Does this mean SaSe is still staying at the GOM house for his SC2 career?

SaSe didn't go in a KR team to be able to do all MLGs

I totally echoed this one. Why doens't SaSe join a Korean team instead? He's really good and got lots of potential.
Made me kind of sad to be honest. He really would've benefited from Korean training. Get him into NSHoSeo or something to learn from sage imo.

Ah well.. Atleast he'll be attending foreigner tournaments, so that's sweet I guess. Still would've been awesome to see him max out his potential and play in the GSL.



This was the weirdest thing I've read all day O_O Is that actually true? Do you have a quote or something?

I'm pretty sure QxG will get a partnership coL style, the CEO mentioned looking into one during an interview with ESFI.

Sase to Orlando = almost guaranteed non-korean top 6.

Seriously. This guy is BEAST.

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
