Worlds 2020 Champions DAMWON Gaming have just announced that they will be signing former SKT T1 coach Kkoma as their new coach. Here is their announcement:
Damwon Gaming signing Kkoma as new coach – Why?
With the recent news of Head Coach “Zefa” and coach “Daeny” transferring to T1, DAMWON were left without coaches, and who better than Kkoma? He has won multiple championships, featuring the 2015 and 2016 World Championships, and has been established as one of the best LCK coaches.
Recently, he has parted ways with Vici Gaming after a disappointing 2020. With them, they ended 9th in the Spring Split, and 11th in the Summer Split. Results that Kkoma is not familiar with at all, so it was natural for him to depart the roster and search for something better. The team will definitely benefit from Kkoma’s coaching experience moving forward, quite possibly replicating the performance they had in 2020!
What’s next for DAMWON and Kkoma?
Initially, rumors were stating that he would be returning to the T1 roster; however, with T1’s recent additions that is no longer a possibility. We’ll have to wait and see how the World Champions adapt to their new coach, and how they will perform heading into the 2021 season.
