But a company won't sponsor a single player, if they could sponsor a whole team of strong players unless the single one is really exceptional. But viOlet isn't quite there yet!

He will definately have to join a team and it won't be a korean one, since he seems to have high monetary expectations.

Oooh more excitement and (possibly) drama!

Seriously though, I think he's been growing a lot under the Empire banner. I guess this is the common view among foreigners who didn't follow him before. For me it doesn't matter if he joins a new team or goes solo, as long as he gets the sponsorship he needs to keep killing nerds at tournaments while wearing a mouth mask.

why wouldnt a company sponsor a single player? to be honest, it makes more sense in a game like sc2, where its 1v1. have practice partners sure but you're on your own in tournaments.

I am mostly intrigued by the fact that every single sc2 player in the world may or may not have a personal manager without me knowing about it.

It should be usually the better deal to sponsor a team, since you get way more exposure for your money, expecially since teamleagues play a more important role lately!

Grubby is pretty exceptional in his ability to market himself. Violet's a cool guy and he can speak decent English, but compare him to Grubby's PR it's not even close.

On-topic:
Sad to see Violet leave Empire, I actually hope he re-signs .

I wouldn't be surprised if he did join complexity. They don't seem to have a problem picking up koreans, nada is no longer with them so they might wanna fill that void, plus they just built a sweet house in Texas - seems perfect! haha
The multiplying villanies of man do swarm upon him.

I hope he re-signs with empire, as tbh, I think empire is what took him from that guy who was owning the playhem dailies into a code S player.

And I am not sure how much interaction he had with the team, but any interaction with the Imperial Terrans would have only been positive on him.

Edit: Lol... fail spelling :D
