“AKM played Genji in scrims, because I was ‘told’ by KyKy that I clouded the team atmosphere during past games, and showed a less mature form because I got mad. After that, me and Harryhook were excluded from scrims.
What I’m ‘really’ mad and frustrated about is this: KyKy saying that I just “suddenly decided not to play”? This is completely wrong.
If you look at our schedule our match vs Florida was on the 11th, the match vs Boston on the 15th. During that period AKM was the one participating in scrims, and I never got the chance to participate, along with Harry. We only did ranked and etc. So I could never know what kind of comps they were planning. I wasn’t even invited to spectate in scrims. If they decided not to play me like that I’m pretty sure they would have had time to practice comps that didn’t involve Genji.
If they were going to use Genji, then it makes me think that they used Genji knowing beforehand that AKM was going to play it. So in other words, I had no idea AKM was practicing Genji until game day. Although things didn’t work out on the the match day, I thought it was just unlucky because AKM is also an excellent player. We just thought we had to practice harder and play better.
But in AKM’s discord he mentioned that he wanted me to say sorry. From my perspective, I was forbidden from playing the matches, because I wasn’t allowed in scrims. So I had no idea AKM was going to receive direct messages from fans and be hated like that due to his discomfort on playing Genji. If I knew there was a problem like that I would have personally announced that there was an internal problem in our team and that I was taken out from the match to fans, and apologized to AKM.“

“I asked KyKy exactly what was the cultural difference that I tried to force on the other players. He told me that in Western teams they have more leisure, and rest more, and do games when they need to play. And he told me not to force the Korean hard work ethic onto the other players.
The thing is, I didn’t tell the other players not to rest and keep playing games. What I said was: yes, there might be a difference between our culture regarding tryharding, but waiting for the problems to fix themselves, and trying our best to actively solve the problems is not a cultural difference issue, but just a matter of professionalism.
I thought that looking at our results recently, regardless of our tryharding, if needed, we had to practice harder. Because imo we had no time for leisure (looking at our performance)…………”

“When the AKM news was out I went to him and apologized. I told him I had no idea you were suffering this much, and didn’t know that you were forced on Genji and you didn’t have the confidence to play the hero and was hated for it, and also sorry for apologizing late. He also told me he was sorry for making this public and making it controversial.
We reconciliated and got along again, saying that we can work together, and use AKM’s hitscan / EFFECT’s Tracer / my Genji and produce good results. So you don’t need to worry about that (our relationship). As for apology, there this thing. I know I am in the process of learning English. Since I can only communicate in simple words, sometimes it is very hard to convey meanings. Things just don’t end with ‘sorry!’. So I think there was an issue with that too. I hope I can come back next stream playing games happily. I don’t want bad rumors/gossips going around. Thank you.”
