I had never heard about the company and now I know it and their product.
I still have no idea what's hot6's(?) product.

But yea sponsors are sponsors and someone sponsoring GSL can't be a bad thing.

looks like a western commercial any kind of perfume that we get over here. A bit longer sure but otherwise just as artsy fartsy. I dont see the problem here.

edit: except for the "I hate you" ofc, that was out of the blue and sort of funny :D

The best adds are useally the provoking ones, the ones that are really annoying is also good, because if you just heard a very stupid commercial, you might talk about it with you friends/family, therefor making more people aware.

I keep wondering if Gom could get some Western sponsors for our channel. I don't think Hot6, or Monsieur J are available anywhere near me, so even if I was interested, I'd be out of luck. Although, I also think that particular Monsieur commercial is a bit of a miss in the first place in terms of target audience.

You basically have a large audience of online gamers interested in eSports. I imagine those spots could be more fruitfully filled by gamer related products. Games, Peripherals, components, computers, monitors, or at least other tech stuff, be it phones, music players, tvs, etc.

(Obviously long-term eSports has to be capable of selling other products, but I think we're closer as a community to energy drinks and RAM. Not a whole lot of us up at 2-5AM thinking 'yeah, I hate you... my reflection? I'll buy some Korean cologne if I'm ever in a country it is sold in?')

Who cares what the sponsors are? If they're giving money to promote eSports organizations and it helps grow the scene I can't really think of too many sponsors that would be bad for the scene. It's especially cool to see some of these less eSports related sponsors starting to pop up (i.e. not computer peripherals and energy drinks). Those are all good and fine but if we really want this to be as big as it can we have to get companies outside of that interested in supporting it. I mean how many car companies sponsor football events? The more expansive the types of sponsors the better imho.

I'm honestly confused by a Male (??) Cosmetics company advertising and supporting eSports. This isn't exactly their demographic... while the majority of eSports fans are male I don't think they'll be swayed into cosmetics..

But "You are the Golf King" was supposedly a baller online golf game (dunno never played, had friends who did) it was Hot Shots Golf Online.

Hot6 is an energy drink, much like Red Bull, Monster, etc. However, there was a Korean report saying that it is super unhealthy and terrible for you. Its supposed to be even worse than Red Bull because of how much caffeine and other shit is in it.
