yes should be a loss, but very expected from rito/TO.

edit: oh wait they changed the scoreline! seems fair?

insane day it is

kinda agree with this take. the team really only needed an igl, getting other good FAs is understandable but would cause role clash and eventually push someone out. feels a little bad for nivera, he was a decent sentinel pushed to an initiator role and not using chamber, can literally be a star player in another team. wouldnt really blame anyone its just what happens, but i wonder how the kc roster will look like. not too worried about liquid theyll do great i think.

l1nk has no problems playing as smokes btw

they are replaying

yeah round 18 onw replay it seems

oh no, now how do they get punished for that

but arent teams supposed to check with admins if some strat is ok to use or not, i wonder if they were given a go signal.

if the controversy happened at the same time, we will either see both g2 and sen out of franchising or both of them make it lmao.

sounds cap ngl

idk im really under the impression they wont make changes or maybe depend on the results of kick off tourny.

i am so confused with whats happening in latam lol

very interesting tho they put preference for english comms, fielding a mixed roster perhaps?

one is one too many lol. with how the regions are divided, it seems the playerbase do not have a very big difference, so unless one region has a significantly much larger playerbase than the other, i dont see the need to get imports yet, but i guess it brings some spice to teams. its just cool to support as many local talents as possible.

tbh i dont wanna see imports yet, but with na having much fewer slots and emea fielding internatl teams, i feel like the na to emea transfer is more likely than others. but how many emea teams? seems fut and bbl will be turkish teams, kcorp (?) might try a french speaking team, how about the spanish orgs, would at least one go full spanish? navi got fpx, fnc doesnt look like theyll import, emea FAs are also many so i doubt thered be lots of imports.

would it make more sense to be a 6th on a franchised team without certainty you would be able to play or just take the chance to compete in ascension? especially in NA where there are few slots, i see roster hopiums with a 6th man good enough to be in a starting roster but theyll either be benchwarmers or maybe they are next in line when someone doesnt perform as expected.

tl only really need an igl, changes other than that is understandable especially with so many FAs but imo not necessary.

sleeping on soulcas i see

nice theyve been needing a cracked sova player

tenz stays, and maybe only him lol

W pickup, L to my predictions

zyppan and cloud are both good. who knows maybe if ardiis doesnt stay, cloud or ssk might take his place.

there was already an article that navi is looking to sign the whole fpx roster apart from ardiis who is prolly still exploring his options.

NA money is good but with the few slots they have and good talent pool, kinda crazy they are interested in importing lol

that’s some insane hopium but quite fun lol

in the original vlr post, somebody did put a better translation of what the podcast is saying, so i think it’s more of a mistranslation of the person who reported/tweeted. still, even if it’s g2 people’s decision, we know how much influence riot has so who knows.

some people were scared of losing the g2 LEC spot. according to information that was shared with me (awaiting for other sources to completely confirm), It looks like riot told g2 ocelote was in a "blacklist" he cant take part on anything that concerns riot, and it looks like ocelote had to sell his g2 shares and thats why in his video he says he has nothing to do with g2 anymore'' his words, lot of ''looks like'' not sure, and Riot didn't force Carlos to sell his share (and they couldn't do that too). Basically just all from G2 investors were scared

actually amazing they qualify to internatl events, on hardcore mode

wow ardiis might be getting really good offers somewhere but yea hope they can stay as a team

ty

soon he gonna list all teams there lol

yeah he made a mistake, cost the org their slot, stepped down, i think thats so much more than enough. if this is true thats just meh. anyway who is the guy speaking

how are they trying to hide its really all over the news lol

both

would be a long time until feb, even the rosters formed before oct 15 are just for the soft lock and can still change until feb. teams would need time to trial.

why didnt they just apply themselves last time, are the odds that low.

twisten deserves to be on franchised team, i hope everything works out well for him

so is bleed making deals with various franchised teams? article says the merger deal last time is unrelated to GE. i really wonder what if they just applied themselves.

chronicle is super good and im not worried about the roles too much since he has good agent pool and can learn other agents as well but this can be bait since he been saying it too in last derke stream lol

who knows maybe only tenz remains on current roster lol

ngl i also think so lol

i believe in sgares and ddk and mikeshd

you need engagements i see

yes they kinda have no choice. also they can enter turkey easily before other countries so it’s possible its not the final destination

i see!

i also think it’s more characteristic of g2 but how are you guys sure it’s not liquid?

nah they drop everyone but one lol

yes. m3c and some asian teams (cr, zeta, vs, ts) have done it where 6th man only play certain maps. i think the rule is just to inform beforehand and get approval.

men im so happy for him/them. with ange1 being ukrainian too fits like a glove

if igl or team already have good vision it makes sense not to sign a coach first but i still think coach/support staff should get signed first especially if rebuilding.

franchised teams cant says here
