Now that I think of it, why didn’t they just sign their old roster as an academy team? Like if xross was still with them they’d be frying korea.

i think it’s just kind of a logistics thing. Since these rosters cannot ascend, making the majority of teams fully academy rosters means less orgs with an incentive to ascend and it would cause a TGRD issue if that team did get to ascension and win because they’d be having an org buy out the team as a whole. It’s stupid but in riots eyes i guess it kinda makes sense. It’s probably why like Loud doesn’t have an official academy roster same with Kru who just are affiliated with Oxen

Xross is their sixth man but i think that since there’s already 3 academy rosters in the league it would be tooo much since they need teams that can actually ascend which is why FearX(old Liiv Sandbox) owns them now

Signing academy teams is expensive as fuck. Not to mention 5 man rosters plus coach is already unprofitable for a lot of teams, and that's the bare minimum.
