Although we are big fans of LFLin Europe, the reference remains to this day the LEC. If some people think that the European elite is losing momentum, it is still in this league that we find the best players in the region. In addition, the revisited format of the competition could well revive the hype and sweep away the doubts.
The Karmine Corp tried, but it failed to make a place for itself in the sun for 2023. In the meantime, fans will still be able to vibrate by supporting “old timers”. It’s not official yet, but Rekkles as 113 should be starters at Fnatic and Astralis. Striker, the former coach of Karmine would also have made a verbal agreement to integrate a technical staff of an LEC structure. A great challenge awaits him.
A first experience in LEC for Striker
According to the page Leaguepedia of Strikerthe latter has never supervised a project other than the Karmine Corp. at high level. He lived the promotion in LFL, the title of champion of France and the three European titles with the EUM and it is a true legend of the club, in the same way as a Saken. But for the coach, the time has come to describe a new page in its history. He would have made a verbal agreement with Team BDS to be an assistant coach at Team BDS.
Obviously, being an assistant coach is less prestigious than being a headcoach. But this first experience in LEC could bring him a lot. Just like the position of player, the position of coach requires constant learning. This will also allow Striker to confront a international environment. Beyond knowledge, it is also a good opportunity to network and make yourself known. The “cronyism” is important in esports.
Team BDS, Karmine Corp DNA?
We already made the joke last year with Team BDS’ very Karmine Corp roster at Spring 2022: Adam, Cinkrof, NUCLEARINT, xMatty. For 2023, change is to be expected, but we should find a spine that is still very blue… Adam and NUCLEARINT are still there with Striker bonus.
Note also that in Div 2, Striker had the opportunity to supervise the two young Frenchmen. It is therefore very well placed to channel them, improve them and make them progress.
