I don't expect Axiom to join, eSF, but I'm glad that Azubu has, I don't know why, but I am.

I think they joined the wrong side. Kespa is so much more powerful and being on TV provides so much sponsor exposure.

If only they had joined kespa instead. It would have been so much easier. But i guess they dont want to since the kespa team league goes still on for another 10months and i dont think they could have joined mid way.
Anyone who follows LoL know how big of a force azubu is to recon with. Forecasting a long and painful strugle between esf and kespa.

frost and blaze are a part of CJ Entus now

That's definitely interesting. If Frost and Blaze are still on Azubu, then this move would meant a lot more to KeSPA than it is right now.

Looks like we're gonna have a true long league of GSTL coming up this season like Proleague. That's the only reason Azubu and Axiom joined GSTL. Looking forward for the announcement.

I still hoped that they go to KeSPA though... I mean why are ppl calling kespa the dark side? any company would want to gain monopoly. It's just how economics run in the esports scene. I wouldn't call kespa the dark side..

Don't you think it's already the case ? Kespa almost has the monopoly when it comes to "control" the starleagues players and to a lesser extent MLG ? (although i'm not sure)

I wish more team would've joined eSF tbh.. I don't see anything wrong if they becomes more and more like KesPA but at least they'll both be forced to be more lenient when it comes to rules.

More like the one-sided, made out of horror stories, "KeSPA is evil" stereotype. Typical on accounts created after 2010 and reddit.

But hey, I guess shitting on SlayerS is a-OK.

You can't deny that at least some of the horror stories are true, like how they almost DQed Stephano, and did actually DQed Leta.

It is very expensive to become a kespa team and they probably wouldn't make it in the competition in pl anyway imo. It also has to do with the audience the team wants to reach out to

AZUBU seems kinda unstable especially after their LoL teams moving to CJ Entus. I really hope joining eSF make a difference in their stand in eSports.

Stephano got a warning and that's it. "Almost got DQed" and "didn't get DQeed because of his opponent" is pure speculation at this point.

And they actually changed the rules after the GG incidents prior to Stephano. The rules were created for a reason, as bullshit as they look on paper. I'd be more concerned if they don't enforce their own rules (very detrimental to the rules authority) rather than learn and adapt after the fact.
