Deft: "Varje dag fick jag veta att jag inte skulle vinna Worlds "
ADC DRX Kim "Deft" Hyuk-kyu spoke out after winning the Worlds 2022. The player spoke about the experiences on the long road to the world championship.
After some time, I realized that everything that happened was not a dream.
Every day I was told that I could not win the Worlds. I'm tired, I've had surgery, I'm too old.
It took me 10 years to look back and tell them you were wrong.
I hope that my victory and the victory of my team will give hope to people who are going through more difficult times than me.
In the end, fortitude is the most important thing.
It was the most memorable year. You supported me, whether I deserved it or not, and this is the reason why this year has been the happiest of my life.
Thank you!
Deft is one of the oldest players in the competitive League of Legends. The newly-made world champion began his career in 2013.
