But for Samsung, it's 300k-500k to reach millions of people, the vast majority of whom fit within a targeted demographic (generally speaking, 15-30 range, mostly male), who also often times have disposable income. Very, very difficult to not have positive ROI on this purchase. I wouldn't be surprised if MVP ends up selling everything and disappearing though. MVP owner's could potentially walk away with high 6 figures if they sell off everything. Without the championship quality LoL team, brand recognition gets a lot harder, as well as finding sponsors. | ||

I could see them dropping sponsorship for KHAN or just merging the two squads into 1 team and probably get rid of some of the players( if the 2 teams merged rosters they would have a huge number of players) It probably makes more sense to put the MVP SC2 players on KHAN as it's a more "established" brand you could say | ||

What if the MVP coaches believe so much in their future, their teams, and their fan loyalty that they will stare Samsung's check books in the face, say that they're too prideful to sell, and turn down the $500,000? | ||

In a world not governed by money this could happen. In our world, it won't. | ||

Well they must somewhat be willing to sell it for the right price or else negotiations probably wouldn't have reached this stage, no? | ||
