This is episode one of three about Guilhoto's career. Guilhoto is one of the most decorated LoL coaches to have never won a major region title. He was named LEC Coach of the Split twice, LCS Coach of the Split once and was named LVP Coach of the split too. Guilhoto got noticed when his Giants team qualified to the EU LCS, beating Schalke 04, and won the LVP Superliga over MAD Lions. Taking on the coaching job at Schalke, who had requalified, he got a roster featuring Nukeduck and Upset to the summer final before losing to the FNATIC squad who dominated the region for one of the best Western years ever. S04 would fail to get through the Regional to Worlds, though. Moving up to Origen, he got a mini super-team of top LEC talents and famously both defeated FNATIC to make the finals back-to-back, along with his S04 split, but then lost in record time to a seemingly unbeaten future MSI champion G2 super-team. Origen looked good early in summer but fell apart and both missed play-offs and lost their Jungler kold to a break. Again his finalist squad would not compete at Worlds. For 2020 he got to choose the line-up and brought in Xerxe as Jungler but had to settle for Destiny at Support due to almost no funds. The squad surprised in Spring and were high in the table but bowed out in fourth in the play-offs. The summer split was another disaster as the team floundered near the end of the split and finished 10th, last place, despite having talents like Upset and Alphari who were among the best at their positions. For 2021 Guilhoto went to the LCS and Immortals. His team were unable to gather serious form and were also-rans in the league. Behind-the-scenes hype got him a crack at a multi-million dollar Team Liquid super-team featuring names like Bjergsen, CoreJJ and Hans Sama. The team won Lock-In and were very good in spring but fell to third after a defeat the hands of up and comers EG. For summer the squad again faltered late and this time finished fourth to Worlds by a single game. Guilhoto returned to the LVP Superliga and coached Giants again. He would then switch to football star Casemiro's CASE and narrowly lose to Giants to finish fourth. This summer he made the move to Team Heretics to coach Los Heretics and is the reigning LVP champion using players like Xerxe, Sertuss and JackSpektra. In part one, Guilhoto discusses his basketball background, the appeal of coaching, bringing big names through the ERLs, coaching Schalke to an EU LCS final, why he turned down FNATIC, his Origen runs and the big players he coached along the way.
