The head coach of Cloud9’s CSGO team, Aleksandar “Kassad” Trifunovic, end his 4-month journey with the organization today. The main reason for leaving the Cloud9 was conflicts between him and the team’s in-game leader, Alex McMeekin, according to C9’s Manager Henry Greer.

Kassad said Henry was correct and that his vision for the team and their approach to the game were just too different from the start to make something work. Thus Greer decided it was best for the both sides to move on while everyone is on break ahead of playing in any 2021 competitions.

Thanks to the boss @kassad for his time.
