He will make new brands with team tinker/secter with LoL teams and focus on other titles with EG (like Halo). | ||

Nope he doesnt own them. He sells sponsorships for 3 teams now, and potentially more in the future. | ||

Lol, Redox, pls :D People were saying same shit when [A] appeared in 2013. It's same in football, agencies behind teams are way more powerful than teams itself. Alex lost nothing in this, but won players. I'm only interested in brands now. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + YG are dropped down to LSPL, 1-2 defeats to VG.S and EP.C dashes their LPL return dreams Energy Pacemaker are the first team to qualify for the newly expanded LPL 2-0 over VG VG 2-0s EP.C to claim the second expanded slot, note that EP.C was the team that held the slot for kakao/rookie so they are not going to LPL | ||

Yeah the football example kind of demonstrates what I mean, hyperbole into utter nonsense.

So lets specify, what kind of power do they have? Do they command roster changes? Can they force results? | ||

Read this at least. http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/3277/la-liga/2013/12/19/4489797/the-falcao-factor-how-third-parties-gatecrash-footballs-transfer- It's real net worth for Riot, losing EG/[A] brand is hilariously weird, EG is biggest established esports team in West, not even TSM is close. But Alex doesn't lose anything, players are still his, so if someone buys Froggen/Pobelter, it's net worth win for him. I hope, Maelk is going to have okay name for org. GEM is probably good example of selling players, like, First, YoDa and bunch of others have teams but rights for them are GEMs most likely. On less serious note, Incredible Miracle and HUYA Tigers just qualified for OGN 2015 Spring (can i call them LCL finally?), not spoiling it because other thread spoiled everything, | ||

Also in Alliance roster in control by players and they choose who to kick etc. | ||

And I have even heard of football transfers where money of clubs was involved and where clubs had an influence about where a player goes. Do you really not see it? You go from the obvious "agencies have an influence in football transfers" to the ridiculous "agencies are more powerful than clubs". | ||

China already proved 2 years ago that it's completely impossible to enforce one-team-per-organization in ONE region. Riot acting like they can enforce it across EVERY region is an obvious bluff. | ||
