There is the NaDa team that is coming. With some thought maybe the founded LoL teams will venture into sc2, they have some sponsors, but only time will tell.

It's a lot healthier for the scene to have a smaller number of really well sponsored teams like we have now than a larger number of mostly broke as shit teams like we had a year ago.
Right now Mvp, Slayers, FXO, IM, Fnatic, Prime and Startale all appear to be in a really good spot financially. While TSL and NSHS seem to be keeping afloat if nothing else.
This time last year the only teams with any money at all were FXO and Slayers so this is a vast improvement.
Plus when they all move over to playing pro league I expect more sponsors to come in and teams in general to become more stable. It's inevitable that mergers will happen when the Kespa teams come in because 17 teams is too many. 10 is a nice number to have imo.

TSL isn't just keeping afloat. They have always been in a good spot financially. They are one of the few teams that sends their players overseas without a foreign partnership.

They send Polt out a lot yes. But how do you know Polt isn't paying his own way (he's a rich guy post Super Tournament). Almost all the times their other players have gone to tournaments it's been on the tournaments dollar.
