"sold the brand"? They went bankrupt after pulling a fail so bad it killed WC3 outside of China.

So what does MYM get out of this?

Their one player gets to go to Korea and they get to pretend like MVP's players' are theirs?


I assume they sell the concept to naive sponsors that they are winning the titles, etc. Sort of like SK did with MC.


yup, a name like "DongRaeGu" or "Genius" is the only thing that matters.

wonder what MVPs manager actually thinks about it....

maybe he thinks about all the players and not only the stars. Stars get their money anyways, but the "lesser" players are also very important. The rent for the teamhouse needs to be paid, food has to be bought, players need plane tickets and hotel rooms when attending foreign tourneys. You need money for everything and money comes from sponsors. Take a look at the MYM website and realise that for example "Razer" will now be seen on a player like DRG. This certainly is much of a bigger deal, than seeing it on Xlord (looking through the international eye).

Why would MVP leave a far more successful and established team for an organization that is known for failure?

Edit: This actually breaks my brain.

As I didn't follow WC3, I would like a detailed explanation about what happened to close the gap in my e-Sports knowlegde.

they inflated player salaries a TON (paid grubby and moon ridiculous amounts of money) which caused organizations to be unsustainable (when trying to compete salary wise) and crashed hard.

there were other factors such as the game naturally progressing towards a slow death and imbalance in competitive play but this didnt help.

I didn't even know MYM was still around. I thought after dropping their Dota squad they had nothing left

In short words mYm basically had HUGE salarys so they could have an monopoly on the best players. This caused all other teams to raise their salarys as well so they could keep their star players. This basically killed the wc3 scene. Eventually mYm got the point were they no longer could pay salaries/fly people to events/etc. etc. and this resulted in players started leaving and so on. Shortly after the organisation filed for bankrupcy. Some time after this some german people bought the rights for trademark "mYm" and started the new "mYm", which has been pretty much of a fiasco so far. Every team they've had on hasn¨t been able to last for more than 3 months. T_T

Money talks. No other reason for MVP to make this move otherwise.

Because this mYm is a joke and is a thousand times worse deal than they had with coL.

I don't think it's a bad move for MVP because this deal will probably make it possible for MVP players to get trips to international tournaments paid by MYM and it's a good move for MYM because they get represented by some of the best players in Sc2. However it's sad that MYM is not really taking a lot of interest in shaping a roster of their own besides having Xlord on the team who should be considered a major prospect when he is going full time.
I want to be with those who share secret things or else alone.

MVP only needs MYM to pay for their foreign flights. Genius and Monster are at dreamhack when they normally wouldn't be, especially monster. Therefore, this partnership is already good for MVP.
