Thanks to both of you for pointing this out. The ESPN article originally said that he couldn't sign with NRG and I didn't realize it had been updated or sinatraa had called it out. I've decided to take the paragraph out entirely.

Looking for Sponsor find their sponsor

Thanks for the catch, I missed that. It should be updated now!

Back when they announced Jake was going to join the talent lineup, they said he would be a caster rather than a desk analyst. Custa would likely be on the desk with someone else.

DoA actually specifically clarified that he didn't say he was quitting.

Update:

• Defiant part with Mobydik

Update:

• Outlaws hire Dream as assistant coach
• ESPN reports Fleta traded to Dragons

Also as a note, players that re-sign with their team or have their team option picked up will not go here. That news, such as Logix rejoining the Defiant, will go on the free agency tracker.

Additionally, announcements that players who are already under contract with their team are rejoining them for next season, such as the announcement the Charge made by Rio, will not be covered. We're going to treat those situations as assumed facts and don't want to clog our offseason coverage with them.

This is updated to reflect recent moves

Sorry about the sparse info on player names for now. That will updated soon. 😅

They officially dismissed him later (https://www.over.gg/12160/justice-officially-dismiss-sleepy).

Listing rosters at this point in the offseason is a bit hairy. A player could be a free agent right now, however the team may intend to re-sign them (for example, ArK is officially a free agent however the Justice have not stated that he is leaving the team. That suggests they may be trying to keep him still). It's hard to know exactly who is staying with the team until we're late enough into free agency that teams are signing new players.

Sorry I was dumb and totally forgot about NeXT. The article has been fixed.

Update:

• Dynasty let go of KDG

Update:

• NamedHwi leaves, EQO and neptuNo now subject to team option, SADO under contract
• Gladiators bring back dpei as head coach and GM
• Gido declares his free agency

Unfortunately, Korea has played their Contenders matches online for the entirety of 2019.

One thing I'd like to make clear that I believe I failed to do in the article:

Each region will continue to play entirely within their region. Teams in the Pacific Division will not play each other except for competitions like the Showdowns, and teams within the Atlantic Division won't play each other either. There will not be cross-region play in a typical Contenders tournament.

I will update the article to make this more clear.

This has been updated with the changes that have occurred the past few days.

Update:

• Shock part ways with Nevix
• Defiant release im37, designate RoKy as two-way

i'm putting the defiant on probation for announcing the release of two players within one hour and then announcing the release of a third two hours later

I get why birdring was let go, he just hasn't been consistent for the past two seasons (even though injury is partly to blame) and can get letting Guard go if they think they can potentially land someone better. I don't understand letting NUS go, however there is a lot in the skillset of main supports that we can't see. Perhaps his ult tracking or shot-calling isn't to the level that they would like it to be.

That being said, I think all three players will end up on new teams.

Update:

• Defiant let Gods become free agent
• Fl0w3R becomes free agent

Update:

The Florida Mayhem have decided not to renew five of their team options. Those five players are now listed as free agents.
