JDG had long been highly regarded as one of the stronger teams of the LPL. Today, they were able to show that against RW in a 2-1 series with a lot of back-and-forth action. The JDG press conference features team members discussing how they were able to make a comeback in game 3 and the major differences between their 2 Junglers, Levi and Flawless.









Q: [To LvMao] In game 3 when you had 2 inhibitors taken, what were you saying to the team?

LvMao: I said not to worry because our team composition was the way it is. So we stayed the calm and knew if they were careless, they would lose.

Q: [To Levi] How are you learning Chinese and what is your favorite Chinese?

Levi: I am learning from my team through the game and through the translator. His favorite Chinese saying is “I'm coming!”

Q: [To Imp] You were once teammates with Homme in 2013. Now that you are coach and player, how would you rate Homme's coaching?

Imp: We are both older. He is as angry as before, and I must work hard to not make him angry.

Q: [to Flawless] Why did you tunnel on Killua, especially in game 3?

Flawless: For revenge.

Q: [To Yagao] Where did you win out today?

Yagao: In terms of experience. I thought both teams didn't coordinate too well but we won due to experience.

Q: [To Coach] in game 2, you picked Ryze and they banned Irelia and you chose Zoe. Did you think Ryze would do well or did you pick it according to their ban? Once they banned Irelia, did you think what kind of Champion they would pick?

Coach: Both our Top and Mid can play Ryze well, so it was a flex pick.

Q: [To Imp] How are you adapting to JDG in terms of life and playing? Which teammate are you close with and helped you integrate the most?

Imp: Everyone treats me well. I’m close with LvMao because we lane together. This is my first game in a year and I was a bit nervous. I will try to adjust.

Q: [To LvMao] You played very well in the last game and picked off Fiddlesticks. Did you think you would make a comeback?

LvMao: Their team composition make it look like they are ahead but we were ahead in terms of gold so as long as we play teamfights well, we would win.

Q: [To Levi] How does it feel to play on the LPL stage for the first time?

Levi: The same as playing on other stages for the first time.

Q: [To Imp] Why did you continue to play professionally for so many years and what is your goal for this year?

Imp: It's because League of Legends is fun and I didn't lose interest in this game. My goal is to play to my full potential again.

Q: [To Coach] Can you please rate both Junglers?

Coach: Levi made some mistakes so wasn't able to perform to his full abilities. Flawless won so he did well for sure.

Q: [To Zoom] Do you think Urgot is more suitable in the Mid or Top lane?

Zoom: I think he's better top. He can't play against many Champions in mid, only Champions like Galio. In the top lane, he can play against many different Champions.

Q: [To Yagao] This is still the mid-centric meta, how are you playing with both Junglers in terms of playstyle, what are different about them?

Yagao: I think Flawless helps me more and I would help Levi more.

Q: [To Yagao] Which Midlaner would you like to play against next?

Yagao: It doesn't matter, I'll play against whoever.
