How you can go from practicing with TSL and aspiring for actual professional teams to joining a "top NA team" thats basically a bunch of streamers that act funny is kind of a questionable decision. I guess its good if there weren't options but I don't see how this will benefit him as a player or help his skills. Its a shame, because Major is widely considered to have the best mechanical skill and best potential of any Foreign Terran. His past finally caught up with him I think. Seemed like he couldn't find a team after the TSL accident and this with ROOT can be a good way of showing everyone that he has matured alot from his stay in Korea and in the future a more heavy hitting team may don't feel like it is a risk to actually sign him. | ||

He'll have to actually stick to a team for a year or so for that to happen. | ||

Major will eventually want to join a team that can offer him more, in which case he will leave, further hurting his reputation and future career choices. Root will just plain be pissed. Good luck to the parties involved. Hope it turns out better than I expect. | ||

Obviously you guys aren't a team with a full management staff behind it etc, but are you able to send players to events and stuff like that or not? | ||

Obviously you guys aren't a team with a full management staff behind it etc, but are you able to send players to events and stuff like that or not? the way I understand it is their sponsorship with twitch makes it so they can send their players to tournaments, but they cannot afford to give the players a salary at the moment. I could be completely wrong though... | ||
