GC players are not restricted by import rules

IGL is CLZ

He was constantly hyped up as the next upcoming Japanese talent, yet his performance in tier 1 has been disappointing. Only good play he made so far was the sheriff clutch which PRX tossed.

He's currently focusing on his wrist recovery, aiming to return for stage 2. You can watch this video he did on t3xture's Youtube

They had a tough group, didn't adapt to the Neon meta and severely underperformed in the rematch against Sentinels

Most of these MVP's are to push narratives. Riot is clearly trying to push KK as the "Faker" of China and force the back to back Masters winner story on Meteor

Do you think they regret wasting all the time and money investing in NA for the first 3 years? They could have came back to Korea long before franchising and perhaps achieved more

First you say he baits then you say he loves taking early gunfights. Make it make sense

i agree its a risky play. but he looks stupid cause he died. if he wins the fight, which he did against t1 in the first game, he looks like a god

his neon is reasonable enough

lol

He rarely entries and has a very instalock baiting jett gameplay style

kk is anything but a baiter. did you watch the game? look at his fkfd stats

Korea* has the best controller players

t1 trolled the map veto in the first series. they can definitely win the rematch with sylvan playing

That can't happen. 1st seeds can't play each other

CNY actually last for 15 days

y’all literally threw against zeta during the regular season to avoid geng

Separating Korea and Japan from APAC means you're taking away the region with the largest talent pool and the largest fanbase. Pacific will be ruined at that point

?

It can't be lowering their budget cause free1ng is definitely cheaper than foxy. Plus foxy had a buyout as he was rfa

Can't doubt Termi when DRX has constantly made 5-6th. Its gonna take time cause its essentially a new team

Hopefully he keeps up with his form while doing his service. zunba said he got a few tryouts but didn't get through. Its hard to keep your form after such a long break

Name a Korean player that is available which is an upgrade for Meteor. There's none. Meteor wanted to leave for the bag its as simple as that.

He's playing with FiveK on F4Q. Also solo doesn't rate Suggest highly anymore, cause after his time on DFM he took a long break and stopped playing the game

So did Estrella when he played in tier 2

And what did Kush achieve when IGLing AE? Estrella gets RRQ to playoffs after constantly missing out on top 6 and all he gets is hate from Indos

Because money. An esports pro player's career is extremely short and even more for Meteor who has to do his military service soon.

No obviously the trial was just a formality. I'm just saying Meteor did trial for T1

Not true. Meteor said himself that he did trial the day his contract ended. It was extremely quick and he got signed almost immediately

What are you talking about? Meteor was going head to head against KangKang in 2022

Because he hasn't op-ed in a long time and you can tell. There's a reason why Meteor stopped playing Jett on Split. He said his op-ing felt rusty so he asked the coaches to just put him on full time sentinel

This core almost made Ascension + Dep and Sugar has played together for 2 years

He's always been but people see ZETA lose and think he sucks

Because an open circuit is less profitable? Unless they get sponsors from gambling sites etc. Also having a dozens of TOs will just lead to situations where the TOs don’t pay like what happened with Nerdstreet

I don't understand these complains. Tier 1 is barely or not even profitable, of course Riot is going to need as much as they can get for tier 2. SEA fans constantly complain about Riot prioritizing Korea, saying Jake Sin is bias but they try to get sponsors for tier 2 and y'all still complain. If you cared so much about your scene, just watch it on SOOP.

and people were complaining about china getting their own region

Munchkin probably re-signed. Meteor doesn't seem interested in re-signing from his stream. Lakia hasn't said anything...

DRX has swapped their duelist twice already (Rb & Foxy9), only to go back to BuZz in the end. Hyunmin better be good cause BuZz ain't going to be there to fall back on if the rumours are true.

What does Egoist have to do with this situation? Yes, Bleed is a shitty org. But the players are innocent, they should get the chance to find another org.

Isn't sScary an unrestricted free agent?

They still lost at the end of the day. Who cares if they were 3 rounds or 0.05s away? We could also say they were 1 round away from getting 3-0ed.

But now we’re talking about a different case where the org fks up. If the player stopped performing well after ascending then they should be dropped. I’m not denying that.

You mention not signing the TPA and that’s exactly what happened last year with The Guard. But the players were given the opportunity to find an org, why is it not the case with the Bleed players

If that’s the case, then its even better as they aren’t contracted to Bleed. Riot should be allowing them to find another org or Boom should be picking them up since they’re UFA now

Encouraging players to sign with good orgs isn’t protecting the players. You can sign the best contract with the best org, and that org can still fk up. Now you are without a job when its not even your fault

So when the org fks up there’s no protection in place for the players? The players choosing to play for Bleed doesn’t mean they are at fault for the orgs wrongdoings

That doesn’t justify allowing the Boom players into franchise over the 2/5. Sscary and crazyguy won Ascension fair and square. The Boom players had their chances and tossed it

Crazyguy Sscary Deryeon? The core 3/5 is still there

Well Bleed didn’t have a choice as Juicy was underage and Neph has military (though he got exempt). Crazyguy played during Kickoff so Bleed still had the core 3/5 in the beginning

Shouldn’t the Bleed players be given the chance to look for another org like The Guard last year? Or if Riot is going to let Boom into franchise, they should be picking up the Bleed core.

Isn’t it unfair to allow the team that lost in the finals into franchise over the team that won fair and square last year?

Why is so many trying to rebuild DRX22 on T1? Its just going to be a worse version without BuZz & MaKo, the two best players. Also Rb has said he isn’t going back to Pacific next year and will still be playing for TEC

Even if SPG gets rejected, Riot isn't going to let Boom into franchise. That just goes against competitive intergrity. There's a bunch of Korean orgs that will jump on the opportunity to pickup the SPG players (Dplus, Hanhwa, Nongshim, KT)

Its hard in APAC cause its made out of multiple countries and there’s tons of language barriers
