This appears to be a page for a gaming league that carries no notability. I'm dubious, as they cite they have sponsors, so I half expect there to be some disagreement - but I'm not seeing this fit into the general notability guidelines - and just because one has sponsors does not mean they meet those guidelines.

Delete dont see any signs of notability when i do a google news search (except a couple industry rags, not enough to pass GNG. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 10:04, 24 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I created and edited this page but published without any references, now they are in the text including the ones you mentioned about sponsors and partners. Other teams outside of eSports usually have sponsors linked on their pages, such as soccer teams. Also I think it would be interesting to see that there are other teams of equal relevance to eSports with active pages like Team Liquid, SK Telecom T1, Royal Never Give Up, Fnatic among others. I intend to continue working and evolve this page. Thank you. Nidaloove (talk) 11:43, 24 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
