Sure, but lots of jobs have clauses that forbid you to work for a competitor for x months after you leave.


Edit: Moreover it is probably not the best comparison between a usual job and a lcs player. Rather look at traditional sports where you can't just quit and go to another team whenever you feel like doing so.

Here most contracts can potentially let the company invoke that clause when you leave them/they fire you, however it also includes a compensation (because you're basically unable to find a decent job since they don't let you work in your field, unless you have other qualifications). So it's something they can do, but they usually skip because it costs them money.

In the present case you have to pay them money if you wanna go elsewhere. Granted, there are usually big fees for player transfers in other sports (which transit between the teams more than the players).
Cant take LMS hipsters serious.

I can only see this as Gamsu going to a better team. No wait it's dig. Kicking your best player makes 100% sense!

Are you saying that Helios will only play with Avalon? Dig should keep Core/Gamsu, but if they got rid of one (for foreign limits?) then you'd think it would be Core.

It makes no sense for them to kick either players. Helios would be an upgrade over Azingy for sure though.

They don't need to sacrifice anyway.
Gamsu/CoreJJ
Helios
Shiphtur/KiWiKid

Perfectly fine setup if we need to avoid limits.

Helios isn't a resident yet, he was only grandfathered in because he was already on winterfox/EG but he can't join another team with 2 foreigners.

So you want to tell me that

Gamsu/CoreJJ
Helios
Shiphtur/KiWiKiD

is different from

Avalon/Imagine
Helios
Pobelter/Altec

?

This case is specifically mentioned as being permissible on Riot's Interregional Movement Policy page:

Team is starting three residents [Shiphtur, Kiwi, Azingy], two non-residents [Core, Gamsu], and wants to replace a resident [Azingy] with an exempt non-resident [Helios].


http://na.lolesports.com/articles/interregional-movement-and-expansion-tournament

I don't think Helios is very good, but he is way better than Azingy. Plus, I guess it could make sense with the two Korean players. I still don't know why Azingy was ever an option for Dig in the first place.

The rules on this were pretty poorly worded (I don't think Riot knew exactly what they wanted at the time of writing), but the situations are slightly different.

Bjergsen/Lustboy followed by adding Santorin was a case of 2 exempted non-residents adding 1 more exempted non-residents (all 3 played in either NA LCS or CS by the time the rule was passed, IIRC). TSM was restricted from adding a non-exempt non-resident, so it was either resident or exempted non-resident.

Helios followed by Avalon/Imagine was 1 exempt non-resident followed by 2 non-exempt non-resident. Bad wording of the rules here, as the common interpretation was that it shouldn't have been possible. But it seems that with 1 exempt non-resident, you can still add 2 non-exempt (similar with Impulse having XWX, then added Impact/Rush).

Gamsu/CoreJJ followed by Helios would be 2 non-exempt non-resident followed by 1 exempt non-resident. Looking at the news article on this here, that's actually explicitly listed as a permissable scenario.

I still contend that that rules page was edited at some point, it seemed so clear when first posted.

On the contrary I feel like people had trouble understanding what the wording would mean in different situations ever since the rule first came.

Also is Lustboy really exempt? The rule was introduced before he joined TSM.
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

Lustboy joined a little over a month before the rule was implemented (he first played towards the end of July; rule was added in September)

Also, I would argue that the initial ambiguity that people had over the Winterfox/Impulse plans is a sign of poor wording of the rule. It shouldn't have been so controversial on first sight.

Same thoughts as me and now C9 have no choice but to replace Hai.

? There seemed to be a buyout clause in it but CLG refuses to accept it. All he's learning is that people are assholes and will be assholes if given the chance. Seems it's a case of the buyout clause being more like a "suggestion" than an actual clause. Either that or CLG is just full of shit and he can leave if he wants.
