I don't have any problem with you sponsoring who you want but your reasoning is the principal reason there is thousands unemployed citizens all over europe. Yes there is ALWAYS people willing to accept worse conditions in other part of the world but that's no reason to accept that in our countries ... I am very shocked by that rhetoric. Lol. Yeah no, it's not about the fact that Axiom is taking in the progamers who are "willing to accept worse conditions" than others, but rather about supporting the better players. Korean players on average practice more as well as more efficiently than their foreigner (and NA in particular) counterparts, which is why they are more skilled at the game. And by the looks of it, Axiom looks like it intends to be a team willing to cultivate and grow these lesser known talents from the korean scene and develop them into potential champion material. Quite frankly I could not agree more with such a view. I mean if you enjoy watching a high diamond / low masters player who calls people faggots on his stream but is bad at the game, that is completely fine and it's your right to support him if you so desire. But I personally don't. I care about the more skilled player. At the moment, most of these players are korean, therefore I am more interested in them and I will support them and follow them. More on-topic, I think this is a terrific idea and more or less a logical progression of things considering CranK's pre-existing personal sponsorship. TotalBiscuit, you are an amazing, amazing person and I have a tremendous amount of respect for you and gratitude for what you have done for the scene and just gaming in general. I wish you and Axiom the best of luck in your future endeavours and look forward to additional news (as well as seeing more of CranK's play hehe). | ||

The morons in this community never cease to amaze me with the depth of stupidity they can stoop to. Want easy money? Start an eSports team! Said nobody with any sense ever I just mentioned the easy money because with your connections(Yours, Huskys, Gennas,) your degree of publicity in the (Starcraft) Esports scene and the success you had in your latest projects, it makes it much easier to communicate and negotiate with possible sponsors. And as Genna stated in her reddit Q&A there have been lots of players that approached you. And there is still a chance that the publicity you will gain may be enough to even out the financial problems in the long run. Even if it doesnt work out as you expected. You are having a huge loss in money in the beginning? Well, of course. Nearly every business faces this problem. No surprise at all. If i had all of this, sure, i would give it a try  | ||

How about you work for it instead of saying how much he got? | ||

Why should i work for it. With my connections, and my possibilites i would never be able to start an esports team. But with my connections and my possibilites i could open a car dealer chain. Please dont forget that not everybody here sees his future in the internet businness | ||

Also TB's putdowns of some of the more asinine comments in this thread made my day. | ||

 In the end it is just for the money, or publicity, and a little bit for fun and challnge, or whatever you want to call it. Even TB and friends cant afford such an expensive hobby as to own and manage an esports team. The biggest problem will be the language barriere in my eyes. | ||
