HyperST 2015-07-19 01:23:13

In the second match of LPL today, OMG completely defeated M3 in a 2:0 victory. We were left with profound memories of Xiyang’s top Nunu. We interviewed Xiyang after the match. He revealed Uzi’s injury to our reporters: "His hands usually become uncomfortable after playing a long time. He wants some time to rest.”

Q: Why did you pick top Nunu in the first game?

A: Nunu is strong against Gnar in lane. Gnar cannot do anything against his snowball or pressure him in lane.

Q: When did you guys first discover this champion?

A: I played against a Nunu as Gnar one time in solo queue just like this. Therefore, I decided to try it out and discovered that it was pretty good.

Q: Many top laners have said in the past that they wanted to try top Nunu, but no one dared to bring him out in competitive games. Why did you have the courage to play him?

A: It depends on the team comp. Plus, Nunu is easy to lane with. That’s why I picked him.

Q: You have transitioned into the top lane for a while now. What did you do during that time?

A: Mostly I just practiced a lot and watched streams/vods.

Q: It must be hard to transition to the top lane as a support player, right?

A: It’s not bad playing top lane. Actually, playing support was harder. (laughs)

Q: What position do you usually play in solo queue?

A: Mostly only top laners. When I used to play mid lane in solo queue, I wouldn’t ask for mid if I was last pick. But now I started to demand for my position more because I want to practice top lane.

Q: OMG has already gone through a few cycles of roster change. In Demacia Cup you performed decently, can you explain to us why OMG’s record started to improve?

A: Number one is team cooperation/synergy, then it’s team communication. We always discuss what we did wrong after our games, which helps us improve faster.

Q: Uzi has not appeared on stage for a while now. Can you reveal to us what he has been doing? Is it because he doesn’t want to go on stage?

A: His hands usually become uncomfortable after playing a long time. He wants some time to rest.

Q: So he won’t play in any upcoming matches?

A: Maybe not, we will have to see his condition.

Q: Lastly, tell us about OMG’s goal this season.

A: The goal is always to qualify for S5 Worlds.
