https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Daily/Issues/2023/03/31/Esports/tsm-esports-league-of-legends-championship-series.aspx It's kinda terrifying these 2 former rivals and juggernauts of LoL are dying. Its truly the end of an era since they've have such a storied past since esports really took off in NA in 2010-2011. | ||

Money is drying up and the Big Tech industry are downsizing. And I think people attribute to Faze losing like 90% of their value on the stock market kinda proves there's so much overevaluation on esports brands. | ||

Esports def experienced a money bubble, it is harder to commercialize a scene that involves people sitting at home rather than going to a stadium and buying merchandise directly. VC is realizing that and isn't going to throw endless money at teams anymore, not in this market. I think Imeant to say VC money as the cause.Pointing to Big Tech since they’re going through the same problems. I hope TL Pro keeps doing well. It seems they have way better teams but they’re probably hurting. I saw some blogpost somewhere that we’re probably going to see esports orgs work more like talent agencies (like vtuber or idol agencies) now. Granted that’s been the case for years, I think C9 was the first org to hire personalities as part of their org. | ||

https://lolesports.com/en-US/news/announcing-lcs-classic-tsm-vs-clg I'll be at comiccon so I wont be able to check it out but I'll probably watch while I'm in line for something. Its still crazy to me how these brands are completely dilapidated. I was so certain the LCS spots would kept them relevant for many years. | ||
