Update: Valve has responded to requests to clarify its new rules regarding coaching. From the post: It was important to make a decision before teams further invested in coach IGLs [in-game leaders] and we decided to rein in the role of coaching in the next Major to exclude player responsibilities. Original story continues below.ESL notified multiple top Counter-Strike teams via email on Wednesday about an imminent rule change to Valve-sponsored Counter-Strike: Global Offensive events that will limit a teams communication with its in-game coach, according to a report from Counter-Strike news site HLTV.In addition, ESL will reportedly adopt this rule indefinitely for its offline events.With the change, Valve will only allow coaches to communicate with the team during warm-up, halftime and during one of four 30-second timeouts available to each team. Currently, coaches are allowed to be an active part of the game throughout the match, often times controlling and dictating positions and strategies to their players, akin to the traditional role of an in-game leader.The email, written by Counter-Strike level designer and Valve developer Ido Magal, states that Valve believes coaches effectively defeat the purpose of the game. Magal states that the company wants the five best Counter-Strike players to win the game via their own skill, not that of a sixth member contributing to their game strategy.Activities such as keeping track of the economy, calling plays, and general situational awareness are important components of CS gameplay, he states. If a person is performing these actions, we consider them a player.While ESL has reportedly adopted this rule already, Magal says that other third-party organizers will not be forced to abide by it. However, if those organizers want to stay in consideration to host one of Counter-Strike: Global Offensives majors -- the largest events within the scene that only occur a few times a year -- they will need to enact the rule themselves.Other organizers include ESLs sister company DreamHack; Turner and WME|IMGs televised event ELeague; British Counter-Strike company FACEIT; and American tournament organizers Major League Gaming and CEVO. Two of these companies, excluding ESL, that have hosted major events are Major League Gaming and DreamHack.While yet to be announced, HLTV reports that the next major event will occur in January with no specified tournament organizer or date named yet.Cheap Jerseys 2020 .

Wholesale Jerseys 2020 . - After leading the Saints to a fourth playoff appearance in five seasons, Drew Brees expressed confidence in the direction of his team and, perhaps more importantly, showed a willingness to listen to contract proposals if the team needs his help getting under the NFLs salary cap.Novak Djokovic and coach Boris Becker are splitting up after three seasons -- and a half-dozen Grand Slam titles -- as a pair.Djokovic posted a statement on Facebook on Tuesday, saying the duo jointly decided to end our cooperation.The goals we set when we started working together have been completely fulfilled, and I want to thank him for the cooperation, teamwork, dedication and commitment, Djokovics posting said. On the other hand, my professional plans are now directed primarily to maintain a good level of play, and also to make a good schedule and new goals for the next season. In this regard I will make all future decisions.Of Djokovics 12 career major singles trophies -- among men, trailing only Roger Federer with 17, and Pete Sampras and Rafael Nadal with 14 apiece -- half came while working with Becker.Djokovic also was the runner-up at three other Grand Slam tournaments during his time with Becker, meaning the Serb made it to the finals at nine of the 12 majors during their partnership.Becker also was around for Djokovics first French Open title in June, which allowed him to become the eighth man to complete a career Grand Slam -- at least one championship at each of tennis four most important events -- and the first in nearly a half-century tto win four major tournaments in a row.ddddddddddddAt Roland Garros, Djokovic was asked about working with Becker, a six-time major champion as a player in the 1980s and 1990s and part of a recent wave of past stars who signed up to coach current stars.The last couple of years, I had some great times with him, Djokovic said, explaining that Becker taught him from a psychological point of view, how to handle things on the tour, on and off the court.His contribution to the team is definitely big, and so everything works in harmony so far, Djokovic said at the time. How long it is going to go for, we dont know. We go year by year. ... So at the end of this year, we will see if he goes for another year.After Djokovics triumph in Paris, his season went off course.He was upset in the third round at Wimbledon by Sam Querrey and in the first round at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics by Juan Martin del Potro, then lost the No. 1 ranking to Andy Murray last month, finishing 2016 at No. 2.With Becker in his corner, Djokovic finished 2014 and 2015 atop the ATP rankings.---Follow Howard Fendrich on Twitter at http://twitter.com/HowardFendrich ' ' '
