![]() One that carries the weight of a coach who not only is supremely confident in his knowledge but also knows his players think the same way. In this position, recognize the strength of your opponents and back away, there’s no need to pick a fight here,” then pauses. ![]() Instead, he says, "I think, your only focus should be on this area. Having never heard a coach review a game with his team before, my first instinct is that he’ll launch straight into what happened, begin breaking down and pulling apart every nuance of the game. When he finally moves to speak, the room immediately softens. Minutes pass with Reapered simply listening with that same quiet intensity I observed when he was watching the game. This dialogue continues between Sneaky and primarily Impact and Jensen, continuing for minutes about how they could’ve approached situations differently, with the conversation flowing as freely as you’d expect from a group of elite players. While I think the difficulty of having non-English speaking staff or players is massively outweighed by the benefits of strong personnel, according to Robin, the translation isn’t even strictly necessary, it’s just more accurate and significantly faster, evident in just how efficient and democratic this whole process seems.Ĭontinuing the discussion, the team’s 24-year-old ‘veteran’, AD carry Zach “Sneaky” Scuderi begins a back and forth, offering his alternative to what happened in the game and how, from his perspective, things could’ve played out differently.
