in the very likely case they don't make franchising, they might stick around for the third party tourneys and then leave - would be smart to allow for orgs to see individual performances as the tournaments are gonna be in the transfer window
idk normally they're pretty good at planning 3 hours per game; I'm guessing they want to at least have a chance for the games to finish before NA (since the 3rd game is 2 hours before NA)
Still sucks though to change both time and channel
