Riot Games, the developer of the popular game League of Legends, has recently issued a warning to professional players that the upcoming season may be cancelled if the ongoing player strike continues. The strike, which began in June of 2020, was organized by the Professional Esports Association (PEA) in response to Riot Games’ decision to reduce the number of teams participating in the North American League Championship Series (LCS).

The PEA argued that the reduction of teams would lead to fewer opportunities for players and coaches to make a living. In response, Riot Games has proposed a new structure for the LCS that would include more teams and a higher minimum salary for players. However, the PEA has rejected this proposal and is continuing its strike.

In response to the ongoing strike, Riot Games has now warned professional players that the upcoming season may be cancelled if the strike continues. This would be a major blow to professional players, as it would mean they would not be able to compete and earn money from their passion. It would also mean that fans would not be able to watch their favorite teams compete in the LCS.

Riot Games has also warned that if the strike continues, it may be forced to take legal action against the PEA. This could lead to further disruption of the LCS and potentially even more serious consequences for the professional players involved.

It is clear that Riot Games is taking this situation very seriously and is doing its best to ensure that the upcoming season goes ahead as planned. However, it is also clear that the PEA is not willing to back down and is determined to continue its strike until its demands are met. It remains to be seen how this situation will play out, but one thing is for sure: professional players and fans alike are hoping that a resolution can be reached soon so that the upcoming season can go ahead as planned.
