If you had wondered where Violet had disappeared to, wonder no more. He's the new Envyus LoL Coach

Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

So he basically stops competing in SC2. No wonder he didn't play any tournaments this year.

Best of luck to Violet on the new job.

But they imported Nisqy from Europe for the next split and he has some real talent.

Nice. I was really wondering what he was up to.

Cool to see that he can stay with EnVy in a new positiong. Good luck!

EnVy should pick up a new sc2 player though. There are still teamless players with good chances of making it to BlizzCon.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I wonder how those people who never played at competitive LOL could become LOL coaches ? Like MC before, and now Violet.

No, they went to relegation last split and just barely managed to stay in NALCS. MC coaching a LCK team dident help much either. Kongdoo got relegated. As for other SC2 players going to League StarDust is H2K assistant coach. PartinG is around diamond "mmr" level player.

Keeping your players on-point & focused is generally most of the job of a coach. That's where the pro-player experience tends to be most valuable. It's also true in most other sports that the mid-tier players go on to make the better coaches, so it's not all too surprising.

I'm glad he's doing well.

They're just trying to find the next coach kKoma....ex SC/SC2 player spent some time on oGS. He is currently the undisputed best coach in league and his success will probably never be matched once he retires.

Grats on the new job! Sad to see him stop playing StarCraft over the last year or so, but good luck and have fun, Violet!

I wonder if he'll be getting his team in the gym every week. xD

He retired early enough ( when sc2 was top so he switched more for passion than money i guess ), not a lot of catching up, if violet never played LoL before 2017 he has way more heroes, timings meta etc to learn + no passion i dont think it's possible to be a good coach then
