How Coach V inspired TNC

As shotcaller Jomarie “Escalera” Delos Santos said, “Mahalaga si Coach V, kase nakasama ko siya sa ArkAngel. Tapos parang pamilya po yung turing ko sa kanya.”
Assistant coach Jemson “Scholar” Glean Ignacio also offered praises.
“Kami-kami po yung magkakasama kaya noong nalaman namin yung naging kalagayan niya, nag-pray talaga kami tapos parang yung ginagawa namin sa practices, para sa kanya talaga.”
Amid the pain he endured, Coach V dedicated his time and effort to further support his team. While he was at the hospital, he formulated the team’s gameplan, especially their Diggie + Odette strategy. He even revealed that prior to Season 9, he intended to experiment with various tactics that could surprise his foes.
With his hidden unorthodox strategies and his inspiring grit and determination, teams in the MPL are now free to snap up his tactical mind.
