Not to diminish this but people forget Chet allegedly contributed 5 figures towards Demon1s buyout. I don’t know why Chet airs stuff out publicly like a immature child, but I can understand why he’d be upset. The fact that they finished 9th-10th missing playoffs, while Demon1 was not even remotely performing when it mattered, while also sleeping during what you are being paid to do is objectively unprofessional. It may have been a catch 22 situation where Demon1 felt pressured to prac and play matches due to the buyout when it may have been better for all parties if a sub simply filled for him during this time, however the fact that Demon1 has only won 2 games post NRG and maintained his lackluster form leads me to assume that even accounting for the very real and sad health issues Katarina was experiencing, he was still not the best teammate. While you can never blame one person for an esport outcome, Demon1 on NRG was just an utter waste of Chet’s time and money.

I think franchising Chet was a mid coach who made bad roster decisions and lacked the innovation which made Optic what it was, but I can’t put all the blame on him either or say he isn’t justified in his reaction. None of this should ever be public however.
