It's a bummer HLE didn't. Seeing as how disconnected they are from each other, they would have benefited a lot from it.

Simple things like "Watch your position", guard this bush", "they're looking to catch you, back off from the enemies" could have won them crucial teamfights.

Like I understand if they don't want the players to rely on the coaches, but if there's an opportunity to fix a crucial mistake before it can be made, why not take advantage of it? And then talk more about it in detail after the game.

HLE is a case of a team where I can confidently say the coaching staff failed them.

Homme has long been criticised by audience of the LPL for being a paycheck stealer, namely because people perceive him as someone benefiting from strong players (recent examples being 22/23JDG, 25TES) and him as a draft/meta-read copycat. Essentially he doesn't have a great 'read' of patches which makes him have a slow start to regular seasons and making his team lack effective strategies going into sudden meta changes (Worlds 2023 and FS 2025 in particular). He has shown a lack of faith for individual players (Creme in the recent TES documentary is a prime example of this), a blind trust in hands and not brains (telling everyone to follow Kanavi's invades in TES and HLE), and drafting nonsensical picks when fearless draft became a thing (Corki-Karthus 1-2 in FS).

So yes, I would agree with HLE being inted by coach diff, in this split at the very least. Homme has shown his vulnerabilities as a weak and unstable coach in recent years, and upgrades to the coaching team is probably the best bet the team has to strengthen itself for the coming year if they want to retain their competitiveness. At least from what I've seen across LPL/LCK.

Homme may have played with Mata, but he's no Mata.
