When the T1 team won the championship in the spring, the schedule and personnel selection issues related to MSI and the Asian Games have always touched the hearts of fans, but the LCK division has not been peaceful in recent days. Not long ago, KeSpa, the Korean e-sports association, announced the 10-person shortlist for the LOL project. But no one expected that a new palace fight drama had also begun.
A few days ago, Faker complained about the unreasonable schedule during the live broadcast, because the sudden addition of the Asian Games training and selection tournament disrupted the original T1 preparation plan for MSI, as well as various commercial activities. At that time, T1 urgently canceled the contestants' daily live broadcast tasks, which made fans temporarily put their minds at ease. However, the real hidden danger has not disappeared.
Yesterday, kkoma, the head coach of the LOL project of the Asian Games of the South Korean team, held a press conference through the online form, during which many questions of concern were successively responded to. For example, the schedule mentioned above is unreasonable, and the selection rules are debatable.
Kkoma revealed in this online interview that he does not have the right to choose people (according to his idea, of course, T1 will be the mainstay), and the training plan proposed is not taken seriously. During the period, the reporter asked: "Does this mean that the selection method of the association (KeSpa) and the method of coach Kim Jong-kyun (kkoma) do not match?" At the time, Kkoma said bluntly: "Yes. ”
The holding of this online press conference is basically equivalent to kkoma and high-level KeSpa tearing their faces.
After yesterday's press conference, no one knew what else was going on between Kkoma and KeSpa, but this afternoon Kkoma suddenly announced that he had decided to resign after much deliberation. Kkoma said firmly: "I don't think I should continue to be in charge of the national team with all kinds of noise all the time. ”
At this point, there is no room for the two sides to turn around.
For this resignation of kkoma, most people took the opposite side of KeSpa and supported Kkoma's decision. Whether it is domestic netizens or Korean netizens, at least a consensus has been reached on this matter - kkoma as the head coach of the Asian Games is nominal, it is to carry the pot.
The LPL officially explained rain boy, and his views on this matter were also consistent with most of the audience. I feel that kkoma has a supervisory name, but the actual power is pitiful, and there is no right to speak. Therefore, kkoma's choice to resign can also be understood, in the name of "justice open." ”
At present, the determination of the new head coach of the LOL project of the Asian Games has become a new problem that needs to be solved urgently. It is reasonable to say that there is no shortage of coaching candidates, but with the case of kkoma in front, others have to weigh whether they can afford this job.
Many South Korean netizens have launched an initiative to participate in this regard, hoping that the LCK event officials can participate in order to play a counterbalance to KeSpa. But whether the problem can be solved or not, no one can say it well.
According to the current situation, it is not surprising that the South Korean team will be the same as in 2018, and the players from each team will be selected to form the Asian Games team.
