During the post-2023 Worlds transfer window, T1 is one of the few teams in the LCK that has retained its lineup for the upcoming season. Meanwhile, strong teams like Gen.G, KT Rolster (KT), Dplus KIA (DK), and Hanwha Life Esports (HLE) have undergone significant personnel changes. Specifically, KT has even recruited 3 players from the 2022 DRX roster, including Pyosik, Deft, and BeryL.

Recently, KT’s coach Hirai shared some noteworthy insights about the team’s transfer period. Specifically, Pyosik and Deft were among the players who quickly reached agreements to join KT right after the conclusion of the 2023 Worlds. Subsequently, it was Deft who suggested that the team acquire BeryL to nurture hopes of winning the championship or at least defeating T1.

“We often discuss with players about the goals for the upcoming year, such as winning the championship or defeating T1. When talking to Deft, he confirmed that KT really needs BeryL to achieve those goals. BeryL is the type of player for major matches. He is not afraid or falters even in finals,” Coach Hirai shared with the media.

Indeed, in recent years, BeryL has always been a highly regarded Support player in the LCK region. The fact that this player has won the world championship in two different jerseys is enough to prove BeryL’s caliber. Furthermore, his excellent team-calling ability and calmness in major matches are incredibly valuable qualities.
With the successful recruitment of BeryL, KT is undoubtedly aiming for better results in the upcoming 2024 season. This team suffered bitter defeats in the 2023 LCK Summer qualifiers and at Worlds. The addition of experienced players like BeryL promises to help KT perform better in major matches.

Remember that Deft, BeryL, and Pyosik once brought sorrow to the current T1 lineup at the 2022 Worlds, creating a memorable and miraculous journey. Therefore, the “rivalry” among the players will make the “Telecom Wars” in the 2024 season incredibly exciting.
