I thought that Project Dark-horse was for up and coming players and not old veterans that failed.
There have been plenty of small online cups for them to prove themselves but they haven't.

I was really looking forward to see some new talent, both korean and foreigner...

Hey,
I'm the guy who won the first uniform set for this.


I'm actually kind of upset that my money is going to go to a player who obviously gave up on a game when he and it were down, to take a way to obviously just jump on the bandwagon and make more money.


Who's to say they wont do this tournament, blow the $800 I gave to this project, and then just give up again?


What a waste if you ask me. I wish I would've just given my money directly to a player I support.

It also doesn't seem to quite gel with what is said in the description in the first post of this thread. Coca and puzzle are hardly new pro gaming talent. They are both proven talents who have had success before. As you said it's even worse that they left the game for its biggest competitor. It would be a lot more interesting if this went to up and coming talent who would struggle to be able to find the funds to compete at a big tournament.

Dark Horse = DH = DreamHack

Coincidence? You decide.

ORIGIN
PROJECT DARK HORSE represents the efforts of Cyber Sports Network to satisfy the final wish of Korean professional pro-gaming Team SlayerS. When Team SlayerS owners Kim 'Jessica" Ka Yeon and Lim "BoxeR" Yo Hwan decided to close the doors on their world-renown organization, they asked CSN to distribute the last of their team gear, and to use any money collected to help new pro-gamers.

MISSION
True to the intentions of the original benefactors, Jessica & BoxeR of Team SlayerS, PROJECT DARK HORSE is a non-profit organization that auctions and distributes donated pro-gaming team apparel, memorabelia, and related items to raise funds in support of new pro-gaming talent. Participating esports fans will direct their donations to deserving candidates, allowing fans to directly support the players they love and to earn something in return.

Neither Coca nor Puzzle failed...both of them were some of the most talented players of their time, even if they never did win a GSL (but how many players can say the did).
