Lemondogs lose LCS spot

Due to incomplete paperwork, the Lemondogs are removed from the European LCS.  SUPA HOT CREW XD, Ninjas in Pyjamas, and MeetYourMakers will play a tiebreaker tournament to decide the final spot.

Though details are unclear, Nick Allen announced that the Lemondogs will not be able to compete in the LCS due to failure to submit paperwork.
 

Lemondogs has failed to submit satisfactory paperwork and will be removed from the EU LCS. Stay tuned for details around the tiebreaker.

According to eSports journalists on Twitter, the teams who originally failed to qualify for the split in the Promotion, SUPA HOT CREW XD, Ninjas in Pyjamas, and MeetYourMakers, have a chance to compete for the recently vacated spot.

Reactions are mixed, but everyone has an opinion.  It seems strange that Riot would release press explaining their stance on Lemondogs keeping the LCS spot the day before the team is is dropped for a failure to complete paperwork.  Some feel sorry for the players signed by LD, and Mike "Wickd"​ Peterson, top laner for Alliance, stated that, in the interest of fairness, it's good that the Lemondogs lost their spot.
 

I am quite happy that LD lost the spot and In my opinion it's for the best that NiP, Supa Hot Crew and MYM gets to play for the last spot.

For the most part, however, the community seems excited for the surprise promotion tournament that will likely take place some time this weekend.  GosuGamers will release details as they become available.
