Following the official statement of KT Rolster, ex-KT ADC Kim'Deft'Hyuk-kyu and mid-laner Heo'PawN'Won-Seok also posted their personal statements on Facebook. Both of them did not only declare their departing from KT but also recalled their old-time and expressed sincere appreciation to the team, teammates, coaches and people who support them.





Deft's Post:





Hello everyone, I am KT's Deft. My contract with KT ended today and I have become a free agent





During the two years, I have created a lot of good memories on this excellent team. There are a lot of people I want to thank, I really want to thank my supervisor and coach who steadied me over the past two years whenever I was shaken by some external or in-game causes.





Next time, I will come with good news, thank you for supporting me.





PawN was inactive in June and July of 2018 and therefore wasn't present for the LCK 2018 Summer Playoffs or the Worlds 2018. He addresses this absence in his farewell Facebook post :





Hello everyone, I ended my two-year contract with KT and have become a free agent.





Thank you to my coach, supervisor, and KT staff during this period, and thank you to all the teammates. This year I didn’t play much because of personal reasons. I regret that I left KT without showing good performances. I’m very sorry to KT staff and agents, and also KT fans. I don’t know which team I will go to next year, but please send me lots of support. I personally have great ambitions for the 2019 season and am preparing for it seriously. I will definitely be back as a better me.

Before KT Rolster, both PawN and Deft played together on Samsung Blue, making it to the 2014 World Championship semi-finals. PawN was then briefly with Samsung White before they both joined EDG. Together, they made it to Worlds in both 2015 and 2016, won first place in MSI 2015 against SKT T1, and won first place in all the Demacia Cups they participated in. They joined KT Rolster in 2016 together and they won the 2017 KeSPA Cup and the LCK 2018 Summer Split.





It's not fair to call KT Rolster unsuccessful since they got the championship of LCK summer split, However, for a team which is meant to be the new king to take over the world from SKT, they haven't fulfilled their dream yet for two years.
