will sen be the only team with an academy team on NA? because idk if there are unconfirmed academys or partnered teams for the rest of orgs, im surprised no other team has announced anything about academys because i thougt any team would want to have the chance of building talent in there considering their league is one of the strongest

it looks like it

maybe sen is the only na org who believes they’re stable enough to have an academy team, perhaps in the future other franchise teams will make them too

cloud9 and 100thieves are broke as fuck they don't have money to create an academy team...also eg does not like to spend much money so them is obvious too only NRG and sentinels were they only ones that could create an academy about G2 im not sure they were invited so... the resources they get are different compared to others stable franchise teams i dont expect them build academy

i find kinda weird how riot didnt think about letting them invest on academys from the start so that they dont have to pay 6 figures to pick up players who might not play as good on LAN, and that way they could save money and also improve tier 2´s situation from the start, teams now would have the chance to pick nightzix and cane and work to make them future franchised players, but instead they went bankrupt by paying inflated LA salaries and expensive buyouts, NA´s inflated t2 economy doesnt help either

Not one of the strongest, THE strongest. The gap is universal.

The cloudberries are signing under nrg as their academy team, we have been scrimming and winning atleast 80% of our matches so we predict to make it to top 5 atleast at the ascension tourney

and also we can beat bilibili which nrg unfortunately can NOT do so we’re likely to fully replace the main roster once all our players are 18

but top 5 doesnt make playoffs and academy teams cant make ascension (atleast for now)

we signed an under the table contract to be let go if we are preforming well enough to make it to ascension
we do not expect to win ascension as we are also match fixing to let m80 win it
