An incredible show from start to finish, you're always a showman. How did it feel to go from the NA fans cheering "Fuck you, apEX" to just "apEX"?

It feels good. It feels that in a way, I'm in their heart, and I'm really proud of that. It's been a long Major, it's been a long six months. What we managed to do is unbelievable and I never dreamed of it. I never dreamed to have such a crazy season and we did it. I'm really proud of my guys and my staff. It's amazing to win the Major.

Third Major for you, but this was maybe the most comprehensive win of them all. Six or seven months of complete domination, but I talked to XTQZZZ a few minutes ago and I asked him if he thought your era started now and he said no. Do you think it's an era yet?

Of course it is, seven trophies in a row. It's for sure one team's best six months ever. I think it is an era, but maybe six months is not enough. I don't know, I don't really care. People can judge it, I just want to win.

We're going to see you take a short break to celebrate the win. You're going to be heading back into action after the summer player break for Cologne and EWC. Should teams be afraid of you after the player break?

Maybe, let's see. The sure thing is that we are going to have to work harder and harder to be able to win. If we do it properly, I think people should still be scared of us.
