As LCK Summer Split's regular season is over, teams get prepared for the playoffs of the event. But the summer is still heated for DWG KIA, as their fans released a detailed statement on the behavior of head coach Yang “Daeny” Dae-in, who has been under criticism for quite some time now. The news are reported by InvenGlobal.

According to the community, the problem is that the coach does not deliver ideas to improve the overall performance of the team and oftentimes avoids attending interviews and talking about the problems and solutions for the current vision. The 4 points described by fans read the following: 

1. The continued nonsensical drafts that left the fans, as well as the experts in the scene unable to understand them.

2. The current direction of the team is contrary to how the other teams play the game, which is the same as how DWG KIA played in the past.

3. Due to the head coach forcing his unique philosophies of the game to the team’s gameplay, the team continued to display disorder in their gameplay, resulting in continued losses.

4. The head coach continued to decline interviews on the matches they lost, which led to the players having to explain why they lost; even in the interviews that he did himself, he shifted all the blame on the players, resulting in mental pressure for the players.

The community suggests that other coaching members like Lee “Zefa” Jae-min and Athletic Director for DWG KIA, Kim “kkOma” Jeong-gyun are capable of restating the fame and form of the club, which has lost some of its fanbase due to the reduced productivity of both the content team and LCK team. Lastly, the compliant asserts:

We demand that the DWG KIA management provides a solution to such a lack of communication, with a detailed plan on how they’ll do so. Furthermore, we demand that they discard the current one-sided form of communication, and that the DWG KIA executives actually answer the questions that the fans have, pool opinions together, and provide the opportunities for mutual communication.
