Jin Jing-soo: Peyz has the dominance of a newcomer and has learned a lot from his older teammates

Q: What are your thoughts after the match?

Jin Jing-soo: T1's condition was very good today, but we won the match 2-0, so I feel very good.

Kiin : Although the first game was a bit tough, the result was 2-0, so I feel very good.

Q: Can you talk about the first game?

Jin Jing-soo: Although we were a bit behind in kills in the first game, I thought it was still a 50-50 situation and we might lose, so I was thinking about winning the second game. But we made a comeback in the first game, and I didn't feel particularly uneasy.

Kiin : Actually, in the late game, both sides had good equipment, and it was just a matter of winning one team fight. Our team performed better in the team fight, which made me very satisfied.

Q: How did you prepare for the match against T1?

Jin Jing-soo: We planned to choose late-game champions, focusing more on counter-picking during the laning phase. Therefore, we thought dragging the game to the late stage would be more advantageous, and this was our strategy when preparing the lineup.

Q: Why did you ban Kalista in the second game?

Jin Jing-soo: In the first game, Kalista disrupted our rhythm by lane swapping, which took a lot of our time, and her ultimate made us uneasy. Gumayusi is very strong, and Keria is very good at using Kalista's ultimate, so we decided to ban her and then try our tactics.

Q: The scene where you caught Lillia in the late game of the first match was impressive?

Kiin : At that time, the opponent had a lot of vision in the dragon area, and we had just left the base. We planned to use teleport to take positions in advance and harass the enemy. We happened to see Lillia taking the Rift Scuttler, so we were lucky to kill her.

Q: Peyz achieved 1000 kills?

Jin Jing-soo: This is an achievement reached in a very short time. Peyz is still young, and I hope he can continue to create great records. I believe he will become an outstanding player, so I want to congratulate him on his thousand kills today.

Kiin : Peyz has always been quick at getting kills, and if he continues his career and accumulates kills at this pace, he is very likely to achieve 2000 or even 3000 kills.

Q: Can you talk about Peyz's growth?

Jin Jing-soo: His own abilities are certainly excellent, but playing with experienced veterans has accelerated his growth. He has the dominance of a newcomer and has learned a lot from his older teammates, so he has grown very quickly.

Kiin : Peyz has a strong desire for kills and farming, so he performs well in both kills and growth. This desire and ability have led to his achievements.

Q: The next opponent is DRX?

Jin Jing-soo: We will work hard to prepare. Although we say this every time, we will seriously prepare, work hard in scrims, and carefully watch and analyze the matches.

Kiin : We will take every team seriously, regardless of the opponent. We won't take DRX lightly and will prepare fully to strive for victory.

Q: You directly entered the second round of the playoffs?

Jin Jing-soo: I am very happy to directly enter the playoffs, and we need to prepare thoroughly for it. Whether it's practice or time management, we will arrange it reasonably and prepare well for the playoffs and the matches afterward.

Kiin : Securing a spot in the second round of the playoffs means we have a lot of time to prepare. During this time, we need to study excellent champion picks and prepare thoroughly.

Q: Any final words for the interview?

Kim Jeong-soo: Thank you to all the fans who support GEN. We will strive to perform better and continue to do our best. Thank you.

Kiin : We will give our all in the remaining second-round matches and strive for total victory. Thank you.
