(League of Legends) Let’s take a look at the post-match press conference of Gen.G members after winning the MSI 2024 tournament.
After the 3-1 win against BLG at the MSI 2024 grand final, GEN members went into the press conference room and answered a few questions from the media.
(Ask Chovy) How did you feel at the moment of victory?
I felt a rush of emotions thinking that I had finally won an international title.
(Ask Peyz) What do you think about the success you’ve experienced so far?
Last year, I felt like I grabbed 2 out of 4 opportunities.
(Ask Chovy) Do you think this MSI championship will help GEN win the Grand Slam?
If we win the LCK Summer tournament, we will have a chance to win the Grand Slam (winning all 4 major tournaments of the year), so I will continue to work hard to seize that opportunity.
(To Canyon) You’ve added the MSI championship title to your achievements.
I’m really happy to have elevated my career with this MSI championship.
(Ask Lehends) You have been named FMVP.
I always think about how to do my best to win.
(Ask KIM) How do you think Gen.G improved after the MSI tournament?
Because foreign teams confidently choose many different champions, we also have to practice a lot of different champions.
(Ask Canyon) What was the reason for choosing Karthus in game 1?
Since we picked Nidalee in the previous game, I thought the AP champion might be banned in phase 2, so I practiced Karthus.
LCK wins MSI for the first time in 7 years How do you feel about that?
After winning LCK Spring, even though we had good results, I wasn’t sure if I could win MSI.
(Ask KIM) How do you compare the IG 2018 team with the GEN 2024 team?
Both IG and Gen.G have excellent players and I don’t want to compare them.
(Ask KIM) What do you think is the main reason behind the MSI championship?
The players in this GEN squad all have a lot of experience.
(Ask Kiin) How is winning at MSI different from winning at LCK?
Winning the LCK felt like achieving something unattainable because it was my first win, while winning at MSI gave me the confidence to go one step further.
(To Chovy) You were named the best mid laner in the world after this victory.
I think I showed performance worthy of winning the MSI 2024 championship. My goal is to win Worlds and continue to be called the best mid laner.
(To Canyon) Bilibili Gaming tried to backdoor in game 4. What did you think then?
With both main towers destroyed, we were lucky enough to capture Tristana and gain the Baron buff.
(To Canyon) You won both Worlds and MSI in China.
I feel like every time I go to China I will be lucky.
(To Kiin) Bin mentioned in an interview before the final that you are one level below Zeus.
I don’t pay much attention to such interviews.
(To KIM) Which player are you most cautious about and how do you plan to play against him?
As you saw in the picks and bans, we continuously banned Ahri and Taliyah.
In phase 1, we chose strong champions in the mid and bottom lane.
(Ask Kiin) After a long time without any championships, you won both the LCK and MSI this year.
Before, I felt like I had forgotten how to win, but this year, continuously winning with my teammates taught me a lot.
(Ask Kiin) In the final moments of game 4, you sold your items to buy wards and defend against your opponent’s backdoor attempts.
I think GEN fights harder so the opponent will definitely backdoor.
