Only 3 LCS organizations will participate in NACL this summer

As MSI rages on across the pond, Riot Games confirmed on May 12 that after just one split of the North American Challengers League, the requirement to hold an NACL roster is no longer mandatory for each LCS team. Subsequently, the majority of the LCS pulled the plug on the academy project in what is a gut punch to the development of North American League talent.

Since Riot’s announcement, each of the ten LCS organizations has made a decision to stay or depart from the NACL—a choice that every LCS organization approached Riot for earlier this spring. In total, only three of the 10 teams have decided to remain in the NACL in a move that will have ramifications affecting the future of the region.
