This is not a thread to argue about destiny, or to argue about racism, witch hunts or anything other than the fact that root is getting back together. You do so at your own peril.

Congratulations & welcome back! Always appreciated ROOT and I hope they do well.
Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded than encouraging people who have not. 파이팅! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ"

I remember watching ROOTCatZ ages ago. It was actually the first SC2 stream I ever watched. This announcements brings back old times. I would love to see the team reestablish itself in the modern scene and I belive it can. ROOT fighting!

yeah, Kiwi and Slush are both extremely solid players imo. and as far as NA teams go, they are usually either mediocre or half Korean, so I'd much rather support a team with personable and interesting players :-)

coL drops its worst players. Root then forms because no one else wants them.

I don't think they were "dropped", but rather were offered a contract that they did not want to accept. Regardless, I would assume ROOT has plans on making the team successful with the remake. You have to remember when ROOT was a top NA team back when it was created, sponsors were extremely hard to secure. Things have changed.

Either way, best of luck CatZ & ROOT Gaming

I do not intend to shit on the optimism here, but can someone tell me what was so great about this team? The players seems to be really mediocre at best.

Congrats! A little sad not to see ROOTqxc but I loved you guys when you were around and fully support the return! Super props to col for seeming to be very helpful and accepting of this from what I can tell based on what you're saying.

they were the original talent factory, they didn't care about signing the best of the best.
qxc went on to be the only foreigner to all kill in GSTL history
sheth went on to prove hes a code A class (if not higher) player
think of the most memorable pvx games, I bet they had kiwikaki in it. who knew the mothership was so good before everyone else? that guy
slush became one of the most solid players at MLG never failing to reach championship sunday (that I know of, if that's wrong fine)
destiny went on to become one of the most talked about pros on the scene


no theyre not really mediocre at best

EDIT: also to add to wanting rootqxc back, its likely his contract just wasn't up with col yet and he may or may not rejoin root when his contract DOES finish
