Cannot deny it as M80 has been on and off in the tier 2 scene for a while. It looks like they've finally made the choice to get out and stop wasting money.
M80 was a great ORG for putting the time and money into these players, unfortunately they weren't able to succeed in their mission.

For those unaware of why M80 would be leaving... Sato, and either Bao or Okeanos will be joining LEV to complete their new T1 roster. I'm sure once their players were getting poached from them they decided to move on.

What does this mean for Victor/Chet? Unsure, more information to come within the next couple days.

Leaving because you sold players makes no sense, you just profited?

No, the goal of M80 was to enter T1 via ascension, they choked two years in a row whilst being the favorites to win, and their best players just got poached by a tier 1 team. They're not profiting, they're wasting their time

probably because their ascension project is gone, they likely don't wanna hold the players, got the payment and will end up leaving on a good note instead of trying to rush another project since they basically only have one split left
