On Tuesday, he addressed Merrills thinking that the League of Legends Championship Series was a major profit investment for Dinhs organization and whether or not he was underpaying his players.First, Dinh stated The reason why I started to invest in other games was because LCS left me no choice. The relegation system is unstable and risky for everyone, other publishers are more collaborative and provide more opportunities for teams and players to mmake revenue.ddddddddddddMoving to his next point, he wrote that the LCS was stagnant in compensation and player stipends and that, despite the longer schedule with more games, the pay scale hardly budged even though the cost of player salaries, content production, support staff and housing costs are spiraling up.He defended his pay scale and claimed to be one of the top organizations in player compensation and post-retirement care. Dinh then reiterated his points from the original interview about how the timing of the patches deeply impacted both players careers and team choices.These points were mirrored in a video by outspoken League of Legends caster and analyst, Christopher MonteCristo Mykles. In his video, he said Riot was outdated in its treatment and payment of commentators, outlining a trend in Riots esport that extends to players and talent alike.My vlog on Tryndameres post on Reddit:https://t.co/yu6ZM6tuFa- MonteCristo (@MonteCristo) August 23, 2016It is not known if Riot will issue a response.
