Q. Could you provide your thoughts on today's match.

Q. What was the most disappointing aspect?

Head Coach Yoon = The pick-ban in Game 3 made the laning phase extremely difficult for us.

Q. You’ve recorded three straight losses in the LCK since winning the MSI. What are your thoughts?

Q. What are your thoughts on Shyvana?

Head Coach Yoon = Looking at the opponent's first three picks, I didn't think it was a bad choice. But since we ultimately lost, I have nothing to say other than that I need to go back and review it.

Q. What is the biggest change needed to turn things around?

Head Coach Yoon = Even though we lost, I feel like we are improving. I think we just need to do a better job with our pick-ban.

Q. Any final words?
