On topic - does anybody have more context on the coach? SC2 coaches seem to have mixed results with LoL teams (see: Horang2 and SSG). OMG is looking like potentially the strongest team in China right now though, and if this works out it could be what pushes them over the edge.
CTU was definitely a really good team if you considered their amateur status, but they generally had names on their roster that went on to big teams, so who knows how much of an influence the coaching itself was. If I understand it correctly, this is more of a BW -> LoL -> CN LoL transition, and as far as BW to LoL transitions go, they've generally looked much better than their SC2 counterparts.
