今年是北美最古老的邪教CLG在经过了S2以后最好的一年,但正当
大家以为持续许久的"false hope"传说不会再现之际,世界赛第二周
北美 0-10 的惨况,而就在世界后,几个月来,CLG的繁荣盛景,就宛
如一场梦幻泡影。
首先是中路Pob被下放候补,改由huhi先发,Pob也传出即离开CLG
的消息,如今率领整个CLG团队斩获今年丰硕战果的总教练 Chris Ehrenreich
竟然也遭到释出。不同于C9和TSM的团队始终存在问题,在CLG经历最好
的一年之后,如此大动作的挥刀斩功臣之举,相当令人费解。
随着新闻发布后,Chris本人也在TwitLonger发表了离队声明:
I'm sad to announce that on October 14th I was released as head coach for
Counter Logic Gaming's League team. I know it may seem out of nowhere but I
want to make it clear I wouldn't be willing to put this statement out myself
if I didn't respect their decision in the matter. I think CLG may love its
fans more than any organization in the scene. They've made this decision
knowing full well it may not look like the "right call" in the public eye. I
think that is powerful; it takes immeasurably strong character to do.
我很难过的宣布我已经在10/14被释出了CLG总教练的职位,我知道
这可能相当唐突,但我想澄清如果我不愿尊重他们这个决定,我不会发
布这则声明。我认为CLG热爱他们的粉丝远胜其他的组织。尽管他们已经
做出的这个决定,在大众眼里看来可能并不是一个正确的Call。我相信
这个决定意义非凡,它需要无比的坚强才能办到。
(后四段自己看,我没空翻完,大意是自己违背了CLG的期待...等等)
I cannot understate the amazing experience I had working with the team. It is
still surreal thinking about how far the team has come and sharing the moment
of celebrating our months of hard work at The Garden is something I will
never forget. Getting there, however, was not an easy task. I've learned a
lot about what it takes to function as a coach in eSports during my time with
CLG, and there are things I wish I could have done better. After talking with
management we agreed that I did not live up to the expectations, independent
of results, that the organization set out for my position at the beginning of
the split. It would be mutually beneficial for myself and the team to part
ways as my presence on the team would be a detriment to the team's future.
There were several reasons that led to this decision, but the primary one was
my failure to conduct myself as a coach in line with CLG’s and my own
standards. In the end I breached the trust of both the organization and the
team.
I once heard it said that it is more important to live one sermon well than
to speak a thousand eloquently. I find this meaningful because, especially in
eSports, the public often only gets to see the well spoken sermons. The
carefully groomed and manicured promotion videos. They rarely get a glimpse
of what lays on the cutting room floor, which makes it hard to hold
perspective on the real people - and as one of them I can say we are as prone
to mistakes and failure as anyone. I’ve always explained to the team that
many of these experiences should be esoteric. They belong to the team and the
team alone. This was one of the first lessons I attempted to impart when I
entered the house, and I hope to live that sermon as I depart.
Finally, despite my short tenure with the organization I will always remain
proud of my time with the players and I will not be surprised as they
continue to grow and succeed next split. Being given charge of the growth of
those young men will have been one of my life's greatest honors. I appreciate
the players for buying in and working hard, I appreciate the fans and people
in the scene who felt they saw my positive impact on the team, and I will
especially always be grateful to CLG for the opportunity to work with such a
talented organization. With this experience I’ve had the opportunity to grow
and learn alongside the players, and will definitely be carrying those
lessons forward as I am still very passionate about working with players and
teams.
