EPTThe other truth might be, that a company is not willing to throw away its money for an investment (player) that isn't worth it. There is no reason to view dignitas as a vilian here.

It's the cycle of life; let it close and open your talent and sponserships up for other more stable teams to build up with Not so sure about that. They have one of the strongest North American League of Legends team, whose mid player Scarra has 10 - 30k viewers alone just on his personal stream. Not to mention the money they get from their league team exposure. Rather than Dignitas starving, I believe they're waiting for HotS to see who looks the most promising, rather than picking up someone who might not adapt too well. | ||

Yeah, to interpret this as Dignitas crumbing is dumb. They have always been one of the most stable esport teams, the fact that they are not giving salaries to players that dont preform is not a sign of anything. But ODEE did talk about Dignitas strategy going forward on the last GDshow and they might not focus to much on thier SC2 squad. | ||

upon being told "No" once again by the Team Dignitas management he declined to sign and was replied to with "lol ok" from Team Dignitas Managing Director Michael "ODEE" O'Dell. Ouch.. Seems like Michael didn't feel like patch zergs had any worth either. Oh well. I wish you luck Paul. Hopefully you get a stream up in Hots. User was warned for this post | ||

In business everything needs to be in the contract. Hope he learned from this. Few players get liveable salaries, looks to me like JR thinks he is worth more than he is.

As much as TB likes to support the UK scene I think there are a bunch of UK players that are more worthy of support. | ||

Also committing oneself to a player when drastic changes in the competitive scene will be happening due to HotS, it was the better decision i think. Can't help but feel that the Dignitas management is always so arrogant though :X | ||
