Moonton putting a ban on Wild Rift teams??

If an organization chooses to enter into an exclusivity agreement with Moonton, they will be required to disband their Wild Rift Roster, limiting them to only being able to compete in Mobile Legends.

Twitter user @WRCompetitive stated in a tweet that

Following the signing of an exclusivity contract with Moonton, several Esports organizations, including @bigetronesports, may be required to release their Wild Rift rosters in order to compete only in the @MobileLegendsOL. As a result, they may be denied the right to field a #WildRift team.
