Kind of makes you wonder why TL doesn't get more sponsors. Maybe they don't want to have all the logos on their main page.

TL is on it's way to becoming a super power like EG. But they're just not as active currently. TL is still primarily seen as a starcraft site

those wondering who astro are they were basically the main headset company for mlg back when Halo was a big deal(as in sponsored provided the daisy set-ups and basically used to sponsor everything mlg related). in regards to comfort their actually pretty comfy the only problem i find is cause the earpads are wool that if i do a long gaming session my ears tend to get a little hot.

Honestly TL has just as much ability to become EG if they want, they can bring so much to the table, the interviews they do at events, players, the website it self being a major hub of starcraft and dota now.

Sarcasm on par with the video, I approve.

To OP and those that conceived of the ideas, as well as the actors, great job guys. Viva Capitalism! Viva the tongue in cheek!

This is great that EG, is getting sponsors and all, but is it really Headlines? and even so, why isn't this done when other teams get sponsorships?


Because other teams post a one-liner on twitter when they get a new sponsor. And then wonder why it doesn't work out that well ~~... This is for sure worth a Headline, Video is awesome, its definitely community-related and stuff like this gets other companies with their money into the scene. I don't even know why only EG does stuff like this constantly, it establishes their brand and relates it strongly to the sponsor, so both sides benefit from it and the sponsor is highly interested in continuing the sponsorship cause the Team is already related to his own product/brand and it would be stupid to risk this high-value-advert with changing to another team. (And pls, don't say now it didn't work with SS, SS simply changed how they sponsor and who their sponsor, thats it).
It's not a simple: "We have xyz as a new sponsor we hope, and know blablablablablablablablablabla" cause that is not how a long-term sponsorship works. Thats the way the sponsor gets close to zero attention and says "fuck off" when the contract ends, ask some of the money-wise-disbanded teams and their sponsors...oh, you don't know their sponsors? There you have it...

Yeah that's a no-brainer... sponsors are extremely important. Also, great job on the video guys. Fucking hilarious.

Funny how there have been little to no complaints about new sponsors for other teams in community headlines, but when it happens to be EG people start complaining. Poor attempt at taking a jab at EG. Try harder next time please.

I remember seeing lots of head lines about the sponsoring of EG.

How is it a bad jab at EG? Is it controversial to think they are better at making hype videos and productions made in order to give the sponsors exposure than playing sc? I'm not jabbing at anything, I'm merely pointing out a fact.
