As A Former Coach, WP Riot

Interesting, banned like banned from the LCS cause I looked it up but I didn't find Riot saying banned from the summer splits if they did I might need new glasses. Also great reconnaissance.

wow that sucks for the players. Thats a prime example of a student gets the whole class in trouble. However not going to lie I would LOVE to see Fabbyy - Meteos- and Trick2g in the LCS would be cool to see.

Essentially TDK, Renegades, and Impulse - as organizations - are no longer permitted to own teams in the LCS or any Riot-sanctioned league or event. So the organizations have to sell their spot and, hopefully, the contracts to another organization who is compliant with riot's rules. They have 10 days to complete this sale or else they lose it entirely and have nothing to sell. The players aren't implicated in this case, so are able to continue playing. If the contracts are purchased by the new organization, then they'll likely move there... otherwise, they can find another team.

yes and no. the OWNERS of renegades, impulse and tdk have to sell their rights to the teams (which will likely mean name changes, but possibly keep the same staff, some of it at least), but the teams themselves aren't banned from anything properly speaking. If they fail to sell, though, sadly, the teams will be disbanded by riot (let's be real, which lcs players would stay in a team that cannot even enter a challenger scene. it isn't technically one, but the outcome most certainly is)

If they do sell, however, past has shown us that the 2-3 core players from the team are likely to stay, and complimentary players will be kept / swapped accordingly to the owner's (and his counseling staff, old or new) perspective on the game. If i had to predict what will happen, i would say :

TIP - Team ImPulse : Not likely to be seen ever again. its financial problems will be troubling to any potential buyer, with reason. That is an unacceptable practice in any league that considers itself professional, and riot is rightfully doing their job here

REN - Renegades : If it's true Montecristo was implicated in the shady dealings (which, thus far, aren't even corroborated by appreciable evidence; Riot is really climbing on their high horses way too fast, or at least not being transparent enough on why they climb), then damn son, that's really bad. But for now, I'm waiting on Monte's official statements before i judge the issue. As for the Chris Badawi thing, he was banned, and if he really was part of renegades, they are right in punishing monte for defying their laws. he is a bit of a showoff, too, so in a way i wouldn't be too surprised to learn he did

TDK - Dragon Knights : Basically, all that happened with TDK was that they housed / paid players before after the trade with renegades, and didn't mention those services in the trade reports? i guess that's shady, in a sense, but in the end it benefits the player more than anything, no? shrugs maybe they think tdk and renegades used the trades to gather ''sensitive info''... im a bit confused on that one

as for players, i say seraph, crumbz, alexich, ninja and maybe gate will play in the summer split. there is room for them somewhere
