I think it's his partnership and keyboard with wooting. he probably has to actively advertise them under his contract so it's a conflict with the Americas official peripheral sponsor
the fact that this is even up for consideration is crazy, they been looking at those viewership numbers dropping
I think the sponsorship also conflicts with sentinels with Razer for Wooting and Pulsar for TenZ. Cause pulsar is a sponsor for VCT Americas so I don’t see much conflict aside from Sen and TenZ sponsor clashing.
i think in general riot has a rule where players can’t get sponsorships outside the ones provided by vct
Leo Faria's kinda homeless so he'll give tenz a pass for sure. He needs this
Also Sen Razer Ultimate vs TenZ Pulsar mouse potentially some issue with contract obligation of sentinels with the mouse. It’s bit weird tho since Razer used to sponsor Zellsis and Zekken but those are gone from Sen so idk. I don’t think wooting is the sponsor issue since Riot doesn’t have a sponsor for keyboard. So it might just be that Sen had to update some contracts and those have to be approve through riot since riot also approve sponsors.
It would be the dumbest thing ever if Riot reject it for simply having different sponsors. This would be up there with Optic not getting into franchising.
he signed a pretty big deal with mibr, i dont think sen would buy his contract or mibr would let him leave

This is where Leo will once again fail, he won't fold even though he knows viewership would rise,
Someone needs to teach that guy and old lesson, a rising tide raises all ships
he will do everything in his power to bring tenz back to val no chance. Riot panders to tenz
im not 100% sure but i think riot has approved other players in the past who had sponsorship conflicts
We'll see, but it's all about Leo and Leo is a stickler for the rules, we saw that in the last week with the redraw
I saw on a different thread but I think it’s basically TenZ sponsored stream. Yesterday was Marathon so there could be more gaming stream sponsors TenZ signed that conflicted with Riot since ofc they are a game to. Riot also strict about other game sponsors to their players so I think this is the issue. So Riot needs fold ngl cause TenZ not canceling a bunch of deals.
I told yall this yesterday but it's SaltyMcNulty_ so why would you believe me? throw eggs at me, boo me. fk yall man
Not yet. Until now it was very unlikely that riot would approve it but now that the news is out of the bag and there will be public pressure on riot idk what they will do. But in general they are very strict about these sorta stuff. Rob Moore knows this and that's why he leaked the news so that there is public pressure on riot and he can escape scrutiny in case tenz doesn't get signed.
lol theres no way riot doesnt accept, if tenz comes back thats atleast x2 more viewership for vct americans alone, not to mention of sen makes another tourney the views would go up cuz of tenz
