I've only ever seen Monster in the UK in the last two months or so. I just assumed they didn't sell it here. I have tried it, cos I had never seen it or drunk it before. It was surprisingly tasty. I know an energy drink is not healthy but it makes an interesting mixer. So I have had about 8 cans (it was 2 for 2 quid) in my life.
I don't see a problem with them sponsoring a team. Football and other sports have tons of sponsors. It's no big deal and helps give money into Sports and now Esports. Advertising happens. No point stressing over it.

XD Anyways the finals are going to be really good and i'm betting on MC you misconstrue hype for achievements.. mc was all hype in the first 2 open seasons...he is now nothing but skill taeja is on a tear, so everyone is on the 'hype' train. MCdayC said it pretty much exactly how it is. Allright maybe it's just my way to understand hype that's flawed, I quit this e-argument while I still can Go MC anyways

|
Go go ForGG ! Another come back !

Ah, was hoping that one would have gone better.

I assume it's just a cultural difference. In Europe such aggressive form of product placement isn't common. If anything at all, that does more harm for the company than it helps (in my opinion).
