A Valorant coach is known for hitting the table when his team plays poorly. The whole thing has now become a meme. Now the coach has even caused a technical break and the spectators suspect that the table has been hit again.
Who is the person you are talking about? Valorant coach Alexandre “Alecks” Sallé from Team Paper Rex regularly hits the table, literally. The Frenchman is now known among fans for his emotional nature and his freakouts are a meme that even has its own X account.
During the Pacific Stage 1 final, the coach caused a technical incident that forced the game to be paused. Even without video evidence, it’s clear to fans: He hit the table again and this time he destroyed Riot’s equipment.

What kind of incident occurred? At the final in Seoul, the game was paused due to technical problems. The problems did not affect one of the players, but the coach “Alecks”.
When the camera pans to the coach’s table, he cannot be seen. Instead, several Riot employees are seen crawling under his desk and trying to fix the problems.
After a while the coach appears again; he was also under the desk. The problem was quickly solved; it was probably just a cable that was loose and fell out of the PC, but the fans have long since found the culprit.

How did the game end? The final game in which Paper Rex played against Gen.G was played in a best-of-5. The game was extremely close and the technical break gave both teams the opportunity to talk about their strategies.
The two teams fought a “head to head” race, but in the end Paper Rex and Coach Alecks were able to win.
Valorant is also popular among players for its good anti-cheat. While some people don’t think access to the computer is cool, others are very happy about the hacker-free rounds.
