T1 Leaker Summary
My post was removed from r/leagueoflegends for breaking the rules (it was a shit post anyway xD i just ran it through google translate). Anyway do I have this right?
- Zeus and Kiin are managed by two different agencies but only on paper (same "root" / implied collusion)
- T1 had a verbal agreement to sign Zeus but the agency bluffed & asked T1 for a ridiculously high $$$ to buy time
- So T1 asked this agency to let them know what their intentions are before Kiin re-signs (so T1 can grab him if they can't get Zeus)
- But this agency ghosted T1 until after Kiin re-signed to GenG
- When negotiations began again on Nov 19, T1 had the intention of spending more to keep Zeus
- But then this agency told T1 that HLE offered more (not even $400k more) and ghosted T1
- After being mental boomed by these series of actions, T1 quickly contacted Doran's agency and signed him
- T1 always wanted to retain ZOFGK
- To keep the ZOFGK branding they were ready to give the players whatever they wanted + multi-year contracts
- Zeus' agent walked a fine line between legal and illegal to fuck T1 over so all of T1 is mental boomed right now
- T1 will dig to find whatever they can to serve them papers
- T1 is enraged and is in vengeance mode (they will contact TV stations, find whatever they can to sue these guys, etc.)
- T1 intended to brand around ZOFGK to be the successor to Faker
- T1 had a verbal agreement and was finalizing signing Zeus but that and Plan B / Plan C all foiled
- T1 lost their ZOFGK brand, their merch cancelled, have nothing left to lose so they're on a bloodthirsty crusade against Zeus' agency
- Overheard T1 COO shout he swears on his name he will never forgive them
- "And if that was really all they did, T1 wouldn't be on this crusade, there's something even more fucked..."
