphasized that the team is quite mature psychologically:

The players handle things well both internally and externally. I almost don't have to intervene in their mental state.

On Drafting and the Next Stage
When asked about the praise for their draft from the opponent, kkOma responded modestly:

Victory or defeat often depends on the specific understanding of the meta on match day. Today, both the gameplay and the draft were good, but we must continue to study the Patch and find the best combinations for our team.
