‘Warhols’ Chen Luz, who took over the baton of Vietnamese team Secret Wales, worked as a coach for LPL teams starting with Flash Wolves, and has been active in LCP since this year. He emphasized the need to work harder on the team’s promising star, Tran “Dir” Dui.
TSW faced BNK Peer
The ‘Warhols’ director started as a director at Flash Wolves in 2013. FPX helped win the League of Legends World Championship (Worlds Cup) held in Paris, France in 2019 by defeating G2 Esports. After working at TES, WE, and JD Gaming, he has been active at TSW since this year.
In a post-game interview with G2 Esports, coach ‘Warhols’ explained, “I chose TSW because they showed good performance last year. Korean coaches usually go to other regions to coach. There is no problem with the language part,” and “I think it is no problem for the coaching staff to communicate simply in English. If a really difficult question comes up, there is an interpreter.”
TSW, which won the LCP Split 1 and participated in the first stand, is a team composed of promising players. Regarding how to communicate with promising players, he emphasized, “I try to talk a lot with professional players. It is important to understand their thoughts,” and “It is important to know the players’ inner thoughts.”
Among them, the player of note is mid laner ‘Dir’ Tran Zuihe. He is a player compared to JD Gaming’s ‘Hong Q’ Tsai Minghong. The director of ‘Warhols’ said that the team was better than ‘Hong Q’, which moved to Jingdong Gaming, saying, “We still need to work harder.”
TSW’s next opponent is BNK PeerX. Coach ‘Warhols’ emphasized, “The team’s condition is important and it must be better than today. I hope there will be good play.”
