Perkz Distances Himself from Tates and ocelote in Controversial Statement

G2 head coach Luka ‘Perkz’ Perković posted a lengthy and controversial statement on social media addressing his personal beliefs and convictions. The statement comes amid heightened scrutiny of his character following G2’s disappointing 1-3 elimination in the Swiss Stage at the 2026 League of Legends World Championship.

Perkz, who joined G2 as head coach in July following the sudden departure of long-term predecessor Dylan Falco, claims he inherited a ‘broken and dysfunctional’ organization. The timing of his public statement coincides with significant roster changes at the esports organization, including reports that French Jungler Rudy ‘SkewMond’ Semaan will depart, with Vitality’s Linas ‘Lyncas’ Nauncikas expected to take his place.

The controversial nature of Perkz’s statement, combined with G2’s disappointing international performance and ongoing roster speculation, has intensified discussion about the team’s internal dynamics and organizational direction during a particularly challenging period for the storied esports organization.
