Yay Contract

Guys, How do contracts in esports work? If you drop a player dont you have to payout their complete contract like in traditional sports or are there no consequences of dropping a player? If its the same as traditional sports, it just doenst make sense to drop Yay cause wouldnt paying out his contract and then replacing him with another player be significantly more expensive than just playing with him or am I wrong?

i think if u are benched u get like 5% of the salary, might be wrong tho

It's not about contacts and all. Many teams would like to have him but rn it's not the time as they have established teams with good chemistry so why rist it for a new player who may be good. He will remain teamless for this split. C9 fked him up

No, what I am saying is, wouldnt it have been better for c9 to just keep him or do they not have to payout his contract?

if he didn't have a buyout i'm sure many teams would love to have him

They didn't pay him his full contact amount right?

Based on this I am assuming, there are no financial consequences of dropping a player, damn thats kinda fked up.

Idk, thats why I asked, in traditional sports you usually have to payout the contract so I was wondering if its the same in esports or not.

He doesnt have a buyout, he is a free agent and not affiliated with c9 at all.

unless he specifically said he's an unrestricted F/A then he has a buyout
