Cloud9 and general manager Henry “\u2060HenryG\u2060” Greer agreed to mutually part ways on Monday after the organization made the decision to \u201cpause involvement<\/a>\u201d with Counter-Strike <\/em>on March 27.<\/p>
\u201cToday’s the day that Cloud9 and myself will be parting ways, \u201cHenryG said on social media<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s truly a shame how things panned out with a lot of mitigating circumstances but plenty of positive memories, too,\u201d <\/p>
But due to the coronavirus pandemic, the team was \u201cprevented\u201d from \u201cassembling\u201d as planned, and though everyone \u201cworked hard to rise to the challenge,\u201d according to the organization<\/a>, remote training wasn\u2019t \u201cconducive for building an organization the way Cloud9 usually does.\u201d <\/p>
On-going issues with woxic\u2019s \u201cunreliable high ping\u201d and a \u201ccompromising time zone\u201d further contributed to Cloud9\u2019s struggles, resulting in the organization terminating the player\u2019s contract in January 2021<\/a>.<\/p>
\u201cWhile the space is in this strange transition period I have decided to take a sabbatical and enjoy some of the normality that life has to offer,\u201d HenryG said<\/a>. \u201cI will be back eventually when the right opportunity arises\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
