I really like Bruce's honesty AND he makes a good case.

Good luck to slivko i really hope that patchzergs aren't a real thing for his sake.

He is just mediocre EU zerg, there is a lot of same level zergs (sortof, targa, jonnyrecco... etc). I doubt someone will suggest him better deal than Rox did. Bruce made everything right, especially explaining all things as they are. I heard Empire wanted to pick up some zerg, but again, I doubt they could suggest him better conditions than Rox. Without team support it may become an end of Slivko's esports career.

Was def a dick move, especially for a patch zerg. He better find a team quick before the next patch!


Yea he's such a patchzerg. I mean look how bad he was pre-patch, only getting top 8 IEM barely losing to SuperNova! Horrendous!

Sad to say, but we are forced to say goodbye to Artem. There are many reasons for this, but main - the player wants to receive more [money], without working with the community. We were ready to make better terms, only if he would regularly stream and promote partners [sponsors]; but for Artem (and a whole category of players) want to just play and receive a growing salary, and travel to all foreign tournaments. Sadly, for the team and it's partners there is no financial gain in this.

Working with the community = streaming on twitch.tv?

This is getting a bit ridiculous, so I'll give my opinion: Fuck streaming. Progamers streaming some pointless ladder games seem like a total waste of time to me. That time would definitely be better spent doing actual training, you know, the stuff that koreans do in order to own everyone else (and proceed to acquire the currency that Roxkis seems to crave)

I completely understand and support the reasoning of the general manager. All the recent attention must have turned Slivko's head.

+1, anyone streaming is not training seriously at that time which essentially is wasted time unless you settle for the money that streaming brings putting results on a lower priority

Slivko can have it hard to find a new team. Problem: He is a foreigner but he can't really speak good english as far as i know

Thanks for an honest statement. Obviously it's the team statement, and they should put out what they feel protects them. There is nothing stopping slivko from responding, either. I think this sort of transparency is a good thing.

If this is part of your contract you have to do it, no matter what. Streaming brings money to the team via commercials.

Brand awareness. These teams don't make enough money off of their cut of prize money to sustain themselves, there's an oversaturation of players/teams. I'd guess that at most major tournaments less than 25% of the field makes money back, which means teams aren't making a ton of money themselves. The only way to turn profits (these are businesses after all) is through sponsors. Sponsors want something for their buck - promotion of their products. Streaming and plugging their product gets the name out there. Thus, the requirements for streaming by teams for their players.
