With the end of the 2022 Spring Transfer Season, the KPL's top teams have begun to reorganize their training and prepare intensely. After all, the new season will gradually merge with AOV, and no one knows how deep the water is. In order to cope with the upcoming integration, this is bound to be a touchstone for the training team and coaches.
Friends who are familiar with the glory of the king of the e-sports circle know that the KPL League has been the 12th league since the opening of the KPL Autumn Tournament in 2016. During this period, both the format version and the players have undergone great changes. Only Fly, Cat and Alan remained on the field. Others either retire and transition or enter the training group. The vast majority of teams are now new players, and now it is mainly the era of Mesozoic players.
If there is one thing that has changed the least, it is the coaching staff. Throughout the history of the KPL league, the coaching staff, especially the top coaching staff, has changed minimally. In the 12th tournament of the KPL League in six years, it is basically the field of two major faction coaches: one faction is led by Jiuzhe, mainly Jiuzhe alone; the other major faction is the Storm Department, because this group of people has played "Storm Heroes" together, and they are closely related to each other, representing gemini, SK and Kear.
In the history of the KPL League, a total of 21 championships have been born, and the Storm Department and the Kuzhe Department have won a total of 14, accounting for two-thirds, which can be said that this result is quite terrifying.
Jiuzhe and Storm, who holds the bull's ear?
Frankly, if you want to talk about the coach in the KPL, you have to blow Kuzhe here. Jiu Zhe alone, he topped a faction of coaches. Among the coaches of the Nine Philosophies Department, except for Jiu Zhe, the other coaches did not have the results and championships that they had won. And Jiuzhe alone holds five championships, the first in the history of the KPL league and the only five-crown coach so far. Even four of the championships were won after the global BP, and there was no control point, and the gold content was real.
Moreover, Jiuzhe has not yet bought any external players, all of which are cultivated by himself. Whether it is Hero 1.0's Xi Xi, Dust Summer, Jiu Long, Jiu Cheng, Initial, Li Li, or Hero 3.0's Star Trace, Fearless, Qing Rong, Jiu Ku, Zi Yang. These top players, all of whom were cultivated by Jiuzhe, are too cost-effective for this championship.
Moreover, Jiuzhe has sent too many talents to the KPL League over the years, and according to conservative estimates, at least half of all the champions of the KPL League are trained by Jiuzhe. Compared with the Storm Department, Jiuzhe is more adept at cultivating and discovering talents, as well as excellent training and BP ability. Jiuzhe is a well-deserved principal of KPL "Whampoa Military Academy" with comprehensive ability!
In addition to the Kuzhe system, it should be the Storm system. The Storms are the big three: Gemini, SK and Zhang Kai, all three of whom have won a total of 9 championships. Gemini has four titles, SK has three and Kaikai has two. In fact, there are more than these championships in the hands of the Storm Coach, if you count the two crowns of Coach Bao and General T in a broad sense (General T was also the Storm before), then there are 12 championships, accounting for almost half of the total number of championships, which can be said to be quite terrifying.
So, to whom did the other champions give: AG Moonlight Crown, AS Senkaku Cold Night Crown, Yellow Crown. It can be seen that the champion coach of the KPL for so many years is actually playing in the Storm Department and the Jiuzhe Department.
Moreover, in terms of winning the championship, most of the champions of the Storm Department are inextricably linked to the Jiuzhe Department. The earliest Predecessor of chongqing QG Five Tigers, in addition to Cat, the other four were the Hero (MU team) that Jiuzhe first brought; among Gemini's four champions, it is mainly Jiuzhe's players, which is beyond doubt. And SK's earliest first champion, Bianlu Qingqing, is also from Hero, and the second and third champions, Qingrong and Ziyang, are also from Hero. And Kai Kai's two champions, the champion Shan Qianshi, was first from Hero. This can also be seen in the strength of Jiuzhe's cultivation of talents.
Compared with coach Jiuzhe's training talents, the storm department coaches are more focused on understanding people and teaming up, but cultivating talents is much worse. The Storms is the premier of the Training and Operational Capabilities League, and Gemini is the first to bring the operational philosophy to the KPL. And SK also has excellent training and layout capabilities. In general, the coaches of the Jiuzhe Department and the Storm Department are good at their own field, basically equally divided, and it is difficult to score high. It's just that Jiuzhe is alone against the Storm System!
