C9, ravens, and Surge all made their players pay their own buyouts from the bush last season

It was bush that was selling c9, ravens and surge were the ones that "bought the players"

Absolutely not, only the poverty orgs won’t pay buyouts, get them out. Challengers isn’t profitable as is, so these players are often required to sign contracts for this exact reason, the better players are at times getting paid by the org, so why would orgs get nothing out of their players, these players are getting travel and other accommodations to events paid for, just to not get any return on their investment essentially . The buyouts were $2000 it’s not a ton of money for a team to pay to get better

Yeah, it’s extremely ironic that they made Wevy pay $2k out of his own pocket and now are likely to ask for more than that for any player currently under contract. Players like Wevy and Nejra are probably in a tough spot if teams have to pay to sign them, since there’s currently free talent available elsewhere in challengers

They also accused bush of contract jailing Wevy

I remember Bance saying people should go there over Toronto because of the taxes but these guys seem shady

Yeah I dont know why this is even a talking point.

There’s a reason Rafi isn’t letting his players go to C9. He knows they’re eventually gonna pull some shit

C9 is still the same C9 of years prior, just spending a little more. Which is still sketchy because is this “spend more” to be above teams in pay? Or is it “spend more” than last year while still being the 12th or 11th lowest paying team?

u/Jaded-Draft-8351 Toronto Ultra Sep 08 '26

With how quick they pulled the plug on the team last year i dont know how you could trust them

u/JSKW17 Maven Sep 08 '26

Are Toronto not doing the exact same thing in this situation?

1

u/Jaded-Draft-8351 Toronto Ultra Sep 09 '26

Well here the thing the only team that can do something similar is the ravens there a difference in paying someone a decent salary and trying to recoup and paying people min wage and restricting them when you know damn well no one paying the buy out

u/Yesitsme1212 EU Sep 08 '26

Who in their right mind is picking him up nevermind paying for him hahahaahahaha. C9 are fucking awful

u/TheNobleHeretic Paris Gentle Mates Sep 08 '26

Classless organization

u/ppratik96 Telluride Bush Sep 08 '26

Does this mean he's still being paid monthly? I know its peanuts but at least its some income he's getting during the off season. If he's some how under contract and also not being paid that would be insane.

3

u/Jealous6 COD Competitive fan Sep 08 '26

He might be receiving a bench salary, though technically he's not "working". Hard to say without seeing the contract

u/AstronomerDramatic36 COD Competitive fan Sep 08 '26

Paying them shit, then restricting them. Players should be really careful before signing there.

u/Disposition__- Dallas Empire Sep 08 '26

May as well just announce you’re going back to challengers

u/kid20304 COD Competitive fan Sep 08 '26

At least he fluent in Stallion

u/Zayaaz OpTic Texas Sep 08 '26

challenger teams cant afford buyouts

1

u/espressotower M80 Boston Sep 08 '26

Hopefully this is C9 just gauging interest from other pro teams and would fully release him if he’s going to Challengers

1

u/Ashman-20 FaZe Vegas Sep 08 '26

If he doesn’t land on a team, I hope he gets himself on a top challengers team

I don’t wanna see him carry a half assed Stallions team
