fake retirement ahh

this seems like a rlly good idea ngl

born and raised in canada

NT kub nong come back stronger

bring me back to shanghai fpx

you win. It doesn't look like the organisation is keen on employing more methods and resources to support the team. How S1mon feels singled out in the first place must indicate some lack of communication. Yeah, if you look at the WeChat messages, S1mon is still asking why he is benched. I suppose it is a different philosophy for them in managing a team, players are supposed to manage themselves, lol. For them, it's kind of like there are too many options to pick from, so they would rather bench a player than have to spend time helping that one player who requires some sort of special treatment. There are overwhelming expectations for this organisation, and it is the regular season right now.

I honestly can't say yes or no, so I'm not a reliable source of information. I vaguely remember he met Jieni on the opposing side in a ranked game on stream, and he says he needs to outperform him in that ranked game and something else that came off as a bit targeted/fueling some hate based on my impression of that video.

But there is definitely hate targeted at Jieni, and he didn't put a stop towards it, so I think he is definitely at fault here. The least I would do in his position would be to say that you shouldn't hate on the new kid, that's just some basic professionalism expected from a professional IMO, given he has a very impressionable young audience.
I DO think it was weird how they had the players fkin making statements in that way, and I kind of agree with you on that part, but all the obsessed fans want word from the players and want to gain insight so bad, maybe management feels pressured to do it this way.

What is your unbiased response to this situation, then
it's just impossible to provide a completely unbiased viewpoint without complete transparency

Can a view point not be biased is the real question tho

Imagine your teammate not trying to his best ability, not communicating in-game and telling his teammates and management after a bad game that he wants to be benched.

Then, after he gets benched, he frames EDG as the oppressor and directs all hate towards EDG and Jieni, an inexperienced and upcoming player; you know how brutal Chinese fans are. He leaks conversations with management, effectively lighting a fire under the organisation. They tell him they will help him find a team, but he doesn't stop this behaviour.
They have to put an end to this somehow, and there will be public outrage and concerns regarding "what happened to EDG S1mon, did EDG kick him so they can put all the blame on him?"
Thus, they decided to make statements explaining the situation. I agree; maybe it is too harsh to have every single person outright publicly complain and scold him, but they had to create a conclusion to this drama somehow.

I don't think he will be teamless for that long. He won the biggest Valorant event of 2024. Undoubtedly, some teams in China will still want to try him, especially since he has apologised. Also, he still seems to have maintained a decent relationship with the EDG players based on content from recent streams.

No

wolves to toronto

Regardless Tyloo is winning it all this year

its actually more likely to have less kills since there was only 14 rounds

oh my days

its 37k likes rn

lol imagine it's another verno event
but they all seem so honest and true about what they say
Literally everyone in the team sent a statement complaining about s1

S1mon was playing another game at the org, leading to dissatisfaction among the managers.
Aqua said that Jieni was initially a duelist player, so even if he has been playing poorly on init, he still works especially hard (implying S1mon doesn't work as hard)
EDG players made comments that if there were better substitutes for them, they would also be kicked off the team and that this is just the natural cycle of esports

my goat life?
