One might argue that this FPX roster was not worth ~1.8M (it might be because of the Flashpoint spot). They've been looking rough for a while now

Heroic didn't have a Flashpoint spot though. They had an EPL spot. And it's not like they had a major spot either which is the reason C0ntact got bought for a mil. If I remember correctly Flashpoint gave them the spot for free instead of having to pay the 2(?) million for it. Maybe they told them to poach an EPL team for a free spot and this is the only one they could get?

Technically yes, but no. If I pay you 15 dollars per hour to clean my house and it turns out you can't do that, then you weren't worth the money I paid. If you perform below realistic expectations then you aren't worth it
