They prolly make the current roster Academy and then make Rise their main roster
Noble might be a possibility but idk if they can pay a tier 1 salary. Good time for orgs like Rogue and Flyquests to enter the scene.
The buyout is 500k+ for the whole roster so it has to be a big org.
I can see CLG, Misfits, Rogue, SK ,Golden Guardians or Flyquest give Valorant a try, or even have orgs like Spacestation Gaming, eUnited and Dignitas returning to the scene
CLG makes sense to me because they have a female roster. Misfits and Rogue were also floating in my mind as well. I could also see an top tier org with a lower tier team dropping a current team for the Rise roster. (such as EG)
Considering that EG is currently rebuilding their team and there's already reported players going to the team (Aproto and YaBoiDre being those players) I doubt EG will do that and with VCT starting soon I doubt an org with already contracted players will drop them for a full roster.
I believe that it's gonna be either CLG or Dignitas picking up this Rise roster, and soon more orgs will come to the scene and pick up rosters from smaller orgs, Akrew and Radiance have really good rosters and any larger team can build a championship team using those players.
