‘Sixth Man Craftsman’ Manager Kim Jeong-gyun, Who Will be Selected for the Evaluation Match?
The Republic of Korea's national e-sports team, League of Legends, will hold an evaluation match for two days starting today ahead of the opening of the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games.
The first match, which will be played on the 11th, will be against Vietnam, and the second match, which will be played tomorrow, will be against Taiwan.
As this is the first team together as a 'one team', fans' attention is focused on who will be the first mid laner selection. 토토사이트
The League of Legends national team has a total of 6 members, of which only 2 are in the mid line: Faker (Lee Sang-hyuk) and Chovy (Jung Ji-hoon).
Therefore, competition between the two players for the starting spot is unavoidable.
As both players have shown good form for a long time, coach Kim Jeong-gyun is also deeply concerned.
Faker is a veteran who debuted in 2013 and has already surpassed 10 years since his debut.
His winning record alone amounts to 3 League of Legends World Championships (Worlds Cup), 2 Mid-Season Invitationals (MSI), and 10 League of Legends Champions Korea.
He is an icon in the world of LoL, both in name and reality.
He reached the finals of the World Cup in 2022, and is maintaining such good form that he advanced to the finals of all domestic competitions this year as well.
Chovy has also been consistently showing good form since his debut in 2018.
After making his debut at Griffin, he attracted attention for his outstanding physical ability from the second division.
Afterwards, he showed destructive performances, reaching the final in 2019 immediately after promotion to the first division.
He had nothing to do with the championship trophy, but after lifting the first LCK championship trophy at Gen.G Esports in the summer of 2022, he succeeded in achieving a 'three fit' by winning three consecutive championships through the spring and summer of 2023.
He is currently considered the best mid laner in Korea.
Director Kim Jeong-gyun is a director who likes and uses the 'six man' strategy well enough to admit it himself.
As a coach and manager, he has won three World Cup titles, two MSI championships, and 10 LCK championships.
He has many memories of turning things around by using a sixth man at important moments. His representative example is the 2015 LCK Spring Semifinals.
At that time, in a playoff match against CJ Entus, when the set score was down 2 to 0, Bengi (Bae Seong-woong), who was not in good form, was replaced and succeeded in a reverse sweep.
This remains an unconventional and successful example of the hiring of a sixth man, to the point where it became a meme called ‘Tom Tom Beng Beng Beng.’
Afterwards, he showed success by substituting Bengi to win in the 2016 World Cup semifinals when he was down 2 to 1, and in 2017, he replaced Peanut (Han Wang-ho) and won in the World Cup semifinals.
What is especially noteworthy is that coach Kim Jeong-gyun achieved good results by using mid laners Faker and Lee Ji-hoon as sixth men when he was the coach of SK Telecom T1 (now T1) in 2015.
Coach Kim maximized synergy by increasing the competitiveness of the two players at the time by substituting them.
At the time, Faker was so competitive that he said in an interview for the finals, “It’s nice to win, but it’s a shame I can’t participate.”
In the end, they achieved the result of winning three championships this season, including LCK Spring, Summer, and Worlds.
As coach Kim Jeong-gyun has shown the extreme of the 'six man' strategy by using Lee Ji-hoon and Faker in the past, expectations are high on how he will use Faker and Chovy in this Asian Games as well.
At the e-sports national team selection ceremony held on August 29, Coach Kim revealed the criteria, saying, “We will determine selection based on practice data and physical condition.”
This is why it is expected that the player who will be the first starter in this evaluation match will continue to be a starting player.
Of course, since it is literally an evaluation match, there is a possibility that both players will be given the opportunity to participate.
