sustainable is a funny word in this scenario, none of these tier2 orgs were making money and were 99% never making it out of open qualifiers

This is pretty sad. Riot immediately needs to implement a way for the tier 2 scene to participate.

U should hope for good regional legues. In eu it works really well. Almost no orgs stepping away. At least teams that play in legues with high viewership. But idk how it's going to work in Na

Na was bound to have teams drop rosters with the high salaries, hopefully, things will settle somewhere in the middle with teams that believe in the system with lower salaries
