FlyQuest’s jungler Kacper ‘Inspired’ Słoma is preparing for his third Mid Season Invitational appearance with calm focus and a clear mindset. Ahead of his team’s Bracket Stage faceoff against LPL’s Anyone’s Legend, the experienced player shared reflections on his career and his approach to the tournament. Despite having more than eight years of professional League of Legends experience under his belt and competing in seven top tier international tournaments, Inspired remains refreshingly grounded.

FlyQuest will represent the Americas alone at this year’s MSI, following FURIA’s elimination during the Play In Stage. Their next match on July third will test their synergy and adaptability as they stand against powerhouse squads from LPL, LCK, EMEA, and LCP regions. For Inspired, however, competition is not about proving individual worth. It is about unity and the relentless pursuit of progress.

Speaking with Esports Insider, he made it clear that pride has no place in his preparation. He stated that he does not play for ego and that his goal is simply to perform as a cohesive team. His approach is rooted in trust and clarity. If the team functions as one, that should be enough to challenge even the most dominant rosters in the tournament.

The excitement is mutual when it comes to matchups. Inspired expressed enthusiasm about facing European rivals KOI and G2, igniting the familiar competitive flame between NA and EU.
Yet he is equally eager to test his mettle against Eastern teams like Gen.G, T1, AL, and BLG. His past experience against Gen.G at Worlds 2024, where FlyQuest was eliminated, served as a major lesson. It reminded him that no team is invincible. Despite their mechanical talent, Gen.G had moments of hesitation on stage that opened up opportunities, something Inspired believes teams must capitalize on at this level.

Beyond the matches, Inspired spoke about the challenges of preparing for MSI while based in North America. He pointed out that the region’s solo queue experience lacks the intensity and discipline found in Europe. He believes that over time, this makes a noticeable difference, especially for players who rely on these matches to polish champion pools and improve under pressure. For those spending years in NA like he has, adapting requires creativity and effort outside standard practice routines.

Because of these challenges, Inspired emphasizes the value of watching VODs from other professional teams and carefully analyzing champion strategies. With Fearless Draft limiting scrim flexibility, and solo queue offering inconsistent competition, studying gameplay footage has become an essential part of his preparation.

Despite these limitations, Inspired remains optimistic and focused. He is not overwhelmed by expectations or caught up in past results. He enters MSI with a mindset rooted in respect and belief that any team, no matter how decorated, can be beaten with the right strategy and execution.

FlyQuest’s journey through the MSI Bracket Stage will be closely watched by fans around the world. With Inspired leading the charge, the North American team hopes to bring a fresh and humble perspective to one of League of Legends’ most competitive stages. Whether it is through synergy, strategic awareness, or just pure grit, FlyQuest aims to make their presence count.
