wait... it´s a european org? didn´t know that, are there more orgs that changed region in val?
wolves esports (its a british org im pretty sure but they’re playing in VCT CN)
GenG and T1 used to be in NA but switched to APAC when franchising happened
FPX is a CN org that used to play in EMEA (they even won a masters trophy) and you might remember the same squad currently playing for NAVI, that FPX org is now playing in VCT CN
JawXG [#7]A LOT of orgs pick up different rosters from different places for different sports...
Example Team Secret has a European roster
FPX did a switcheroo between China and EU
Disguised to apac
Liquid have a swedish dota team and a south korean (majority) league roster
100t used to have a brazilian roster in CS i heard
Marty [#5]NiP, was EU then went to Brazil and now are out completely
Also had a small stint in China's ascension tournament
catNmouse [#9]100t used to have a brazilian roster in CS i heard
I thought it was australian
Edit: brazilian roster was picked up and asap dropped and they picked up renegades roster aka Aussie roster
KyLZi [#12]The guard team won AMER ascension last year then the guard organization imploded leaving the team of players stranded. Riot was going to not promote any team but then allowed G2 to buy out the team for a spot in franchising, however, in the Americas region.
good to know, thanks

NIP had a tier 2 team last year. They were actually the first to play the Cypher Deadlock comp on Ascent—their coach Fayde was the one who came up with it
