Foreword: Khan players have retired, some time ago, his team DK held a retirement ceremony to bid farewell to Khan and leave the arena. Now, the player is interviewed, confiding in his LPL team, returning to the LCK feelings, and seems to want to "turn over the old account".
When Khan was in FPX, he got along well with several players in the team, and everyone said that his personality was trained in FPX, and after joining DK, he could quickly integrate into the team and become the big brother of other players. Now Khan said that he could not integrate into the LPL team, and the two experiences once made him think about retiring.
After retiring, Khan admitted that he could not be integrated into the LPL team before
The first time he joined the LPL, Khan came with a friend of Han Aid. He said he couldn't play at that time and kept ranking. Because Khan's score is very high, the team gives him nine thousand yuan a month, and the players are satisfied. He signed a three-year contract directly, only to find out the pit in it later, and never wanted to sign a long contract again.
Not long after coming to the LPL, Khan fell out with his Korean aid friends and was left alone in the team for two months. At that time, there were no other Korean aides around him, and he did not talk to anyone for a long time, and it was more difficult. After the end of S6, Khan renewed his contract, he was more satisfied with the salary of the team, but he did not expect that Khan was placed in the offseason, and the salary directly became one-tenth. At that time, Khan cried a lot and became a player who did not want the team. In desperation, he returned to LCK and found the right team again.
After leaving T1 for his second LPL experience, Khan received an invitation from FPX. After coming here, I found that it was not easy to integrate into the championship team, and the team's performance was not good but could not find the reason, and could only go with the flow. After the contract expired, Khan thought of retiring and not causing trouble for the team. But coach DK sincerely invited Khan, and he finally agreed to the buckle. Khan thought that his strength had been declining, but he did not expect that after going to DK, he slowly grew up and achieved good results.
The gap between DK and RNG and EDG is not large, and we should have been 1.5 last season
Finally, Khan lamented that the results of the game have a lot to do with the team environment. Not that the atmosphere at FPX is bad, it's just not for him. Khan doesn't think it's a problem with the other players or teams, but if he has to, it's that he can't fit into the team himself, resulting in their poor performance. The situation improved with going to DK, and Khan imitated Canyon's habits and quickly integrated into the new team.
Unfortunately, the s11 world DK still lost, and Khan regretted retiring. He thinks that the gap between DK and EDG and RNG is not so large, so their ranking should be higher than the second: in both games, we lost 2-3 to the opponent, just like the champion slipped on the goal. On this stage, strength is the most important factor, but the status of the day and the order of BO5 also have an impact. How could you lose two-to-three twice? In this case, we are not counting the second place, and we should be able to get a 1.5 place.
Retiring without a champion has always been Khan's regret. The runner-up position cannot be changed, but the players have a glimmer of expectation: both times they have failed, proving that the team has the strength to win the championship, but lacking a little luck or status. If this thought can make Khan feel better, it is not impossible.
summary
I personally understand what Khan means, but I don't agree, it's just a rhetoric of looking back and forth. E-sports only champions, no one will remember the second place, S11 season, DK team twice folded the final of the World Series, and both lost to the LPL team, can only say very regretful. And the champion is the champion, and in two different versions of the game, the LPL has been the strongest, and that's what we're capable of.
