Then we have for example FXO, which is just a way for a rich guy to waste his money for entertainment (not a real business model), and a lot of poorer teams that aren't really paying meaningful salaries. I fear for the scene. :\ When I think of established teams I think of EG, coL and Fnatic. These are teams that have survived for years and across multiple games. Why? Because they run good businesses, EG and coL especially. | ||

To be honest, it's probably the only korean team who really care and for the financial side. What happend with team Reign is lack of exposure, they had a very little fanbase and never produced any event or something along those lines to bring audience to their sponsors. | ||

T_T some serious talent on this team. Don't think that the players will have trouble finding homes but this is so saddening. How come it was so sudden? How do you sign a player and then disband so soon? | ||

However, there are many people on the market. Complexity just announced picking up three new players... probably slush Kiwi and artist? I hope Liquid can get one of those three though  | ||

How in damn hell do you know they did that? Such an unfounded accusation with absolutely no facts to support it. | ||

I can't speak to the FXO comment, but somehow I doubt that's true. But, what I can speak to, is the bolded part. How can you even say that? OGS has been going out and picking up sponsors left and right, so has IM. Steelseries, Mom's touch, Burn energy drink. PRIME team has a freakin' clothing store, man! And you're going to sit there and tell us they don't care about money? And the ultimate caveat to your statement, the ZENEX post ( whether its true or not I don't know) where a team came to an INTERNET MESSAGE BOARD asking STRANGERS for money. Everyone cares about money. Everyone. | ||
