Although he himself declared that the 2023 season was a ‘failed season’, he still showed off his competitiveness and showed off his health.
As his career progressed, ‘Deft’ was qualified to tell those who told him “you can’t win”, “It’s over after injury”, “You’re too old”, etc. to be wrong, and confidently proved it with results. Now, for one final proof, he grabbed the mouse once again.
On the 8th, we had a face-to-face interview with KT Rolster player Kim ‘Deft’ Hyuk-gyu, who decided to enlist in active duty at the end of the 2024 season.
hello. This is Kim ‘Deft’ Hyeok-gyu, the long-distance dealer for KT Rolster.
– How did you spend your vacation and off-season?
This season, I felt very distracted and distracted, so I concentrated on solo queue.
– If we look back on the year 2023
When the year ended, I had a lot of regrets and I personally thought my form was not good. The good thing about him was that he learned a lot by playing with players he wanted to play with before.
– It is no exaggeration to say that 2022 will be divided between ‘Deft’ and 2023 between ‘Faker’. How did you feel while watching the performance of your classmate ‘Faker’?
I thought it was great. It was in the same place in 2022, but it has come down a lot this year. Seeing ‘Faker’ still climbing so high gave me a lot of positive inspiration and made me think that I could do the same.

– I saw a preview of a meal with players ‘Gala’ and ‘Scout’ in an interview last summer season. Was the three-way meeting held?
(At Worlds) I left so quickly that I couldn’t eat separately. And because our schedules were tight, I think we didn’t get to see each other often.
– The Deft player ‘Rhubarb X’ meme was a hot topic among fans. Were you aware of it?
I didn’t think much of it and thought, ‘Why is my expression like that?’
– I came back to KT. What drew you to it?
I knew that the coach placed great importance on an atmosphere of hard work, and he wanted a team like that, so we were a good fit. And when we formed the members, the most important thing was that it seemed like it would be fun.
– I was the youngest during the 1st KT period. Now that you are the eldest hyung, how does it feel and do you have any memorable memories from your KT days?
It’s been a while since I became the eldest, so I don’t feel anything special. He seems to have done a lot of unusual things during his KT days. These days, he spends his time playing scrims and solo queue on his own during vacation, but back then, he had fun playing soccer and running on the playground on days after losing games.

– In 2022, the Walls Trio (‘Deft’, ‘Pyosik’, and ‘Beryl’) reunited. I’m curious about your feelings. And what did they talk about?
Since we were on different teams for a year, I felt that even though we won the championship together, we had different perspectives on the game. I felt like it was a process of putting it back together again.
– Thoughts on reuniting with ‘Hirai’ director Kang Dong-hoon
I think it’s fortunate that the director is still the same person I thought of.
– What kind of person do you think BDD is when they first join together as a team?
There are reassuring and delicate aspects to the in-game side. It’s fun and I think it does a good job of keeping the team spirit going outside of the game.
– What is the overall season preparation process and team chemistry like?
Since I haven’t been able to scrim much, I feel like I’m still learning about the map, and I think I’ve figured out the meta to a certain extent.
– What kind of player do you think ‘Perfect’, the new rookie called up to the top line, is?
He has a gentle personality so it doesn’t show much, but he seems to be a very greedy player. So he seems like a player who has no choice but to become better.

– The changes in the canyon are significant. How do you feel about playing the game and how will it affect the bottom line?
From the Blue Team’s perspective, there is no significant change in the laning stage. From the red team’s perspective, it was originally difficult to take the lead due to the ban pick structure, but there are many inconvenient factors when losing control of the map.
If you don’t have control over the mid jungle, you’ll likely end up in a situation where it’s easy to get dived.
– The bottom duo that is expected to face off in the spring season is
I am looking forward to the Hanwha bottom duo. ‘Viper’ is an explosive player, and ‘Delight’ is also a player who can easily overcome lane battles or is smart, so I think we will have good synergy.
– After the season, you will perform your national defense duties. Do you have any plans after discharge from the military?
The game LoL changes too much every year. I don’t have any specific plans, but my personal wish would be to be able to become a professional gamer even after returning from military service.
– 2024 season goals and a word to fans
My goal is to have a year where I can confidently say to my fans, ‘This was the best.’ I will work hard, so I hope my fans will enjoy the process as well.
