A day after many pros publicly complained about not being paid their promised Apex Legends Global Series winnings, it appears that many of those players have finally received their promised payouts. The payments didn’t come without any shortage of public outcries, however. And many players think that’s the only reason those payments were finally completed in the first place.
While sometimes having to wait a few months for payment from an esports tournament isn’t unheard of, the issues specifically revolving around ALGS cropped up yesterday after Moist Esports’ Wxltzy noted that he and his team were about to go play in the Split One Playoffs LAN while they still hadn’t been paid their winnings from the ALGS Championship LAN from July 2022. His story was subsequently amplified by Full Squad Gaming’s Jake Lucky. As if by magic, the payments for many players affected by lengthy waits materialized.
