MC is already in Germany, either in Cologne (SK Gaming office) or Düsseldorf (reis' appartment). I guess Mvp will be whereever MC will be.

Well the team CEO lives there and the Acer PR HQ is in Munich. Kinda makes sense. Welcome to Bavaria MMA :D

Well, being close to the ESL studios doesn't really matter yet, since matches are played online for the moment... jaeh the moment, invest in future and i can say you ONE thing for sure! here and i bet on it: there wont be any big tournaments in bad tölz until 3200 A.C. (if the acer house not made them themself)
Well, it depends, maybe Acer didn't want (or had not enough money) to invest in a team house in, let's say, Cologne for exampel (I believe it acts as in France, the moment you get close to huge cities/city centers, flat/house prices go through the roof, correct me if i'm wrong).
Plus the fact that the contact info on their website says : Team Acer by esp entertainment e.K. Hindenburgstrasse 6 83646 Bad Tölz

(Inside joke for Germans) Still, very strange location, it's like setting up a gaming house in Montana... I feel left out ! Please explain !  It's a German TV series set in that very Bavarian town. The main character is a cop of bull-like statue.
Set in Bad Tölz, Bavaria, the series is about the activities of the local Kriminalpolizei as personified by Benno Berghammer (Ottfried Fischer), the eponymous Bulle (literally "bull", a slang word and the equivalent of "cop" but at the same time an allusion to his bulky appearance), and Sabrina Lorenz (Katerina Jacob), two Kommissare who invariably, at the beginning of each episode, are faced with murder in the seemingly idyllic small town of Bad Tölz or its rural surroundings.

Acer is a solid team. I hope they do well with this new house!
|
Pretty short first impressions.... looking forward to some more pics soon!
Also, this is pretty nice since I don't think there existed a capability in the EU region for temporary housing and boot camping of whole teams! I hope the place is short way from Munich airport for optimality.

I dunno... Munich is basically as far away from the WCS studio in Cologne as you can get while still staying in Germany... (edit: it's almost 5 hours from Munich train station to Cologne train station by train, and considering the apartment will not be right next to the Munich train station and neither is the WCS studio near the Cologne train station, a ride might take a full day)

Munich is also one of the most expensive areas in germany, but the beer is also one of the best in the world if not the best there ;P

probably. and though cheaper not too far away from munich.
I hope there's going to be an open day =) I'm so visiting this!

awesome!
|
Acer HQ is in Bad Tolz, The Gaming House is where Acer HQ is.
No master plan behind it. ^^
|
Let's hope this is the first of many!!
|
Rent is definitely not cheap there. The region south of Munich is one of the wealthiest regions of Germany. Has to be because of their offices being there or something. Still awesome. Hope to see more people stay there constantly.
