The coach is supposedly in discussions with numerous American and European organizations.

Before Valorant's release, Chet spent his time as a coach in Counter Strike. His greatest achievements were under NRG and Evil Geniuses Evil Geniuses North America Rank #20 supamen Phat Le bao Bao Nguyen dgzin Douglas Silva Paincakes Jake Hass zerona Javan Varela , winning four international titles and even earning EG a brief title as the best team in the world in 2019.

Among the initial batch of talent that migrated to Valorant back in 2020, Chet began his stay in North America with NRG Esports before rotating to TSM TSM Inactive Timotino Timothée Lavigne Dupont stand-in alvinboy Alvin Hong stand-in seven Johann Hernandez gMd Anthony Guimond vora Jordan Pulwer and then ENVY ENVY North America Rank #9 Eggsterr Evan Grady Demon1 Max Mazanov Rossy Daniel Abedrabbo keznit Angelo Mori GLYPH Conner Garcia , where his rise to fame amongst coaches kicked off.

His time spent with the Envy core of Pujan "FiNESSE" Mehta, Austin "crashies" Roberts, and Victor "Victor" Wong netted him a first, second, and third-place finish at all three majors of 2022. In terms of international results, his performances would set the bar for coaches and teams alike heading into 2023.

Unfortunately, last year's VCT season did not end as successfully as the previous one for Chet.

This year's results have plummeted yet again, with NRG failing to make both Masters events so far while only securing three victories throughout Stage 1. Numerous roster changes have affected the team, the most recent being swapping in FNS and Sam "s0m" Oh in place of Jimmy "Marved" Nguyen and Max "Demon1" Mazanov.

NRG have one more chance to qualify for Champions, the most realistic being a direct qualification through a run at playoffs.
