At the LCK Roadshow 'House of Gen.G' held at KINTEX in Ilsan on the 1st, Dplus KIA proved their fierce momentum by sweeping Gen.G 2-0. In the post-match media interview, Head Coach Kim Dae-ho and 'Kellin' Oh Hyeong-seok shared their thoughts on the victory, the secret behind their recent surge in performance, and the team's growth process.

Q. How do you feel about the 2-0 victory at House of Gen.G?

Head Coach Kim Dae-ho = I really wanted to win, but beyond just the victory, I am extremely satisfied with our performance.

'Kellin': Gen.G is a strong team, and it was a great experience to play on such a big stage. I'm even happier that we managed to win.

Q. Your form has been steadily improving since the EWC. What is the biggest secret?

Head Coach Kim Dae-ho = I think the secret lies in our interpretation of high-speed play. Rather than just forcing a fast tempo, we sometimes mix in off-beat plays. I believe the reason for our recent performance is that all five players are moving organically in those situations.

Q. How did you prepare for the match against Gen.G? Also, what was the key to your victory?

Head Coach Kim Dae-ho = Rather than preparing a specific counter-strategy, we focused on consistently refining what we have been working on, while also staying wary of what Gen.G likes and excels at. Personally, I think our Supporter, 'Kellin', was the MVP today.

Q. Which player on the team is currently performing their role for DK the best?

Head Coach Kim Dae-ho = All five players need to have the same level of understanding. If only one person leads on the borderline of whether to commit or not, the team will eventually fail. So, it is crucial that all five share the same mindset. If I had to pick, 'ShowMaker' is incredible, and next would be 'Smash'. I would describe him as an ADC who doesn't play like a typical ADC; he has an exceptional ability to read the overall game state.

Q. You once said this team could become a top-tier squad. Do you consider them one now?

Head Coach Kim Dae-ho = The atmosphere is great right now, but the meta is constantly changing. There will definitely be a point where we stumble, and I am wary of that. To answer your question, I think we have developed the characteristics of a strong team to a certain extent.

Q. Beyond team tactics and preparation, the individual form of the players is also immense. Is there any player who has improved significantly in a short period?

Head Coach Kim Dae-ho = In terms of growth, it is definitely 'Kellin'. I am talking about the rate of growth within a specific period, not absolute skill. This level of growth is exceptional. Also, I want to emphasize that the players didn't just suddenly get better; it's like water reaching a boil. It had been steadily rising from 1 degree to 100 degrees, and the time has simply come for it to get hot.

Q. Any final words?

Head Coach Kim Dae-ho = Our fans are our driving force. Thank you for being such a great source of strength; it's been a joy. Please continue to support us.

'Kellin': I am truly grateful to the fans, and I will do my best to keep improving.
