While it's definitely disheartening that Check-Six is closing and it's obviously becoming tougher for entry and mid-tier teams to stay established, this is probably not solely a result of the growth of e-sports, but likely a result of the e-sports structure itself. Teams are small businesses and as with any emerging business, it takes some luck, some skill, and the right people to make it all work out. Teams come and go as a result, and it's been like this within e-sports since its inception. It's one of the greatest and worst things about e-sports. I wish Curt the absolute best, though. He's an absolutely great person from what I know of him! | ||

August 2010 would be since the Starcraft 2 release date. The article also mentions their CounterStrike team, so they have been around for a while. :D So sad, so sad. Hopefully NA gets more competitive semi-pro teams.. | ||

You need huge money or huge popularity to survive as a team in the long run. Is Liquid even considered an NA team? It was founded by Nazgul (Netherlands) and only 2 of the 8 players on its roster are from NA. The only thing NA about Liquid is the website/business side of things where they're based out of New York, if I''m not mistaken. If anything it's a European team. EG and ROOT seem to be the only leftover NA teams that get any publicity. | ||
