Why would Liquid even want to buy TT though.

Ready... go!

the challenge is for liquid to actually grab a team worth sponsoring next TI instead of waiting around and watching them all get snapped up because they can't be assed.

Like can you imagine if CLG didn't have a league team for a year, or if there was just no liquid starcraft for a year when that game mattered

Who all got snapped up? Navi NA was still under contract (and fucking awful), Fire (SNA) was not going to sign with Liquid, Secret is absurdly expensive, and the only player(s) worth building a team around took the GGA money and bailed.

I mean, you do realize that there are a number of teams that were looking to get into Dota 2? You think Fnatic wants to be without a team? You think Complexity is happy with theirs? Mouz, Quantic, the list goes on for orgs that would love to pick up a Dota 2 team.

Just having a brand name out there doesn't do anything for an organization though. The team actually has to add something for it to be worth it. The fact is that nobody that is available right now qualifies for that. With the exception of Secret who cost almost as much as they would manage to bring back (which is why no org has picked them up).

they could have had TT probably

TT was bought out from Liquid.....

and that implies liquid couldn't afford them?

Do you understand how buyouts work at all? If you have people that don't want to play under you anymore, and another team is willing to give you money for them, usually you take the money.

i'm talking about post ti4, there was a lot of hype around it and disappointment that they left liquid. Anyways I was just using TT as an example of a team they could have had if they wanted to since it was asked what 5 players they could have picked up. Like PA said, it probably wouldn't have been profitable to outbid GGA.

Yes I am alive, the guy doesn't know where I love so he just has to hope to run into me again.

i dont think singsing is that bad of a guy or a player but the hype he gets makes me want to critique his play/personality a lot harsher than i usually do
