[WBG vs All Gamers post-match interview]
Q: Was the Junker Queen comp something new you practiced after seeing that Doctrine was banned today?
WBG manager Cogito: To be honest, we watched some other teams' matches while we were waiting, and we thought we could play it, so we did.
Q: LeeSooMin hasn't played much Brig in the past. Was the Brig also just a last-minute pick for today, or did you practice it in scrims?
Cogito: After the meta changed in Week 3, we thought Brig was very strong. We got great results with Brig in scrims. Soomin's Brig is just too good.
Q: WBG suffered two consecutive losses recently. Do you think those losses happened more because you were underperforming or because the other teams played well?
Cogito: I think it's both, haha. It's true that a certain other team's Tracer player has very accurate Pulse Bombs. On the other hand, how should I say this -- we didn't manage to perform as well as we did in scrims. This week, we're playing with fury in our hearts.
Q: What was your thought process after learning today that Doctrine was banned?
Cogito: I feel like Kiriko is generally being played more right now, and Doctrine is like a substitute for Kiri. The meta has sort of returned to how it was back when Doctrine was released. If Kiri gets banned, then you consider other options like Ana or a Juno-Brig comp.
Q: Map 3 was the first time Paraiso was played in OWCS China this stage. It's famously a Winston map. Why didn't you play Winston here?
Cogito: We didn't have a lot of practice on that map in the new meta... Okay, we'd never practiced that map before. We talked about it and decided that we could still play Queen, since we were on a hot streak with Queen.
Q: Do you think this new meta benefits WBG?
Cogito: You can all see that our teamwork is better in this new meta than it was in the last one, but -- full disclosure, we shouldn't have been losing in the last meta either. [Interviewers laugh.] We're definitely going to be playing better now.
