Basically this means that if the investors hadn't pulled the plug so quickly, Quantic could now be up and running again with Mionix? | ||

Not sure, maybe Mionix alone didn't have the cash to keep it afloat. Regardless, Mionix's relative transparency in their dealings with the E-sports scene, including having a TL presence is great. I love their approach to the extent that my next mouse is definitely going to be one of theirs! | ||

It means Mionix saw what they thought was a great opportunity to become a major sponsor 'saving' a team. But as it turned out, the financial & organizational problems at Quantic were larger than Mionix had the ability to fix on their own. (all this with a big probably) Mionix could, of course, save the team by providing virtually all the money necessary to run it. But while Mionix is looking to get into the esports market (good for them!), they're not a huge company like a lot of other esports sponsors. That level of financial commitment is probably too much for them. As a very, very happy owner of a Mionix Naos 3200 I'm happy to see them looking to expand their esports involvement beyond Naniwa, and I take this as a sign they are looking for other notable sponsorship opportunities. P.S. And seriously, the Mionix Naos 3200 is really comfy. I even recommend it to non-gamers (with the internal LED turned off, of course). | ||

Which basically means they could have done it they had the investors mentioned the problems a bit earlier instead of pulling the plug at the last second and booting everyone. And yes, the Mionix mouses are incredible. How on earth they managed that for such a new company don't know. I think my next one will probably be a Mionix as well. | ||
