League of Legends
Sources close to BLIX.GG confirm that Exeed, an Italian esports organization currently competing in the Circuito Tormenta Italy 2022 (an amateur League of Legends circuit) has closed a deal with Polish organization Gentlemen’s Gaming, acquiring their Ultraliga spot for 2023. With this, Exeed would be the second esports club to skip Italian PG Nationals to compete in an accredited ERL after Goskilla, also in Ultraliga.

Exeed is an Italian esports team created in 2018 and based in Milan. Currently, they are competing in Rocket League, Call of Duty, Fortnite and FIFA, with the latter esports being where Exeed found the most success. They also have struck deals and partnerships with Italian traditional sports clubs such as Cagliari and FC Torino.
Gentlemen’s Gaming would then end their experience in Ultraliga after five seasons, joining the league back in Summer 2020. In these 5 seasons, GG has only managed to make it to the playoffs twice, in their first and last splits, both ending in 4th place.
This won’t probably be the last team to join Ultraliga for 2023, as some teams, mainly Forsaken and Komil&Friends, are expected to sell their spot, only remaining within the league in case there are no good enough offers.
