Belgium, Antwerp.
The Major Challengers Stage was in full swing.
Yet across the ocean, every Chinese CSGO team had their attention fixed on something else.
Aether had only signed a two-month contract with Fnatic.
Magic City, China.
It was already late at night.
Jack, the manager of Tyloo, was carefully reading the information about Aether that the team's coach, LETN1, had just printed out.
Jack sat opposite the coach, LETN1, tapping his right index finger against the table.
"LETN1, would Aether really make the team that much stronger if he joined us?"
The Serbian coach, LETN1, nodded. "Yes. If you can bring Aether in, we definitely won't stop at the Asian qualifiers for the second half of the 2022 Major."
Jack irritably ran a hand through his hair. "DANK1NG is our team's AWPer too. We can't kick him out."
LETN1 cleared his throat. "We don't necessarily have to kick DANK1NG out."
"Aether uses the AWP not because his rifle is weak, but because poizon's AWP is unreliable."
"Besides, Aether can communicate in Chinese. And as the coach, I can communicate with him in English."
"Whether a team can communicate smoothly is one of the key factors affecting its results."
"Even dev1ce, one of the top three AWPers in the world, was prepared to communicate in Swedish after joining NIP."
LETN1 stopped there, but the meaning behind his words was clear.
Jack's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked excited.
"That's right. Aether's Chinese, so communication won't be a problem at all."
"And he went to Fnatic, which proves his English is fine too. He can communicate with you in English."
"More importantly, Aether's contract with Fnatic is about to expire. We wouldn't have to pay a transfer fee at all."
Jack was about to continue, but then he noticed LETN1
