I agree with evilfatsh1t, the link (and the stream they provide as proof) just says he has coaching offers, and he also has a meeting with T1 CEO. He does not say he has head coach offers, and he does not say what his meeting is about. Personally, I'm betting on either streamer position, or analyst (T1 needs someone to dictate their drafts, because they have been poor this split).

Just because you're biased against him doesn't mean he isn't getting approached for the opportunities. | ||

I feel like Reapered was the competitive advantage for C9 in NA. Now, I'm ready for mediocrity. Here's to hoping Reapered lands on a great team like T1 or some Chinese team or something. | ||

Now I get to see if Parth is willing to make the easiest coaching hire of his life. | ||

It would be more of an issue if they had wildly difference stances. You really mean to tell me he's gotten 9+ offers for head coach/coach positions and the T1 head just so happens to be meeting with him for tea and cookies? Of course he's being considered for a coach/head coach position there. I do agree that a head coach offer from T1 might be a bit above what he's qualified for, but he's certainly getting those kind of offers Just because you're biased against him doesn't mean he isn't getting approached for the opportunities. he may as well be getting approached with opportunities as head coach, but it wont be from t1. anyone whos seen his streams, casts or anything else he does or says will know hes just not of the calibre. as has been pointed out, head coaching has less to do with coaching and more to do with man management. ls would get laughed out of the room by the players and staff if he was to manage the team. he is probably the most ill equipped out of any "coach" in the scene to manage a team, let alone a high profile one like t1 | ||

Of course both articles say the same thing, that's the point of journalism, to report facts. Most esport 'news' is little more than a rumor mills and sensationalizes casual remarks from anyone in the scene. The article you sent is a whole 7 paragraphs about 1 minute of things LS said. It directly cites 2 sentences, and the rest is information padding about who LS is. Articles like that are exactly why I don't bother reading most esport news, it's akin to tabloid trash or yellow press, however you want to call it. There is no difference between this kind of article and what you can read in reddit comments, it's all speculation based on very little information. | ||

And yeah I usually agree that a lot of esports "news" is actually filler bullshit, this are pretty good exceptions to that rule. Its the facts of the situation (he's been getting offers to coach/head coach from all major regions), the fact that he's meeting with T1, and his past as the BBQ coach. That's shockingly solid journalism for the esports world tbh | ||

Having LS as a manager is close to the most horrible thing I can imagine. I also dont even think he'd be that great of an analyst for a real top tier team. We're talking about a guy who is still convinced Fire Drake is better on mages than it is on ADC's. | ||
