LCS hand Echo Fox ultimatum following investigation into alleged racism LoLesportsThe others in the Echo Fox organization. Raizada is a founding partner at the Vision Venture Partners group that invested in Echo Fox following a $38 million raise of capital under the name Vision Esports. After the alleged racist abuse from Raizada, Fox said he would be willing to stay on Echo Fox if they severed ties with the shareholder, and the LCS are now pushing for a similar outcome. LCS could punish Echo Fox On Wednesday, May 15 LCS Commissioner Chris Greeley put out a statement concerning Echo Fox and the results of the LCS\u2019s investigation into the accusations first made by Fox regarding Raizada. \u201cHate speech, threats, and bigotry have no place in the LCS,\u201d they said on Twitter. \u201cWe have directed Echo Fox to take appropriate corrective action within 60 days.\u201d Greeley went on to say that if Echo Fox didn\u2019t take appropriate action by \u201cremoving any individuals whose actions violate League rules and agreements within the required time period\u201d then the team\u2019s future in the LCS could be in trouble. Echo Fox has been asked to cut all ties with Raizada twice now, first by Fox and now the LCS itself. If Echo Fox does not take action by removing any individuals whose actions violate League rules and agreements within the required time period, the League will take formal action that may adversely impact the future of Echo Fox in the LCS. -Chris Greeley, LCS Commissioner (2\/2) \u2014 lolesports (@lolesports) May 15, 2019 Since Dexerto\u2019s initial report on Fox\u2019s intentions to leave Echo Fox following Raizada\u2019s racist comments, emails show that the shareholder also appeared to threaten the former NBA player\u2019s family. The LCS has given Echo Fox 60 days to cut ties with Raizada, even if they didn\u2019t mention him by name, so now we\u2019ll have to wait and see how the organization responds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
