NRG Breakdown With Thomas Watts
from Rough Drafts Podcast Hosted by Chase Wassenar 🌹
In today's very special edition of the Esports Gambling Hour Podcast, Chase "RedShirtKing" Wassenar sits down with LoL eSports writer Thomas Watts to discuss NRG eSports' recent purchase of Team Coast's 2016 NA LCS Spring Split spot. After expressing the importance of the autonomy of organizations like NRG to make the best decision for the future of their team, the two diverge into discussions on whether these types of moves are intentional aspects of the current system, whether such purchases devalue the importance of the Challenger scene, the lack of protection for players who have very different incentives from their organization's owners, and whether a potential franchise system at either the Challenger or Professional level would help or hurt these issues.
