Riot responds to ‘inaccurate reports’ of LCS franchise fees getting suspended

Riot Games has responded to multiple League of Legends reports regarding the financial stability of the LCS. Three separate reports made this weekend by content creator Cristopher “Montecristo” Mykles, Luis Mira of Dexerto, and Kevin Hitt of the Sports Business Journal claimed that the LCS is allowing teams to defer franchising fees until a later date to reflect the current climate of the league’s struggling economics. 

Riot Games has shut down these reports, calling them “inaccurate.”
