(rough) Translation of text:: I believe subscribers and regular viewers of my stream should know that I'm in Korea right now. A number of people are curious about my reasons for going to Korea, well I'm finally going to reveal it to everyone!
HKEsports have been supportive of me going to Korean to be the the coach of the famous team Fnatic, till the end of this season. I'll do my best to utilise my experience with big LAN events to help the team perform even better at Worlds!
Lately some viewers have been asking who's this mysterious "Long Wu" person? He's actually my manager Andrew who's accompanied me here to Korea, he won't mind me giving him a new nickname will he? Haha. Hope everyone will continue supporting me and HKEsports! -end translation-
Because there's been very lively discussion about the position of "coach" of late, I'll point out that the term used here (教練) specifically translates to coach; not manager (which would be 經理) and not consultant either (顧問; which is what Mistake is for AHQ. But from the text he seems more like a life/motivational/mentor-style coach than a strategy-determining-coach

Everyone (on reddit at least) is so quick to jump on the "SHRC lost to a bunch of noobs so UZI's quitting, what a kid" hate-train, it pisses me off so much. I'll take Wh1t3zz's word over random conjecture any day.
你们不要责怪小狗了,这件事情据我所知不是他的错,他年纪不善于表达。以后会给大家一个解释的。 Don't blame UZI, from what I know of this it is not his fault, he's at a age where he's bad at expressing himself. An explanation will be given in the future.

I really don't think it's that, if he can spend a season on a team as godawful as spring split royal I don't think just before worlds this will break him

So they had AD Insec and Jungle Lucian in a scrim and bad blood arose.

None of the people on Reddit are mindreaders AFAIK, so to me this is just another baseless conjecture. In fact Reddit is a reliably bad source since half of the people there mindlessly repeat conjecture they've been given, some of which are based off of mistranslations. Anyhow, nobody outside of SHRC/ex-SHRC members knows for certain what's going on. (judging by the OMG members' tweets at UZI)
(I just realised that I might actually be more fond of SHRC/UZI than I thought. Getting uncharacteristically riled up at reddit's absurdity, which I really should be used to by now =_=;; apologies for the aggressive tone )

I believe Riot has said they will reopen online qualifiers (ranked 5s) for some spots into the expansion tournament (similar to how teams get into the challenger tournament)
|
Going by the responses in Tieba, it's a fake.
Also find it suspicious it popped up in a general group chat and not Royal's. (all major teams have their own tieba, kind of functions like a fanclub and such)
IDK why so many 'fans' love to spread (and even go as far as to translate) such misinformation.
Edit: OP has been edited to link to a tieba thread that 'proves' that the original thing (UZI bitching about his pay) was a fake. Note the lil' asterisk in the OP

Well maybe we will still see them in NA. They just cant go as an all Korean game, but 2 can always join a team. It all depends on their English skills or their willingness to improve it. If a korean trys hard and makes some crash course he could be pretty good until the next season starts. I don't think that Shy/Madlife are crazy enough to change situation when they can play only with one atrocious ad and still have biggest fanbase in Korea to situation, when they recruit three random NA challenger players and try to pursue NA LCS from that point. But it's funny cockblock by Riot no matter what though, i was waiting for hype and now it's broken dream. Well challenger team of course not, I was more thinking replacing people on existing LCS team. Like Lustboy and Helios did. Well, other thing is that you have to replace your both toplaner and support for it. Only team who might give it a shot is EG, having more Koreans in team was never a bad idea. Ofc i mean teams with at least some hopes for next season, not random team who's going to enter LCS after Expansion tournament. EG already has 2 foreigners. CLG is a better candidate, they will surely need 2 players and after releasing Seraph and Dexter they will have zero foreigners. Maybe Dig will look for a new bot lane. And some unexpected, super crazy stuff will happen anyway like always before a new season. Helios is one and he's is exempt non-resident since now. CLG will have to replace Aphromoo for it and i'm not sure that they will go for it and Dignitas is still Dignitas. It doesnt matter if Helios is excempt non-resident for this purpose. Riot:"if a team has two or more exempt non-resident players, they cannot add additional non-exempt non-resident players to their starting roster" And pretty sure Krepo is excempt non-resident as well, maybe he qualifies for getting the residency status though. Riot will publish soon their conditions for that, we dont know them yet. If both retain the excempt non-resident status and stay in the team, EG can not add any Koreans to for example replace Innox. Regarding CLG, I was only talking about them being a candidate for adding Koreans in general, not any particular players. I dont see them as a Madlife candidate either.
What, yo, Krepo hasn't been here for 5 years
