Sponsors are looking for teams that have players that are willing to put themselves out there in the community and get exposure and do interviews and make videos and promote their product. We couldn't even get KiWiKaKi or Slush to post on the root-gaming.com website ffs, they only treated SC2 as a game, and that is 100% fine with me, they are amazing players and friends but they don't give a shit about the business side. The ROOT members that went to complexity are willing to work hard to make Starcraft work on a business level and complexity is a huge organization that has had many years of experience supporting the top players in the world and marketing them and helping them in every way. Just think about IdrA, before he joined EG he wasn't making any money, but EG showed IdrA how to treat the game as a business, and make training videos and cast and coach and stream and do tons of interviews and get himself out there. Complexity can give us this amazing support, so that we can play Starcraft full time, which in the end is best for the fans and viewers because it will produce better quality players and games. So I for one, am really happy to be joining complexity, as sad as I am that Slush and Kiwi will not be joining us, I do think that it is for the best, and I can promise that from now on I will step up my game, as I have more time to dedicate to practicing now, and I am a lot more motivated since I don't have to deal with running a team anymore. It would be nice if everyone stopped bashing on me / catz / minigun / ddoro / destiny, and treating slush / kiwi like superstars LOL I know slush did really amazing at the last MLG but I did beat him in the group stages and in a tournament finals not too long ago and at MLG dallas 2010 finals so I am not sure why everyone thinks he is levels above everyone else in ROOT. I know that KiWiKaKi has always been our all-star player, but any team he joins will be sadly disappointed because he is asking for a LOT of money, and he is not even willing to post on the forums. Anyways, I loved ROOT but it is time to move on, we are still the same people that you know and love, only now we have the support of a huge team to publicize / promote / send us to events which will only make us better players .
well atleast u had the balls to admit it was all about the money, unlike CatZ who lied, and we all knew.
in my opinion, you did sell your friends and team down the river.
only one i feel bad for is minigun, he had true potential that just went to waste in root and now in coL. he should have looked elsewhere.
o well, noobs will be noobs.

So funny,
So many people just don't get it.
And just come with the you are selling out blah blah.
Think about these two choices.
#1 You had a good run of it but were not able to get major sponsors to be able to support yourselves ( Pay rent, buy food, pay for travel to tournaments every month etc... ). In addition you spent a great deal of your time taking care of the details of running a team, and trying to get sponsors so your gameplayed suffered and you didn't reach your max potential.
It just didn't work out so you shut the doors and all go your separate ways.
#2 You had a good run of it but were not able to get major sponsors to be able to support yourselves ( Pay rent, buy food, pay for travel to tournaments every month etc... ). In addition you spent a great deal of your time taking care of the details of running a team and trying to get sponsors, so your gameplayed suffered and you didn't reach your max potential.
It just didn't work out so you talk with a solid well established team who can provide the support needed so the team members can focus soley on being top players. You are able to keep most of the team together in this new place.
This well established team has a contract which requires the players to participate in promoting the team and the sport with appearances, streaming, posting on forums etc.. Unfortunatley two of the teams players did not want to be obligated to do that so they went their separate ways.
So what sounds like the better path ?
For further reference on selling out I would direct you to listen to the tool song "Hooker with a P***s" and ask yourself are you the OGT kid in that song? ( I would put a link but think that is a no-no)

No, I doubt I gonna change it. I am still a rootfan, even though there is no ROOT anymore. Even though I will continue to be a fan of the players and their new team(s) I will forever be a rootfan

Is this some kind of joke? So many absolutely ignorant posts in this thread it's ridiculous.
Of course it's sad that ROOT split up as they were such a fun team full of friends who tried to build up a team from scratch and go big, but it unfortunately didn't work out at a business level, so the right decision was definitely made to switch to coL where they can now just focus on becoming better players.
Good luck to all the Ex-Root players including Kiwi and Slush!

Badmouthing old members isn't good for anyone. You are all grown ups and play SC2 on a professional level and a speach like yours, Drewbie, is something you could expect from 14yo Stan badmouthing his teammates in 3v3.
If you want to project the image of professionalism, this is not the way to go. Especially not on TL public forum.
I'm glad though that you worked something out with Complexity, I'm looking forward seeing you guys in upcomming tournaments. I don't understand why people think drewbie was bad mouthing slush and kiwi in his post. If you actually read what he says he's not bad mouthing them at all. Simply shedding some light on the situation and everyone's motivations behind moving to coL or leaving the clan at that point.
He tried to say it in a good way by stating he`s perfectly ok with everything Kiwi did.
Between the lines he was still complaining that Kiwi/Slush are seen as star players and Kiwi didn't do enough for the team, wants too much money, etc. Not really bad mouthing but this stuff shouldn't be talked in public.

The problem is that KiWi already has money from poker and he doesn't need to treat the game as a business, he doesn't need to spend his time getting his name out there and marketing himself or streaming or anything
LOL somehow remember when i was not working and i was eating my roomate food
WHY , WHy does he had food he wasnt working either oh thats so unfair

How is this at all relevant? Sounds like some envy over Slush's recent stardom.

The funny thing is that now Kiwi and slush can join REAL teams..

Because money is bad amirite? And the government is only trying to get you?
Please realise that at the end of the day, even great people like CatZ and Drewbie have to eat and drink, and as sad as it is that costs money.

It would be nice if everyone stopped bashing on me / catz / minigun / ddoro / destiny, and treating slush / kiwi like superstars LOL I know slush did really amazing at the last MLG but I did beat him in the group stages and in a tournament finals not too long ago and at MLG dallas 2010 finals so I am not sure why everyone thinks he is levels above everyone else in ROOT. I know that KiWiKaKi has always been our all-star player, but any team he joins will be sadly disappointed because he is asking for a LOT of money, and he is not even willing to post on the forums. Anyways, I loved ROOT but it is time to move on, we are still the same people that you know and love, only now we have the support of a huge team to publicize / promote / send us to events which will only make us better players . well atleast u had the balls to admit it was all about the money, unlike CatZ who lied, and we all knew. in my opinion, you did sell your friends and team down the river. only one i feel bad for is minigun, he had true potential that just went to waste in root and now in coL. he should have looked elsewhere. o well, noobs will be noobs.
dat obvious troll. Ban plz.

I dont care much about this really except that I am interest in where KiWi ends up. Slush might be somewhat interesting aswell, but I personally think CatZ and Drewbie are horribly overrated. I dont mean to bash, but there might be a reason that KiWi can ask for more money.
As for Destiny, as long as he makes money to support his kid and gets better Im happy =)

The funny thing is that now Kiwi and slush can join REAL teams..
Have you even bothered to read drewbies posts? I kindly ask you to please do before you continue posting in this thread. Then maybe you'll realize one of the reasons KiWiKaki (and Slush) were so happy in ROOT was the lack of obligations. So maybe, they don't even desire a so-called "real" team.
Absolutely no disrespect to any of Slush, KiWiKaKi or Fayth. I love them all, just pointing out what should be pretty obvious to anyone who actually read drewbies posts. KiWiKaKi does not wish to be bound by strict contracts, he just wanna play the game. Which among other reasons, made ROOT the perfect team for him. Please think it through before you pretty much say ROOT was holding KiWiKaKi and Slush back.
