Episode 009 - Team Shake-Ups & Roster Changes

In this episode we look into a topic that we have discussed briefly in previous episodes: the state of the team environment where players are seemingly bouncing between teams on a regular basis. Is this a product of the community in general, the players themselves, or the organizations employing them? We talk at length about the effects of player shifts and roster changes, the implications of such behavior, and how e-sports can make a change for the better. Tune in to find out what we think about the state of professional teams in some of our favorite games. *Note: This episode originally aired on March 26, 2019.*

Our opinions are on full display in this episode, with many objections to the current state of the agreement. Tune in and let us know what you think about the "Gentleman's Agreement." *Note: This episode originally aired on March 19, 2019.*
