    In that case, that sounds like a really insecure partner and that there are bigger issues to address.

    In the buyout agreement for Perkz this time last year, @G2esports and @Cloud9 agreed to put a clause that would prevent @C9Perkz from moving to @FNATIC for the next three years. Despite that, Riot Global found it's caused no harm to Perkz's prospects. dotesports.com/league-of-legeโ€ฆ

    Sources: @Cloud9 have made verbal commitments to both @G2esports and @G2Perkz to acquire the Croatian mid laner from the #LEC championship team. A deal cannot be finalized in writing until Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. ET, but both teams were able to come to terms on Thursday.

    Cody coming out of journalism retirement with the biggest story in gaming of the past few years. Iโ€™m so glad we at ESPN never acquiesced to Dr DisRespectโ€™s PR peopleโ€™s bullshit by giving him a softball interview โ€” where they requested we not ask about it โ€” in summer 2021.
    He got banned because got caught sexting a minor in the then existing Twitch whispers product. He was trying to meet up with her at TwitchCon. The powers that be could read in plain text. Case closed, gang.

    Sources: @FNATIC will sign @YamatoMebdi as their new head coach, marking his return to coaching in Europe ahead of the 2021 season. In 2020, YamatoCannon became the first Westerner to coach a League of Legends team in South Korea when he joined SANDBOX Gaming.

    BREAKING: The majority of @overwatchleague teams have hired a British law firm to collectively bargain against Activision Blizzard amid growing frustrations around operation costs, lackluster viewership and a distinct lack of a path to profitability.

    Today was my final day at ESPN, as I requested to be let go early. Thank you to all my colleagues for everything the past four and a half years. I've got some Wolf bombs ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿ’ฃ of my own up my sleeve. Stay tuned.
