KWANGDONG FREECS (KDF) faced a tough 0-2 loss to BNK FEARX in their recent League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK) match at LoL PARK in Jongno. Despite a promising two-game winning streak, the team couldn’t keep up the momentum.
After the game, Head Coach Cho Jae-eup shared, “The opposing team’s teamwork was superior.” He also mentioned, “There were differences in perspectives between me and the players regarding the BNK FEARX match, affecting our performance. The pick-ban phase didn’t go as planned.”
When discussing the first set’s collapse following setbacks in key lanes, Cho explained, “The pick-ban strategy played a bigger role than individual performances. We made adjustments for the next game, but the impact of losing the first set lingered.”
Cho emphasized, “BNK FEARX has a unique playstyle. Despite concerns raised before the match, we couldn’t find common ground with the players. Our strategy gave them too much comfort.”
