Chapter 136 The Last Piece of the Puzzle

The CEO of Omaken Sports is only 28 years old this year, very young. His name is Joachim Haraldsen. He was once the most famous game anchor in Norway, and his ID is NoobworK.

Thanks to the convenience of his status, he cooperates with game manufacturers such as Ubisoft, Microsoft, and Green Tea, and also has good personal relationships with the bosses of many e-sports teams.

It is said that at the age of 16, he was diagnosed with a spinal problem and had to drop out of school.

He then underwent two major surgeries over the next three years, the second of which required the reconstruction of his spine, resulting in him being 10 centimeters shorter than before and requiring him to relearn to walk.

In 2020, he founded Omaken Sports and then raised funds to acquire Heroic.

"I especially like the name Heroic."

"Heroism is something everyone admires and is a positive thing, and it's something I firmly believe everyone should strive for."

NoobworK was standing in the center of the crowd, his eyes swept over everyone.

"So I kept the name. In the future, both Heroic and Omaken will compete with other brands under the banner of Heroic."

Erik, who has become the former CEO of Heroic, also took the microphone and said a few words: "We are very happy to continue Heroic's journey in the Omaken Sports group..."

……

Today, the composition of an e-sports club is far more complicated than it was ten years ago.

In the CS era, maybe one coach plus five players is a team, even without a coach.

But now, in addition to the official players and coaches, depending on the size of the club, there are also administrative, operational, and business departments.

The whole is more like a complete company.

Formal team members are the core part, and around these players, corresponding psychological counseling, nutritionists, or other specialists will be provided.

Today's Heroic coach position is vacant, and for the time being, assistant coach Troels Robl can only fill this vacancy.

It doesn't matter in the short term, but in the long run, it's definitely a big problem.

Robl's lack of experience is one thing, and on the other hand, he has a complete lack of understanding of the game.

Fortunately, the arrival of NoobworK can help Heroic solve this problem from another aspect.

"cadiaN, do you have a promising coaching candidate?"

As soon as the simple welcome meeting was over, NoobworK came to the training room and asked the question he was most concerned about at the moment.

Coaching has a lot to do with the performance of the team, so it is naturally NoobworK's most important issue.

In his opinion, if Heroic had a reliable coach by his side at the just-concluded BLAST, the ending might have been completely different.

But he was negotiating the acquisition with Erik at the time, and according to the relevant treaty, he could not interfere with Heroic's internal affairs.

But now it's different.

Now he has the final say.

"There are a few, but we haven't contacted them yet." cadiaN answered truthfully.

The coaches of the first-line strong teams have very little room for choice.

A strong and capable coach has long been pinched to death by other teams and will not be released easily.

Moreover, the position of head coach is often more stable than the team's own players.

Such as zonic in Astralis, RobbaN in FaZe Clan, B1ad3 in Navi.

These people often stay in the team longer than some team members.

They know the composition of the team best, understand the characteristics of the players, and can better prescribe the right medicine to help the team and players better adjust themselves.

As the saying goes, an iron coach is a good soldier.

Unless there is a major accident, a normal club will not change coaches easily.

So after HUNDEN was exposed to using BUG in 2020, the club is still willing to protect him.

There is also the idea of ​​cultivating him and making the team more stable.

But who would have thought that kindness would later be regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs.

"Choose the person you think is suitable, let Robl ask, or you can talk in person, it's okay, and the salary and treatment will definitely be in line with the position of coach." NoobworK said these things very seriously.

"You are solely responsible for this matter, cadiaN, I trust your vision."

cadiaN nodded, although he was a little worried, but it didn't show on his face.

After NoobworK left, he picked up the headset and asked in the team's voice channel: "About the coach, do you have any good candidates and recommendations?"

"I really don't know much about this, so I can't give you much advice." Wang Che replied honestly.

TeSeS is very straightforward: "Can you poach from other teams?"

"This is inappropriate. If the coach's contract in another team has not expired, we can't rush to find him." cadiaN frowned.

This is what troubled him the most. Hunden was poached by Team A. Now, should they go to poach someone else?

But knowing for the time being that the team will have no financial pressure, it is also a good thing.

cadiaN first asked the team members to watch the prepared DEMO with Robl, and then continued to study the positioning and tactics, and then continued to run the map and practice guns.

It wasn't until after the training match and the first day of training that cadiaN was lying alone in a chair, bored.

I have searched through my steam friends list and mobile phone contacts several times, but I am still not sure who is suitable to be the head coach of Heroic.

"Hey, cadiaN, look at this." Wang Che flipped through the little blue bird when he was idle and bored, and suddenly a Hltv news popped up, his eyes lit up.

cadiaN turned his head and took a look, then jumped up and slapped his thigh: "What a coincidence! I'll contact him right now!"

Stavn on the side was taken aback, looked over curiously, and then saw the screen of the phone in Wang Che's hand, and suddenly realized.

[The legendary Swedish conductor Xizt announced his retirement: I have no regrets in my career]

"The legendary commander Xizt announced his retirement, ending his 12-year professional career. During this period, he participated in two different versions of 1.6 and CSGO, won numerous championships, and represented Fnatic, NiP, Faze and Dignitas and other teams team, but the legend will eventually come to an end..."

"I've had ups and downs in my career, but looking back, it's been an amazing and memorable journey, but I haven't left CS yet..."

Who is Xizt?

This is probably known to everyone in the CSGO circle, and everyone knows it.

After he became a member of NIP and served as a conductor, he once created an undefeated legend of 87 consecutive victories in offline games with the team in the early days of CSGO.

Has won more than 2014 championship titles including the 20 Cologne Major...

He was already a legend in stavn, TeSeS and others before they touched CSGO, and he was the first generation of legendary players.

Behind the former belief in NIP are the names of the cosmic team Fnatic, Brazil's LG, SK, Denmark's Astralis and other teams.

And he chose to retire at this time, and said that he would not leave CS.

Then what he meant couldn't be more clear...

Seeing this news, and looking at cadiaN who was already on the phone, everyone showed unbelievable looks at the same time.

A brain that was originally in command, a legendary player with decades of career...

If he is willing to join Heroic, then this is simply a gift from God to Heroic.

"He is definitely the most suitable candidate for Heroic, NoobworK, we must take him down!" cadiaN called the new boss again, with an extremely firm tone.

"It must be him!"

Only three days later, Wang Che saw Xizt in Heroic's training room...

NoobworK greeted him personally, and he held Xizt's hand tightly and said heavily.

"Welcome to Heroic! Xizt, I'm proud of what you've achieved in your career, and now, you can continue to work hard to win games, but the role will be completely different."

Then, Heroic's official tweet made an official announcement.

[The legendary Swedish conductor Xizt will join the team as an analyst and coach. 】

cadiaN also commented below the tweet: "For him and us, both of us are working hard to learn from each other. If we have the same ideas and the same philosophy, then we will go on with him!"
