In this episode we look into a topic that we have discussed briefly in previous episodes: the state of the team environment where players are seemingly bouncing between teams on a regular basis. Is this a product of the community in general, the players themselves, or the organizations employing them? We talk at length about the effects of player shifts and roster changes, the implications of such behavior, and how e-sports can make a change for the better. Tune in to find out what we think about the state of professional teams in some of our favorite games.

In this episode we are taking a look at the so-called "Gentleman's Agreement" that has been making waves among the Call of Duty professional scene in the past weeks. We go in depth regarding the validity of such an agreement, the problems with having such a system, and how the current scene has been affected by it. Our opinions are on full display in this episode, with many objections to the current state of the agreement. Tune in and let us know what you think about the "Gentleman's Agreement."
