G2 Caps on Staying in Europe and Winning Worlds
Caps’ Commitment to Europe Despite LPL and LCK Opportunities
G2 Esports’ mid-laner Caps has considered opportunities to play in the LPL or LCK, the dominant regions in League of Legends. However, he remains committed to competing in Europe. Caps aims to win the Worlds Championship with a European team, believing it would be more rewarding than joining an already established powerhouse in South Korea or China.
The Temptation of LPL and LCK
Caps acknowledges the allure of the LPL and LCK, noting that teams in these regions are highly dedicated and put significant effort into their performance. He finds the idea of playing in such an environment appealing. However, he is proud of the progress and hard work his team in Europe has put in over the past year and a half. The push to bring glory to Europe remains his top priority.
Challenges and Learning Opportunities
Despite the rigorous competition in Europe, Caps admits that playing against LPL and LCK mid-laners could offer valuable learning experiences. He mentioned that facing these players regularly would be beneficial and potentially make the path to winning Worlds easier. However, he believes that staying in Europe and achieving success there would be more fulfilling.
The Easier Path vs. The Right Path
Caps is aware that joining a top-tier team in the LPL or LCK might be seen as taking an easier route to win Worlds. He feels it would undermine the challenge and satisfaction of achieving the same goal with a European team. This perspective underscores his dedication to his current team and region.
Determination to Win Worlds
Despite the dominance of South Korean and Chinese teams in the League of Legends esports scene, Caps remains determined to win the Worlds title with G2. He has been a leading figure in European esports for years and continues to strive for the ultimate prize. His confidence and dedication to his team and region drive him to keep competing at the highest level.
Caps’ journey and commitment to Europe highlight his belief in the potential of his team and the European region. As Worlds 2024 approaches, his focus remains on bringing the championship title home to Europe, standing firm against the easier path and aiming for the ultimate glory.
