AleksiB Shares Insights on Leadership and Team Dynamics

In the second part of his revealing interview, Aleksi 'AleksiB' Virolainen, former captain of G2, delves into the intricate dynamics and decision-making processes during his time with the team in 2022.

AleksiB disclosed that the management tended to defer to coach XQTZZZ, whose close relationship with friend Jerome significantly influenced the team's direction. "They had a plan, and together they tried to build the team," AleksiB explained, noting that his own opinions often carried less weight, particularly as he hadn't been officially signed at that point. Discussions could abruptly switch to French, further isolating him from key conversations.

AleksiB also opened up about his controversial departure from ENCE. "All we needed to do was go to a sauna and talk out the problems," he remarked, reflecting on the circumstances leading to his removal. Surprisingly, half of the team was unaware of the plans to remove him, which he described as a metaphorical 'stab in the back.' "The atmosphere should have tipped me off, but I was incredibly naive," he admitted.

These candid revelations shed light on the often opaque internal workings of esports teams, where personal relationships and behind-the-scenes agreements can shape careers and team success. AleksiB's experiences highlight the complexities of leadership and the importance of clear communication within professional teams.
