Marcin “Jankos” Jankowski, the star jungler for G2, claimed that he has been given permission to investigate his alternatives for the upcoming season 2023, so he travelled to South Korea to improve his chances of finding a competitive club. Jankos has been openly addressing his career prospects with his audience while streaming solo queue in Korea. Jankos recently announced that, for the first time in five years, he might possibly be without a team.
Only a couple of days ago, Jankos shared with his loyal Twitch followers that up to five European teams pulled out of contract negotiations due to the incredibly high buyout price. So, he had only one or two organizations left up his sleeves.
As the days went by, Jankos’ options went from being extremely narrowed down to nonexistent as he discussed on his stream that he’ll most probably be teamless in 2023. “It seems like my buyout was too high, so I think there’s a high chance I won’t be able to find a team for the next year. I think it’s too late, honestly. I think there’s still some hope, but the hope’s rather slim and it depends on the teams breaking verbal agreements with players,” Jankos said.
So, with no team planning to pick up Jankos soon, he could join a non-LEC team. Jankos will most likely resort to streaming and hoping that the current team rosters fail or break apart to make room for him.
“Because teams won’t be able to buy me out and pay my salary, then now I will be now most likely stuck… The only way is that I could join a non-LEC team,” Jankos said.
