First Time In Esports History, Cloud9 Reveals Financial Contract Details
Esports is surely not a new kid on the block anymore despite its relatively short life span compared to other industries. One of the matters that endured the test of time throughout this period was the announcement of financial contract details of players acquired by teams. So far, no one had taken a step in the name of transparency until Cloud9 finally stepped up to change the game forever.
Recently, North American organization announced that they signed up Alex “ALEX” McMeekin for their CS:GO roster. This was an ordinary news on its own until they surprised everyone by revealing the contract details with the player. Henry “HenryG” Greer also added a statement to this announcement.
With this “revolutionary” move, it is expected to see the same steps taken for following players who will join the new Cloud9 CS:GO roster in near future. From the very beginning of esports, people always wanted to know such details and teams never shared it. Financial details of contracts were always kept private for many reasons, though we may be seeing more organizations stepping up to provide full transparency in esports business.
