again.... lippie definitely kicking back half his salary to immi. Or they are lovers.

schizo

Tenz is at the top mechanically and even he cant find success in VCT?

it does make sense to give your duelist back their gun for bonus round?

this guy is a bust even shanks is better than this.

Lets be serious if Immi wasn't C9 head coach wippie would be no where near that team.

tax returns rn fellow american

Turkey at the top of this list

steel and exalt as IGLs what more can i say...

Probably not since I’m guessing he was already on the minimum contract as he was a reserve player. He’s probably the reason the other players need to take salary reductions.

joshrt smilin for real

first yay and vanity. then leaf. now mce?

what does jack have against these guys

I promise you this is not a bait. I genuinely think EG used information gained by the reserve roster from their scrims against franchised teams to their own benefit. Why is that so hard to understand?

lmaooo conjecture? how else would he get these "different comps"

what the difference between sharing scrim vods and doing what EG did?

you can literally see bonkashi in that thread it had nothing to do with me.

any other nationality you do this to its xenophobic btw

tell me what I misunderstood?

I watched his video it still seems a little shady to me? bcj said this in his twitter post recently "We had to play all types of different comps because we would help prep the main team against certain teams specifically." To me this sounds very unfair. Scrimming a team under the guise of trying to improve your reserve roster. Then using what you learnt in that scrim to help the main roster against that comp or how to defend against different executes.

tell me what I misunderstood ?

no wtf?

Having your reserve roster scrim teams you're due to play against then practicing against them makes sense and is fair

"In 2018, Riot introduced franchising to the LCS and promised it would bring more stability by increasing salaries, forming a better amateur scene, and increasing investments via sponsorships. 5 years later, the amateur scene is dead, the region is filled with imports, and teams are looking to leave.
It's just funny to me how most people back then were extremely skeptical of Franchising in NA, but Riot kept assuring us how it was a good thing for the region. Now those very teams that Riot has supported has destroyed the scene by unanimously voting to not require Academy teams because of "finances". And right after voting, some of them are either looking to sell their spots or outright leave. Meanwhile, they're still willing to pay players millions of dollars while also looking for imports who rarely even fulfill their contracts and leave early.

According to C9, an amateur team costs roughly $900k a year to field including salaries, food, housing etc. Meanwhile, C9 Perkz was getting paid $2.7 million a year, TSM Swordart had a $3 million contract for 2 years, TL Jensen was getting paid $4.2 million for 3 years, and so on.

I have without a doubt that those teams saying that they can't afford to finance an amateur team would magically find the funds if someone like Faker, Chovy, Keria, etc., wanted to come and play in NA.

It feels like management were literally spending without care thinking that the money would come in forever. However, turns out fans and sponsors aren't too happy when their region continues to suck internationally. It also doesn't help that the scene is filled with imports, and many of these teams have 0 community engagement. Not only do they have 0 merchandise, but their YouTube, Twitter, and other social media channels are dead.

Don't know what Riot is going to do to help stabilize the scene, but everytime I think the region couldn't get worse, it does. While Franchising may have worked for other regions, the teams that Riot has chosen to support in the LCS have effectively destroyed the scene.

Edit: Did not expect this to get so much traction. Anyways, a lot of people are DMing me saying that Riot never supported franchising and that Orgs are solely to blame. Here's an article that Riot themselves posted in 2017 before it was decided which teams would be chosen for franchising.

Yes, there was a lot of mismanagement from orgs. But Riot oversees them and did little to nothing about it."
