Since losing three main players electronic , Perfecto(RUS) , and HObbit in April this year, the outside world has been speculating about the future lineup of Cloud9. And the relevant revelations have been endless. Cloud9 team manager sweetypotz responded to the question from the outside world on social media and talked about the situation of the new lineup trial at Cloud9. According to his description, all parties are treating this matter with a high sense of responsibility, but he did not disclose any information about the new members. Therefore, Cloud9's new lineup is still in a phase of uncertainty.
"Although it is really cool to fantasize, at least some reliable basis is needed to support these fantasies."
All of our trials (not just one or two) have been fully communicated and interacted with the other clubs. We first make a request, communicate with the management of the other party, determine the trial date and clear planning. In most cases, potential candidates will come to the training camp to participate in the trial.
All trial players will play training matches. Therefore, it is impossible for secret training sessions with a certain player to take place without any leaks.
If some C9 players play together on a platform in their spare time (yes, it's that simple), especially when there are no three people in the lineup, if people take these information seriously, and even register these platform teammates, then C9 will become a mature team with 22 players and a thick reserve roster (Note: This reminds people of the team Evil Geniuses).
In addition, all the small details will be exposed to the outside world, so no one can join a team quietly without being noticed.
I understand that the community wants to know more about how we feel, and we are also aware of the high news heat and topic discussion of the current C9 lineup (in terms of the number of news, we may already be producing content for the CS news plan), but this is our current policy.
First, you need to achieve results (build a lineup, sign all relevant documents, etc.), and then tell the outside world how this big spaceship is touring in the vast galaxy.
There are many dreamlike fairy tales in interviews and statements, which are not only about the news of the C9 lineup, but also other contents. But these are not news. We are working hard, everything is progressing in an orderly manner, and various official news will be coming soon."
The current rumored lineup of C9 team mainly includes two players: HeavyGod , ICY . Among them, HeavyGod released a dynamic on social media a few days ago, implying that he has signed a new contract. And some leak sources found that HeavyGod is no longer seen in the training camp of OG team, and Vladan Radević | VLDN has taken his place, so it is highly likely that HeavyGod has joined C9.
As for ICY, he is the sniper of AMKAL team. But yesterday, AMKAL unexpectedly demoted ICY to the substitute lineup. According to AMKAL's statement, they will also conduct an investigation to determine "whether the player has any unfair behavior towards the club."
This news was interpreted by harumi and OD. Among them, OD bluntly said on social media: "ICY played and tried out with Cloud9 without permission from AMKAL. This is one of the reasons why he was replaced."
Therefore, from sweetypotz's statement, it is clear that he mentioned the lineup issue in many places, explicitly stating that there are no and will not be any secret trials. However, if you recall the incident of electroNic joining Virtus.pro team, there was no news before that. The credibility of the C9 manager's statement remains to be seen.
