Scarlett joins Eclypsia - Page 8

Complaints about moderation and freedom of speech are for the website feedback forums. They will be treated as being off topic and dealt with appropriately. No more Iron Lady talk, no more gender debate. This is a thread about a StarCraft player. Last I checked what's in between your legs has no impact on how you play the game. I agree with some of the comments here that the moderation on this thread has been dreadful. It's way too soft. I have gone ahead and simply deleted a bunch of comments that fail TL's community standards. Yes, those standards are determined by the mods. Yes, those standards are not perfect nor even uniformly applied. But we try our best. Spare us your righteous indignation over any notional impairment of free speech. This is a private site. It's a club. There is no "right" to free speech here. We only tolerate quality speech. By who's standards? Ours. Go read the TL Ten Commandments. And if you don't like this policy or our way of running our house, leave. - mensrea | ||

If we follow his "logic", Demuslim beats Nestea in a best of 3 => Demuslim is better than IM team => Scarlett is better than IM and EG combined, man, what a pick up. | ||

From the sounds of it she was in talks with several teams and Eclypsia is the one she chose so I would think she likes the deal she's getting. At this point she is very much a prospect, a single good tournament performance (amazing actually) doesn't necessarily mean a good future player. I was referring to the publicity effect, which weights easily as much as performance in the marketing industry that esport is heading too. She has quite a unique background and is a hottopic right know, while Eclypsia's decisions so far have not made them one of the big names in the game. If scarlett had joined quantic or eg, the team and the player would have gained in publicity, as an EG in front of your name is more worth atm than an EC. However, she now has officialy raised the marketworth of the EC tag. | ||

There's a number of players who've done well in a single or a string of tournaments and who are never heard from again. So I can understand why better teams may be leery of signing such a relative new comer. If she continues to have the same level of success over the next year or two, I think we will certainly see higher skill team pick her up. As for now, she gets to practice round the clock, show off her skills, and Eclypsia gets some publicity. Sounds like a win-win to me. | ||

That said, it's going to take a lot more than this for Eclypsia to improve my opinion of them after that moronic PR stunt. | ||

I hope this means she'll be attending more events. It'd be interesting to see her compete at an MLG. | ||
