It was tough. Since NORTHEPTION, FENNEL, and RIDDLE ORDER, I was able to win 3 years in a row because I had good members and good coaches. I think IGL has become the strongest.
Comment from Seoldam (@SeoldamTwit )
I am the happiest I've ever been in my life and I can't express how happy I am. The team is well-balanced, we have the best IGL in the world, everyone is mentally strong after 2 losses in a row, and we are the best team.

This is my first offline win so it's great. I thought the clutch of bindings and shot calling stung. Unanimous MVP is me.

I was so happy I couldn't stop crying. I am so happy to win with this team.
Comment from yatsuka (@yatsuka_07 )
I am very happy! I always tried to greet and thank the team even if the team scrimmage didn't go well. I am happy to win because I definitely wanted to win with this team.
Coach Vorz (@v6rzu ) commented
We had a bad start today and made some mistakes at first, but I enjoyed watching them behind the scenes. I thought everyone grew as human beings as well as in their play. The basics were missing, where it's an offline tournament so things don't go as usual. It was a good result of fighting from MAP3 as a team instead of individually. I think we can win VCT Ascension Pacific Tokyo if we do well.
