Bei dem was hier auf Twitter abgeht, sehe ich mich bald gezwungen, als Botschafter der Deutschen und Chinesen zu agieren. 😂
Muss auch mal sagen, dass egal mit wem ich in China spreche, sobald sie hören, dass ich aus Deutschland komme, sind immer alle sehr freundlich. 🙏🏻

from a great match yesterday to a shitshow today, deeply ashamed by our showing today
lets hope for a better next week, one more try
Since I got some messages from players who are thinking of transitioning to the coaching role because of the big 2027 VCT shuffle, I have some important messages and advice for you, because I did it myself before. I think some players are underestimating the change it will have on you.
Personally, for a really long time I had problems giving away my responsibility and letting players have more freedom, because I had the thought that losing is always my fault. I learned a lot from this.
First of all, no one is teaching you how to coach. I dont even want to know how many coaches pick an approach that ends up hurting the team or the players and leads to fighting and frustration, because there is no guide on how to be a good coach, especially how to handle all the different personalities at the same time. You need to find a way to communicate problems without hurting the players egos.
This transition is not easy at all. I was a pro player and IGL in CS and Valorant for more than 10 years, and the control you have as a coach is different from being in the server and playing yourselves.
It is actually a completely different feeling. You go from being able to personally fix a round in the moment, taking insanely ballsy decisions in big pressure moments, to preparing systems, explaining them clearly, managing different personalities, and then trusting that the players will actually apply it under pressure. Your experience gives you legitimacy, but it does not automatically teach you how to communicate, build trust, or create something the players buy into. Players need to believe in you too, not just respect that you used to play well before.
If they dont fully trust your ideas and how you lead, nothing you prepare will be trusted. A lot of people look at coaching during big roster shifts like 2027 simply because the player market feels uncertain, then realize the job is mostly preparation work, psychology, and getting people to improve.
Wins feel less personal and losses can hit harder because the responsibility sits with you. You could have stepped in and tried to fix it yourself in the timeouts. Timeouts are essentially all you have and the only real thing you can influence once a tournament match starts. The emotional side is a big part of it as well. Going from being in the server and feeling every round yourself to sitting behind the team and watching everything play out is a completely different kind of pressure and attachment.
If anyone is thinking about it and has some personal questions, feel free to reach out.
1-2 vs @EDG_Edward
Deserved loss and they played very well. Thats it.
Thanks for trust in me but I couldn't deliver.
Congratulations to @NovaEsportsTeam on winning everything and locking in #1 seed.
Your dominance across the entire Stage1 and the seeding match was undeniable.
I fucked up when I was coach, never adapted fast enough too the double duelist meta.
This result is fully deserved and I hope they can maintain their form in the playoffs.
and a big GZ to my boy @swagzorrr for getting the MVP, never doubted your insane talent ❤️
