Apex Legends Global Series mismanagement situation explored

The Apex Legends Global Series is a competitive showdown of the best players across platforms like PlayStation, Xbox, and PC to redeem the hefty million dollar cash prize. This event is primarily responsible for highlighting top-tier teams and aspiring ones who want to go big.

Before the LAN event was finally headed towards taking a severe turn, all the planning for it slowly crumbled down as a few pieces of information came into public disclosure. According to sources, Electronic Arts is being criticized for hosting an event they weren’t prepared for.

As it is known, the ALGS 2022 will see the participation of 40 teams from around the globe who are equally skilled in every way. However, EA is having trouble bringing half of these teams to Sweden to compete for the world champion title.

Furthermore, half of the participating teams are receiving funding is just for three players only and does not include their coaches. Organizations that are financially challenged are having a tough time reaching the Swedish shores.

It is even more interesting that the company raises a million dollars each day via skin sales. Only a tiny part of it would be enough to have every team on board for the Apex Legends tournament.

But for now, the only thing that everyone can observe in front of their eyes is that the Apex Legends Global Series management has been ineffective, and fans are looking for a proper reason behind the turn of events.
