There were several reasons that led to this decision, but the primary one was my failure to conduct myself as a coach in line with CLG’s and my own standards. In the end I breached the trust of both the organization and the team.

i accidentally made clg achieve some small level of success. im truly sorry for destroying the central foundation of everything the CLG organization is built on

He jerked off double lift and made him spill his pearly seed the night before a big game and it sapped his essence and he didn't play very well. A coach should know better.

New requirement on future coaching applications:

* Have to be comfortable Eiffel towering a babe with HotshotGG and have to make solid hand and eye contact while Aphromoo watches from the corner and provides play-making support

Not really. This is what the absolute peak of NA Challenger ladder looks like right now:

Keith
Apollo
Goldenglue
Dyrus
Shiphtur
Adrian
Sneaky

Maybe there's some unknown elements in the lower ranks of challenger or something, but most of the guys who get regularly lampooned ITT like Goldenglutes, Dyrone and the man himself Shipthur are actually the best challenger level players in the United States.

Okay ignoring jokes and ignoring that I like to watch good carry ADCs going with some adequate NA ADC just so you can import a better jungler or top is way worse than just pairing an elite ADC up with Bjergsen.

Maybe your whatever domestic jungler or top can improve to be acceptable or good, but making a leap from good to great is way less likely. Even if ADC isn't typically a smart use of your import slots Freeze is absolutely worth it, especially on a team with Bjergsen.

It really just all depends on who is free. Freeze is not at all a gamble though, we know he will be good, which is not necessarily even true of an import at the back end of their career with a language barrier.

You can have a lovely ADC and still make it by alright, just look at CLG. You can't have a lovely Jungler or your team will just get rocked.

ADC/Support are not worth blowing an import on. There's less than 5 World Class Junglers/Top laners in NA and out of those they're all imports. Top/Jungle in NA are a total wasteland, you're going to have to import from another region to stay competitive. What does NA have as far as talent goes? iwilldominate, Azingy and Hauntzer? NA is fine on AD Carries right now, and supports aren't hard to train either (Especially when there's players like Adrian/Bunnyfufu that can be picked up)

Is Freeze significantly better than Altec is?
