Player salaries are so inflated that even if the player performs it’s probably not worth it, but some players have incredible agents which has lead to some insane signings.
Swordart to TSM for 6 mil still boggles my mind. No matter what angle you look at it, it makes no sense, except if someone was intentionally trying to sink the org.
TL Pyosik is another more recent one. Not nearly egregious but idk how there are people that get paid to make decisions like these.
I also wouldn’t be surprised if HLE’s owners don’t watch any League of Legends. They’re actually one of the richest orgs but year after year they put together the most frustrating rosters.
I‘ll throw the VIT signings of the last 2-3 years in the ring. I know its not really fitting to the question but having one top-tier roster after another and never beeing able to make it work makes me wonder if the VIT coaching staff is the worst signing deal ever haha
