Randomly capitalized letters, in order of appearance, in the paragraphs they appear in:

I'm tired.

Oh and grats ToD.

None of these players are probably salaried.. Root is broke -_-


To be fair most of the player stream a ton and being on Root just gives people more reason to watch.

Man, new and improved ROOT v2.0 is looking really fucking strong since their last two or so pickups, and now ToD? Damn, idk where the hell they are getting these funds, but this is good for ROOT nonetheless. GL ToD and ROOT!

How are root able to afford these players? I understand they have some sponsors but a player like tod can't be cheap I'm just curious what root offered to tod.

They're relocating to Catz' house in Lima with a 2nd "training" house in Le Paz coming soon. When the players aren't practicing they'll be growing, exporting and distributing Cocaine through the guise of a team of successful progamers.

(Z)CatZ and (T)Drewbie are the masterminds, and are using Catz connections and knowledge of the local area to get started.

(P)Fayth and (P)KiWiKaKi are the main investors, but Kiwikaki will also be using his Vegas connections to set up distribution to the biggest hotels on the Las Vegas strip.

(P)RotterdaM and (P)ToD are going to use their knowledge and connections in the European rave scene to help start distribution there, but as part of Catz' master plan they will also use the current European economic crisis in order to run for office in their respective countries and eventually bring in of the legalisation of medicinal coca throughout Europe, of which Root will be the only officially sanctioned supplier.

(Z)Fitzyhere, (P)PuCK, and (T)MaSa are there to try and influence American college and high-school kids to start using cocaine they will then oversee the distribution of that segment.

(T)Major was an extremely important pickup. Without him there is no way that Root would be able to get their coca through Mexico's dangerous borderlands into the US, he will use his extensive network to ensure safe transit of the cargo.

There is only one piece of the Puzzle missing. That is, you guessed it, (Z)CoCa. With him they can avoid arousing the suspicion of the law from continually talking about Coca, because they will think that they're just discussing the salary of their ace zerg.

I can see you've put a lot of thought into this.

ROOT is like an elephant's graveyard of old progamers who are probably never going to win a major tournament ever. Except Major. Ironically.

Definitely didn't see this one coming. Very cool pickup, ToD is a great player.
The world ends when you’re dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man and give some back.

So much for quietly getting a top NA roster, its loud and clear, sick zergs protoss and terran on that roster. It makes a lot more sense if you consider the fact that major and tod stayed at the gom house at the same time! GL

If KiWiKaKi really come back for HotS, ROOT will have an even more impressive Toss crew.
