On March 12th (KST), KT Rolster defeated ROX Tigers 2-0 in the first matchup of Day 30 LCK Spring Split 2017, cementing their position at second place. Game 1 ended quickly because of Dongbin "Score" Ko's Graves, and while Game 2 was a closer match, it eventually ended in KT Rolster's favor.

Although not as spectacular as other laners, Saehyung "Mata" Cho did everything that he needed to do for his team as Zyra in Game 1 and Lulu in Game 2.

Here is our interview with Saehyung "Mata" Cho.

Congratulations on winning today's match! How are you feeling right now?

We haven't been doing well lately, but I'm glad that we were able to show how much we've improved.

ROX Tigers were on a four-match winning streak. How did you prepare against them?

Our preparation was focused on our playmaking rather than countering the opponent's strategy.

Can you be more specific about what you've prepared?

We tried to minimize our mistakes and improve teamwork.

You've banned Ahri in both games. Was it because of Youngmin "Mickey" Son?

We banned Ahri because Mickey has been doing too well with her.

You'll be playing two more matches within a week from now - once against JAG in 14th and another against SSG in 16th. How do you think they will be?

I won't be tired physically, but I'm worried about the mental fatigue.

Thank you for your time. Is there anything else you want to share?

I don't think it will be possible for us to take first place, but we'll make sure that we hold on to second place until the playoffs. If we meet SK Telecom T1 again in the playoffs, we will have our revenge.
