There are a lot of Liquid guys who fancy the little Terran.

I wouldn't be shocked if we ever see him in the white and blue.

yeah, I could definitely see that. That would be good on all ends in my opinion. Since Jinro left, there is a large hole that the Gorilla terran left in our hearts and TL's depth. I would love Liquid`Illusion

To further clarify, if there SC2 team was the HUGE profitable and growing endeavor... its not like investors would just back out.


This is basically it, Quantic failed at some point in its operations to monetize the team in a manner that would compensate investors. Whether through streaming, tournament performance or just over extension It isn't terribly complicated.


Speaking from an inside perspective on Quantic, and on the scene in general:

I highly doubt that ANY team properly monetizes it's PLAYERS in such a way that it compensates investors. With VERY FEW exceptions, the entire scene is largely funded by personal funding from team owners, venture capitalists and other investors.


Yes, but people aren't in the habit of throwing money away. They are spending on/sponsoring teams for an eventual return.

I think we would all say that we want E-sports to grow, but what does that mean? I would contend that for E-sports to be heading in the right direction (this is obviously aimed at SC2 teams, but is important for E-sports in general) that the number of viable career paths in that specific market need to be on the rise. This is far different from people professing the success of SC2 based solely on the fact its carried on some of the legacy of SC1. Not saying that it hasn't grown, but I think because of certain decisions the market is inherently limited. Teams like Quantic will continue to go under because of it as well.

I think 3 things that have caused this are: 1. Koreans being allowed to compete in every NA event and take most of the prize pool back to Korea. 2. The game itself has been severely limited. 3. Not fully engaging the investment/return aspect of growing a scene like this.

Regardless, at the end of it all I feel bad for the players. I hope they find teams. I hope SC2 grows.

That picture?

Aphrodite made that tweet yeah, and flo replied on that tweet just saying "<3" (in case you didn't notice that part), the guy wasn't implying that status was from flo herself or anything like that, just so you know.

Sucks that new teams die off. I hope 2013 will be something different, where new teams can stay a lot longer.

The owner seems to really love his team. He must have put it before himself on many occasions. That, and branding.

Paves the way to Liquid'Flo, probably the second best possible name other than Liquid'Sea, of course.

Oh, and of course, this is sad and all. When SlayerS died, we all said "Well yeah, Korean team with no money and crazy management." But now that Quantic has died, it really brings the volatility of teams into much more of a discerning light.
