TES has Xiaobai (AL 2025) as their substitute coach on loan from JDG.
AL on the other hand lost their main drafting coach Despa1r (TES 2024, Weibo 2025) to visa issues and now they're stuck with BigWei, responsible BLG's years of unplayable drafts.
Unfortunately I predicted it

‼️Never tell s1mple your veto plans — learn from Kane’s mistakes:
«Before veto, I approached s1mple. He asked which map we’d play. I said, “Let’s settle it on Mirage, like the good old days.” I came back to veto, and Mirage was already ban» — Kane

Coming from a trad sports background, where in the NFL they scout routes to sit on them, baseball they scout ways pitchers hold the ball to know the next pitch, and hockey players tendencies to shoot blocker/glove. It's the BARE minimum to do pattern recognition.

Thorin on fans' double standards when judging Falcons' coaching decisions:
"People made fun, even people on this show of those two things where like Lars Robl wanted m0NESY to wake up earlier, and the worst one ever was when they did a no PC bootcamp, remember that idea? 'What idiots they are.' Here's what people don't know, Astralis and Vitality won the Majors, they did no PC bootcamps too, and that was literally one of their main strategies as a team, because the idea of the no PC bootcamp was actually to build like team bonding and things like that and have exercises where you communicate, and it was actually things that have been very successful in the history of Counter-Strike, so all I'm making the point there is, people when zonic fails tell him he did nothing, but when he did the exact same things that succeeded he supposed to be the greatest coach of all time."

Ofc the Asian champions get fucked with their draws. What's new? The GenG-HLE match can have enormous consequences for the bracket.
Imagine going 3-0 and getting GenG in the quarters!

We hear much of old people being bigoted in their antiquated ideas. It has always been my experience that the young are much more bigoted in their new ideas.
s1mple hasn't been the best player for four years bit nobody has a hold over fans like him. There will never be another like this.

kyousuke would get no criticism on MOUZ or FUT, Thorin believes. His problem is playing for a Falcons team that has to win now ‼️
"i think that as a result though he's in the wrong team like if he was in a team if he was on MOUZ or FUT none of us would complain about this player we'd all go what a fucking great player let's see how he develops that i agree though this is where you have a point though pimp if you are NiKo and zonic and m0NESY and karrigan you have to win now or everyone is mad at you"
