“I knew last year before [Masters] Tokyo and before Champions that this roster probably wasn’t going to stay the same,” Potter said in response to a Dot Esports question. “For Boostio, C0M, and jawgemo… I’ve been coaching them for a couple years now and we’ve been through a lot of different phases in life together. Every player in their career, including myself, has these moments where you look at the other side and wonder if the grass is greener.”<\/p>
Potter attests that every player on the roster had a variety of options during this past offseason and hinted that a few were able to obtain “the bag,” or a substantial monetary deal. But that isn’t to say the idea of sticking together was never on the table.<\/p>
“Every player has to make a decision like that in their career, and for a lot of my players, [there were] a lot of options,” Potter said. “Some had the option to chase the bag. I saw it coming. We had conversations with each other on sticking together, not<\/em> chasing the bag, and going for more wins, but [those were] tough choices.”<\/p>
