South Korea defeats China to reach Asian Games LoL finals

Despite it being the toughest match of their tournament, the star-studded South Korean outfit defeated their rivals 2-0 to move one step closer to a gold medal.

"China is indeed a strong team," reflected Seo "Kanavi" Jin-hyeok on invenglobal.com.

"We had intense matches, and we managed to secure victories by the narrowest margins in every game. We put a lot of effort into researching what the opponent would pick and ban. We didn't get everything right, but we were about 90% accurate."

Head coach Kim "kkOma" Jeong-gyun added that the team must not lose focus.

"In the past, when we thought we had already won, we sometimes slipped," he said.

"We will prepare well until the end, and we won't let our guard down until we secure the gold medal."
