Presumably the team will continue to play under a different name since they are qualified for HGC. Not sure what the new Naventic owner's plans might be... Some one buying Naventic with no teams or personnel is something I don't really see the value or point of since as far as I can tell they didn't have any teams for any other games besides HOTS.

No Tomorrow and Hold It Down were both recently sponsored - No Tomorrow a fair bit less recently.

Team Changes before Week 6:

In HGC China, eStar has disbanded and WKG has been relegated. New teams TheOne and Beyond the Game will be replacing them when HGC China resumes on Aug. 28.

In North America, Naventic's players have parted ways with the Naventic organization, and will play under the name Lag Force beginning with their series versus SpaceStation Gaming on Friday, Aug 25.

SpaceStation Gaming, a new esports organization, has signed the roster of No Tomorrow. The team has been boot-camping together in Salt Lake City ahead of their Week 6 debut against Lag Force.

The last two times these teams met under their old banners, SpaceStation took the win. We will see if parting ways with Naventic is the change Lag Force needed to flip the script during this next meeting.

Be sure to tune in to all the action starting this weekend when L5 takes on Team RRR Friday morning at 2:00 a.m. PDT / 11:00 a.m. CEST at www.playheroes.com/esports.

Since there are no reasons given I assume they were not happy with their perfomance? Or did I miss something?

Anyway, quite a pity. I liked them. Best of luck to them

Doesn't Diamond Skin lose their HGC spot now? Don't they have to retain at least three out of five? I remember that being a part of the reason B-Step split up. In which case, does Polska Pamieta have the rights to the spot, since Good Guys disbanded?

I believe they changed the rules so that a team can fire 2 people, but a 3rd can still leave on their own, without the team losing their spot. I can't really find where I read that, so I'm not 100% sure this is the case.

I read recently that DS don't lose the spot.
