Frederik “acoR” Gyldstrand could be one of the players who would be busy answering calls from potential suitors. In a sitdown with Dust2.dk, the 25-year-old hinted at the possibility of a time when it might prove challenging for GamerLegion to hold onto talents like 23-year-old Ivan “iM” Mihai and 20-year-old Kamil “siuhy” Szkaradek.
“I would probably count on many of the players on the team getting offers from other teams. Of course, I can't speak for myself, I'm probably getting a little older compared to what many people think. It's hard to say, but I believe that there will be team offers left and right for the young guys on the team.”
The question of salaries will undoubtedly pose a challenge for GamerLegion as they strive to retain their emerging superstars on the team.
“You can't really do anything about it. If a tier-1 team comes knocking on a guy who gets 20.000 DKK ($2900) a month and he gets an offer of 150.000 DKK ($21.700). There is no one who can say no to that. You get to play all the high and good tournaments and be in the tier-1 tournaments all the time.”
