Who sponsor team MVP and Prime?

I had predicted this a long time ago despite Kespa apologists' denial. You can't blame players but you surely can blame Kespa.

A company named Lotte and they have partnerships with MYM and some Taiwanese team. MVP should be safe, same with Startale, IM, FXO and NSHS. I think we only have to worry about Prime.

And to be frank, my fanboyism for both Squirtle and Parting had gone down quite a bit from this saga. Don't get me wrong, I would probably have made the same choice were I put in their shoes. But that's why everyone is nobody. You want something different from your idols than yourselves.

Did Squirtle started his progamer career as a BW player and had a humble begining in a Kespa team like PartinG?

Wow surprising that Squirtle leaves the team too right after Parting. Big hit to ST.

Love Squirtle; he's had such an impact on the community just by being a consistent protoss player. GL to him on finding a new team!

^ If eSF is really dying, I think the strongest and richest teams will switch to KeSPA as well.

We'll see. If the introduction of EGTL in PL is anything to go on, being a "code S level" player doesn't mean anything in the competition in PL.

I know a lot of us here don't like Kespa. But on this issue, I don't see what is wrong with it. The players' contracts had run out. Are they just suppose to not offer players more money just because they are from eSF? How is this different from foreign teams who offer better salary/more chances at foreign events?

I think also long as they aren't tampering with players before their contracts are up, everything is fair game.

It's all about money here and money controls our lives. We all depend our life on a number and its kind of sad really that our minds shifted that way. Our human race will probably migrate to other planets any time soon or even at all because here we are on the planet earth that can even keep the whole world at peace. Pride for countries will always exist in people and as long as that is there we will always have hatred for one another... We are our own enemies.

Might of gotten off track here but squirtle has proven himself lately to be a calibre player so I think he deserves a decent salary. It's good to see a player trying to set a standard for esports And making sure they get paid right in the first place. Like my country we are starting to get an influx of Chinese migrants with sets of decent skills and are willing to work for $10an hour while the people already here were getting paid $50 an hour to do the same thing.

Even slayers Jessica tried to transfer MMA for an apparent ridic price but I respect her for trying to set the standard because everyone else were like "LOL, Chinese people can do a better job at $10 an hour".

Anyways I hope squirtle fulfil his dreams and find a decent team as teams seem quite scarce now and as an iPhone app developer in a saturated app market, I can feel the pain when the Kespa players transitioned as well as a hge number of saturated tournies.... We start to make less money individually.
I didn't want to work so I didn't.

I am less worried because ST is deep enough to STILL be one of the deepest ESF teams despite there recent losses.

only Ace is remaining as A-team protoss... Or you mean ST don't need protoss !?

Good luck to squirtle with finding a new team. He has already shown that he is a great player and I hope he will finally get a tournament win this year!
