EMEA Masters is back for Spring.
Shorter. Sharper. Same hunger. Every match hits different when thereโs no room for mistakes. ๐ฅ

About the Diable trade: after the issue, FearX probably assumed that Diable had no intention of renewing his contract. For the team, rather than waiting for his contract to expire, it would be much more beneficial to sell him and get both money and a player in return.
According to the report by Seoul Sports, KeSPA (Korean Esports Association) may refuse to participate in the 2026 @ENC_EN
Seoul Sports reports that Esports Foundation, the host of the ENC, has been indirectly attempting to force certain players to be included in Korea's ENC rosters, which would be intervening with KeSPA's strict selection process.
An esports official related to the situation stated to Seoul Sports "Intervention in the formation of the national team itself went too far. Each country has its own system, which is disrespectful. Although the size of the tournament is highly publicized, considering the nature of the national competition, I wonder if Korea should go."
In a response to the allegations, Esports Foundation PR representative has stated "We will let you know after checking with the headquarters the exact details of whether Korea has expressed its intention to participate or has designated a national team."

EDIT: It has been noted that the Korea's page on ENC website has been quietly removed over the weekend.
I surely know Ice and Sheo played really well in LEC for past few years, but what I want to say is they are currently struggling so much and their current form don't fit to LEC.
