    It’s not looking great for C9. They might need to change out their coach or something. On paper, their team seems amazing. They’ve been doing well, granted, but not dominating like I thought at the beginning of the split. That usually indicates a coaching issue in my mind.

      I agree, it’s been frustrating to see people act like suddenly the players are bad. The identity that coaching seems to have picked (and maybe players too) is kinda awful. “win lane, win game” but like lane doesn’t actually win you the game, you can’t just draft for lane and ignore your ability to do anything together as a team after that. It felt like we’ve constantly seen drafts that are all carries, or have no engage, and they’ve completely refused to just put fudge on a tank.

      It feels like throughout the split they’ve had a very “we had the right idea, we just executed poorly” attitude, but if the idea was win lane win game they often executed well, thats just an awful strategy that won’t win you games
