9+6 AHHHHHH 15 player oh noes!

What's wrong with having a bigger team?
Together they will get better... Some may leave (maybe not).

It should help all of them improve and I am sure as an organization they will benefit from each other.

Love how negative some people can be about decisions that don't affect them.

They have had 4-5 players at every MLG this season...


Who else was at the last MLG besides shadow and jimmy?

Mmm... neither were phenomenal individually, but hopefully they can synergize and produce something else. Right now there's room for another top American team

I have to admit that I don't know anything about these teams either, despite the fact that I read these forums like its my damn job. Good to see positive things happening for NA teams though! Actually I have heard of Thisisjimmy from MLG open bracket. Good luck to you guys

After thought: I probably just don't follow team leagues and smaller tournaments enough. It can be hard to break through at a tournament like MLG, especially now that they draw Korean players.

Edit: What other tournaments do these players participate in?

I was the original check-six SC2 member!

Fun fact... I've been with them since August of 2010! I was the only member until we picked up rSGaming around the start of 2011

ESEA is our main team league; you should check into it as we are currently #1 and in Grand Finals with teams like EG, Complexity, VVV, etc.

In no way does this effect them, there is still the VP clan/community and they are going strong

There are good players on both teams, but I doubt xsix can support all the players that are in roster. Are they going to send like ~10 ppl to every mlg now? XD

We never sent every single player to every single event, and we won't be doing it now. We know the roster is big, but we would not have done this if we did not know for sure that we can keep both the community and our players happy and keep our organization sound throughout.

Like I put on the community forums about this, I wish the former VP/new xSix guys all the best now that they are apart of a solid team like xSix.

At the same time, VP, as a community, will not fall down just because the pro team is moving on. VP still has a solid elite team that had been getting better and better and it will be great to see them as the sole focus of the VP community. I wish all the best for the former VP guys, but for those that are apart of the VP community, the community and the Elite team, will continue on and represent VP proudly.
