getting a list of coaches is always rough (I cant remember their names for the live of me)
this is only the ones where I remember the teams properly improving from mainly in Polaris and Dach (dont watch the other regions enough to properly be able to gauge a players progress)
Dach has PAL currently on the free (I think?) market (ex fireflux, wylde, fokus and now sorta vitality)
Forrest is also currently FA (coach of apeks last year) - back from his break and should be top of the list for any org looking for a coach atm
Both of Apeks staff are top tier (though Apeks is already a good org so not salty about them being in t2)
Bromas (currently on valiant) has been on my radar and did super well this year improving his team
Most recently ex Case Andreas is FA atm. Doing super well for years now, give him a shot!
Johnny Lobster (also from Fokus) is someone I really wanna see on another team now that hes let go from fokus (t2 is fine but t1 should def give him a shot with his amazing track record of winning "ascension" and making it through groups last year)
And then the recycled coaches (though I find it SUPER ironic that theyre the 2 that are dropped since imo these are some of the very best ones so ya know):
salah and doombros
doombros need no intro
and to make a case for salah just watch pre new coaching staff oglu and then lcq oglu. Hes good.
And then theres a ton of really good coaches we already lost (only the ones I can think of... cba to go through the 500 leagues)
Itiopia, Fields, Bonkar (doesnt count but I want him back), Happy, alexRr, Tinder
Im sure I forgot a ton of notable coaches who already retired/have been FA for the entire year since... well coaches are just hard to remember.
Very interesting. I trust a lot the criteria of the people at KOI in charge of making this decision. Unlike other years were the people in charge of the roster were um, questionable, this year after the merge with MRS and MAD that the sporting director and staff in charge of this are some of the most competent people around and been successful a thousand times.
About the process they have interviewed about 30/40 people through several rounds, some made it further than others. I imagine most of the ones mentioned were on that list. From KOI itself, we got some names of coaches that were on the list but have been discarded like Doombros, some of the spanish guys like goked/thinkii and a couple others I really can't remember. We'll see Ig
