Dafuq, can are sponsors even allowed to pull out short term? Don't they have midterm obligations or contracts with the team?

Startale already has better Protosses on their team, to whom they're probably paying much less salary than what Sase was making. Why would they want to add Sase?

That really ducks I enjoyed that the team was around to offer a more competitive edge to the foreign scene . Seems about right that the players mentioned would be sase illusion and thestc. I think thestc is a good acquisition in terms of having a consistent Terrain for any team., the others I'm not sure lately so we ail have to see. Also at this stage in the game I don't think EG or Liquid would pick up these players but that's my 2 cents

Something must have gone up in flames behind the scenes. It's a pity it happened this way.

For the foreign appeal. If they want exposure and interest internationally, then SaSe can provide this. Personally I don't believe that Startale will acquire SaSe, but the idea is not ridiculous especially as SaSe may be open to taking a bit of a hit to his salary to represent and train with Startale.

They weren't sponsors, they were investors.

I think they would be willing to take on SaSe, but SaSe would have to take a huge cut in pay/benefits. With how low those probably already were don't think the situation is ideal for SaSe. Though it would be really cool to see ST_SaSe

Sad news, but perhaps the silver lining would be the other NA teams can boost their ranks (Itsgosu,I7,Light)...im pretty sure i read Light was looking for players, though it would be weird for Golden to go back

Maybe its an annual sponsorship and their sponsors decided not to renew in 2012. Presumably their lease is also annual.

I would've thought investors also can't just pull out when they feel like it, but I'm no expert.

I can't imagine anyone who isn't already a fan of Startale would become one because of Sase.

To increase foreign interest? I don't see it happening but the potential gains are there. Of course Sase hasn't done anything noteworthy in awhile so probably not.

Been waiting for this to happen tbh...not sure about their other squads but the sc2 roster had been quite bloated for awhile. I'm sure they weren't paying everyone but still, they were clearly spending a lot of money and getting very little return...no results and no marketing is not going to make sponsors happy.

Here's hoping the truly dedicated players find a new home, and the ones who were never going to win anything realize it and move on to something more rewarding.
omnipotence...got to get me some of that
