Ehh, I'm a bit confused, however, I'm pretty sure Quantic pays for the flights and everything, since they're not in LCS (yet).

Quantic isn't associated with Riot (yet). Riot shouldn't be paying plane tickets or anything.

Sorry for creating confusion with the above, I actually wanted to quote this when asking who pays for it:

Oh!
It wouldn't surprise me if Riot supported them, given how you often heard rumours about them wanting to build a stronger challenger scene in the future.
Viewer-wise it's a bit problematic, of course. With a team like Curse however, and then possibly Quantic for the 10th spot, it should still pull a lot of viewers, but usually challenger teams are, for obvious reasons, not very popular.

I was gonna comment on how Most 3 was listed under KT on Score's friend list through his Inven Broadcast (happening now).. but I think he's mainly a Mid player, weird to see. MakNooN to the US?!
edit: Just realized, they could move ssumday to KT A and have no setbacks. ssumday to KT A?

I saw alex playing top on cyanide's stream and the shook/edward/froggen/freeze have been playing a bit of ranked 5s together so I guess there are hints. But who the fuck would pay for that, alliance? Besides they should totally get maknoon as top

No way it's Alliance, because then they might aswell just put all of them under the EG banner, with the better sponsors they have on that side of the organization.
Will be interesting, though. Maybe there is going to be a big bidding war of the big organizations.

I don't think froggen will leave EG he loves the other guys way to much.

holy shit if that's true then EG & Gambit might as well disband since their mainplayers are gone.
Froggen has played a ton of soloQ with edward though although that's more like we are goood friends and the only eu pros streaming at the moment.
Eddie and Alex have duo'd a lot, as well. But I thought that hinted more towards his return to Gambit :O.

Is clauf Azubu?
Edit: Just googled and I guess that's what you meant. I also saw that their headquarters are literally 10 minutes away from my place, maybe I should apply for an internship and find out what's going on, then sell infos to Slasher for big eSports money.

And NiP loses yet another player, and IMO Freeze is one of the stronger ADC's in Europe. Also Copenhagen Wolves loses their jungler. One of the prominent challenger teams.

Let's be honest, NiP is still bjergsen and his temps as long as they still have him they'll be good. Losing shook might be an unrecoverable move for copenhagen pups though even on a team with rekless and cowtard shook carries hard.

When I asked ocelote what going on in SK, he said lots of things are happening and we'd be surprised by the results. Not sure if he's serious or just hyping stuff up though.
NiP with kevin, hyrqbot, bjergsen, deficio seems really strong, why would freeze leave them?
|
Because Alex Ich, Shook, Froggen, Freeze, Edward seems stronger.
Although we should sit back and wait what happens first. Not sure about this "source"

Rumour Mill starting...
Travis Gafford @SotLTravis 2h Also several EU players moving to NA.
Travis Gafford @SotLTravis 2h Negotiations still active so nothing hard to report on. Will be attempting to work with players and organizations to break the news.
