Sad. But it was maybe too much players... 16... it was not a sc2 team but a rugby team + the coach.

It is not an investor thing, it's just a lack of growth. Don't make drama where this is none... please.

I still don't know who the sponsors of Quantic Gaming were.

The only teams I know the sponsors of are Evil Geniuses and Team Liquid among foreign teams.

I know StarTale and LG-IM's main sponsors too.



It's no wonder that sponsors are realizing their SC2 teams aren't worth the money when their players can't be bothered to remember to say 3 words at the end of every interview.


Really you don't know Fanatic - Raidcall?

but yeah its true, teams need to make players spread sponsors more. Hell, when I was in a clan with a minor sponsor, I was pasting it in every game I won. Root - Das keyboards? I thought col. made a sponsor obvious too, soundheiser or something?

Such a shame but it was expected. I don't know about there other gaming divisions but their SC2 division was just not providing results, it was not like they were the smallest of teams.

sTc, sase and golden are probably the most valued 'free agents'. Illusion is praised for his potential so he might be picked up fairly fast too.

Sad day. I will remember the team for Naniwa and Sase in their bright orange jersey tearing up tournaments.

I do believe smaller teams need to step up their game sponsor exposure wise.
Funny, just happened to me a day ago. My friend needed help with what mouse to chose. He found a steelseries and an other mouse equally good but couldn't decide between them. I instinctively said to him to go with steelseries. I don't know why, maybe because of those EG interviews.

I'm not making drama, I'm trying to avoid drama, if you read my post. What else am I supposed to call it when people talk about the investors pulling out, but an investor thing? If it's completely false, you guys need to come out and properly inform us. It's the only way to stop speculation.

Otherwise, yes, people are going to discuss the ramifications of the abrupt disbanding of one of their (and mine) favourite teams.

Yeah. Makes me wonder if EG is too much at the center of things in eSports that other teams (such as Quantic) fall by the wayside. That and there's a lack of growth so its sort of a survival of the richest.


It's not EG's fault so many teams do such a HORRIBLE job of promoting their sponsors. So often I have to hear the interviewer remind players to shoutout their sponsors and half the time they just say "thanks to my sponsors" without naming them so we have no idea who they are.

It should be at the top of every player contract that they have to bring up their sponsors' names every time they do an interview or else they get fined.

Fair point Zzoram. To be honest, I'm not sure I could mention any sponsors from a team that isn't one of TL, IM, EG or FXO (only one though ). I mean, I could probably list five or six of EGs, though half of them might not be their sponsors anymore.
