I'm not saying them going into desperation mode is good or bad, merely that it's bad that they have gotten to this point. A lot of failure has to take place for an established team to reach this. We saw that happen in CLG where Hotshot, an emotional person without good leadership skills or business sense was handling their reigns. He rightfully(willingly or not) delegated his operation to people that could handle this aspect.

This is even more worrying now if true. When a manager leaves his operation it shouldn't fall to pieces, if it does that just speaks volumes to the ability of the manager himself. The systems should be in place that in the short term nothing changes if that person vanishes. | ||

Too often you see people just firing individuals in management without actually solving the problem which just leads to a collapse. TL has been failing for over a year now(Could make a case for the entirety in LoL), which means they have to figure why this is the case and then take steps to solve it. These steps could involve removal and often do. I'm not saying them going into desperation mode is good or bad, merely that it's bad that they have gotten to this point.

Note the changes are still pending at Riot. This can't be real. I mean I know it is but it just can't. I agree with whoever said it in the article, they needed a change but this just sounds insane | ||

That might be a career ender right there. Tbh I did not think it was THAT bad. And their bot lane had problems as well. I always thought TL put way too much trust into Piglet but oh well. | ||

http://as.com/esports/2017/02/27/league_of_legends/1488215984_412848.html#english-version Peke trying to play mid again, probably not well practiced at all. Nae-Hyun going to support without any experience while Hiva is benched. Wisdom benched as well and they signed "Cinkrof" from Baskonia as new jungler. And now according to the article this guy does not even want to play for OG anymore because they play so bad, so now it is open who they have. Yeah, it is almost comical how bad this is. | ||

Coach Ssong stops coaching at longzhu (original member of Najin Sword in 2012) From google translate I could decipher that the contract was terminated with mutual agreement, so that could mean anything. | ||

And their bot lane had problems as well. I always thought TL put way too much trust into Piglet but oh well. I don't think it's especially desperate. Piglet has always been a carry-style player, and the easiest position to carry from nowadays is mid. He's also a playmaker ADC in a meta in which botlane ADCs just poke and you actually get more playmaking from midlane hybrid ADCs like Corki. If there was ever a meta for Piglet to play in the midlane, this is it. As to Goldenglue, his results speak for themselves, and I see him as easily the weakest midlaner for these past 5 weeks in the NA LCS. He's been mediocre at best and terrible at worst, so you don't need a Bjergsen or a Jensen to improve upon that. | ||
