Except he can make it as a coach somehow, though I doubt it. | ||

Competition in esports is super tough and once you are not close to the top anymore there is not much left. Except he can make it as a coach somehow, though I doubt it. Agreed. Sucks for Amazing that he feels betrayed, but losing your job is hard no matter where you are, and you're probably going out the door with a sour taste in your mouth regardless. Doesn't help that, unlike most jobs, the skills he's been training all this time are mostly inapplicable in other fields. | ||

Amazing isn't very good compared to other LCS talent, that alone is reason for him to get replaced. The other stuff probably has some truth in it, but we don't know how much it actually took part in leading to his release. | ||

More teams, no more fun modes to promote competitiveness, a 5v5 tournament bracket that mirrors the World championship, 1v1s with only 2 members from each region... Not sure why Riot wants "competition" between regions when it will be done in the off-season with hastily assembled teams, a likely broken pre-season patch and seemingly no monetary incentive to perform well. That was not what viewers meant when they said they wanted more international tournaments... | ||

Riot is pulling back on the 24 team EU plan, turning towards a double round robin best of 1 format like NA will have. | ||

I think equally as important is that G2 is one of the many teams that advanced beyond the initial round of teams for NA Franchising. But really thank god they aren't doing the 24 team plan. It sounded terrible, EU can barely field an LCS full of competitive teams, and then they wanted to double it? No thanks | ||

First of all, if neither G2 or Fnatic had made it through, the process would have been revealed as kinda a sham. They are easily top 5 Western teams. Second, the 24 team plan never made sense. People would only have watched "champions league" and maybe london league. Third, EU still is probably screwed unless more changes come. | ||

The teams whine because they suck at being businesses, they're still going to suck after Riot gives them slightly more money. | ||

My bets are on P1 and Flyquest also not making in. Possibly NV as well. | ||
