alfa with his dad in germany 😌 his fnatic jacket i love that

Danya's always gonna be a one of a kind. I'll never forget him, I didn't know him personally, but I will never forget him. Many great memories of him streaming late at night, I only wish I could go back and watch them again. He is a legend. Rest in power, til we meet again Danya.

Like I said we did not donate $300,000 in subs. Furthermore, I understand it may not feel that way, but we do invest much more than that in Challengers every year. It takes several millions of dollars to run all these Challengers leagues and Ascension tournaments around the world. That said, we’ve been working for a long time to improve the ecosystem for non-partner teams in the VCT and are getting close to shipping some exciting changes. Stay tuned.

I'm currently looking for new opportunities. Having worked with some of the biggest organizations and content creators in sports, esports and gaming, I want to add value and quality to new brands, creators, and projects 🫡 ✉️ DMs are open Likes/RTs are very much appreciated 🙏

TLDR: Scammed by Calyx, Riot’s TO. Riot stepped in for Valorant but refused to do the same for LoL. This has been one of the most frustrating experiences of my career. I’m speaking up now to make sure future talents, players, and orgs don’t suffer in silence like we did. In 2024, me and all AL talents were not paid for multiple projects, raising serious concerns about pursuing this as a full time career under Riot Games. How safe is it? Is this always going to be the case? Last week, we finally found the right contact at Riot EMEA to help us. After some back and forth, we discovered that Riot EMEA uses two different "operational frameworks" for League of Legends and Valorant. For Valorant? It’s simple. If the TO doesn’t pay on time or issues arise, Riot Games steps in and covers the losses. Everyone gets paid. But for League of Legends? That’s where the “different operational framework” comes in. Riot Games EMEA does NOT cover any losses related to League ERLs. Logical? I don’t think so. But even then, I wouldn’t interfere in how they run their business. What made this even worse is that after explaining this double standard to us… Riot ghosted us. No follow-up, no solution, no support. Just silence. So what’s the problem? Two major issues: A clear, unfair disparity between the two games. It makes zero sense to anyone working in League of Legends. Absolutely no communication from Riot Games informing talents of this rule, where they only refuse to cover unpaid dues in one of their two MENA esports ecosystems. To make things worse, Riot’s only offered “support” was to push Calyx by talking to them. No legal action, no enforcement, just conversations. That’s all. Meanwhile, our money remains unpaid. We’re now preparing to take legal action ourselves, with our own money. Hopefully, it’s not too late. I’m posting this to shed light on the unfair, unprofessional, and biased system at Riot Games EMEA. All I want is my rightful payment, now totaling over 10,000 dollars. I know I've been speaking about this a lot, but I believe it’s my duty to expose this system for the sake of future talents and anyone working in AL. If you’re scammed in Valorant, you're safe. If you're scammed in LoL, your money won’t come back. And Riot won’t warn you about this rule until it’s too late. So if you ever face this situation, take legal action and speak up. Don’t be afraid to lose an opportunity. Staying silent only breeds more corruption. I hope this reaches Riot Games EMEA so they can fix their system, give us our money back, and prevent this from happening again. Always stand up for your rights, no matter the consequences. @riotgames @MarcMerrill @RiotGrasshopper @RiotSphinx88 @RiotMAXtheX @arbykov
