Wow, do the major (Korean) teams not realise how damn good SaSe is? He's tearing up the KR ladder, and he's beat some pretty good players recently in tournament situations. I was 100% sure he was joining either a Korean team or TL/FXO/CoL who have practice houses in Korea.

Huge congrats to Quantic though, great catch! This will certainly help them become a more established team.

I think this is good for SaSe. He deserves a salary and to be sent around the world. Gl to SaSe and a nice pickup for Quantic.

Not sure if posted in this thread. From Sase's fanclub thread:

Hi guys!

First of all I want to say thank you for all your posts, I didn't post here before but I have actually read every single comment and it makes me so happy^^; I will try to reply more often from now on!

Second I would like to point out I haven't been in a team for 2½ months. I have though been approached by more than 10 serious teams and believe me, I have turned down alot of good offers because there was somethings that was just not right. I talked alot to Quantic before I signed and made sure everything was what I wanted. I am very picky with what I want and if I can't have it I don't see any reason signing, and no, salary is not the most important thing. I signed Thursday and in five days I am going to MLG Orlando, wouldn't have happen without a team and would probably not have happen in the other teams I talked to. So just wait a bit and see what happens, I am sure you all will be pleased!

Once again thank you all so very very much and see you in Orlando ^.^

//SaSe

Good luck with the SC2 division.


Thank you

As someone who works to improve Quantic's PR and marketing, I take full and personal responsibility for the current state of the website. Rest assured that we identified the website (and more widely, our image as a whole) as a weak point quite some time ago, and we're well on our way to replacing it with something much more fitting and representative of what Quantic truly is all about.


Can you tell us a little more about Quantic then, and what they can do for Sase? Is it an American team? Are you getting a teamhouse? Is there a manager, or some sort of support system for Sase? Does he have a guaranteed contract where you pay him even if your team fails with your SC2 investment?

What are the short term and long term goals for Quantic in SC2? Who are your sponsors and, and are you sending more sc2 players to Korea this year?

seriously, whenever I look at SaSe, I can't help but think that he looks ridiculously alike to assange, even though they do not look that much alike if you put their images next to each other... somehow this is really vexing me...

It must be a good offer. I'd imagine that most of the top foreign teams have at least considered signing SaSe since he's been teamless.

Good for him, he deserves a good contract and getting one of the hardest working foreigners in the world should pay off for Quantic too. I'm also happy that we'll see him at Orlando too.

Good pickup for quantic for sure. Just kinda don't see how it would make sense given for sase as I'm not sure how much quantic can do for him in korea.

Wow, that's certainly a lot of questions!

Quantic Gaming is a largely American-based, multi-game team, with a small presence in Australia and Korea - the Korean presence being reinforced by SaSe joining the team. We've been around for some time now, and our Black Ops team, Quantic LeveragE, is one of the best Call of Duty teams in the world with two MLG victories this year. In terms of StarCraft 2 specifically, we have also been around for quite some time and our players have attended almost every MLG event this year. As you may know, iNkA has recently been invited to play in NASL Season 2, where he has posted some pretty impressive results so far.

Quantic also runs "Quantic Media", a gaming media production group with a strong YouTube presence.

The manager for our SC2 team is Ben "fograw" Shaver (the Ben SaSe refers to in his statement). His assistant manager is Bryan "YutZ" Guzman. Both have been part of the SC2 scene ever since it began, with Fograw being active since Beta and YutZ travelling to Korea for the first GSL Open Season.

I cannot comment on team or practice houses at this stage. SaSe will continue to reside in Korea, but will travel to as many foreign events as we can send him to. SaSe has explicitly stated - both publicly and to us - that he wants to remain in Korea to ensure that he gets the best possible practice. His intentions are admirable, and we see no reason to interfere with his personal goal to be the best.

I obviously cannot delve into any contractual details on a public forum I know that you're might be concerned about our longevity, but our business model is one that aims to achieve total sustainability.

This may sound cheesy, but at Quantic we believe that every player has a story. We plan on getting highly engaged with the community - in ways that have never been done so before - while at the same time, we strive to remain professional and driven in our approach. You might not know much about our current roster now, but that's something we'd love to change very soon.

Hopefully that clarifies a lot for you
