There is something fishy in this transfer.

mousesports is Germany's top clan but didn't have a top team since their CS 1.6 flagship has gone. I think their other teams (Dota2, LoL?) aren't doing so well. They can't just do nothing, so I guess they started investing.

LucifroN and VortiX weren't committed fulltime into SC2 when they were offered a spot in EG, so maybe they didn't feel like going fulltime for EG or EG's offer wasn't as good because of that. They were mostly only known by insiders back then.

And don't neglect the positive effects of WCS EU. Suddenly, investing in SC2 is much more interesting for everyone. Such a sick day for the European scene. A new strong team is forming, ASUS ROG and Homestory Cup announced. The future is looking bright!

I understand all of this but at the same time, mouz has DotA2, LoL, WoT teams. Those can't come cheap.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this isn't a great transfer for all parties bar K3. It's just that there are things that aren't very clear here.

Damn, that's quite possibly the best pickup they could get. Gz for Vortix and Lucifron, and ofc Mousesports.

There is more to a transfer than just money. The most likely case would be that Lucifron and Vortix would not like the contract they've been offered. Maybe they wouldn't want to stream a certain amount of time a week, or they had absolutely no interest to ever go to Korea to play in Proleague. Maybe they wanted to stay with an European team. I would guess (based on tournament winnings) that neither Lucifron nor Vortix are poor, so money would most definitely not be the only factor for them when switching a team.

Maybe they don't want to join EG?

That's complete bullshit. They had their brother as manager. Why would you want to leave the best playing condition possible if not for money ?! Besides it's not like EG is demanding with their contracts. Stephano did the stuff he wanted all the time without any problem.

And it's not as if mouz was any successful right now. MaNa is carrying them in team league and they stand at 3-5 in the ATC while K3 is 5-2 (thanks to the brothers and Socke). They had no players in the top 8 of the WCS.

Thus this transfer is fishy. Something doesn't make sense here and if we consider what K3's owner tweeted, there is room for questioning.


Its very simple: the main reason is: they become full time profesional players. It had to be sooner or later and they need to grow up as profesionals practising with other top european players and going more usually at tournaments. the problem is now for Karont3 and the sc2 spanish scene.

Outstanding! Happy for them, and I can't wait till the day when the brothers go head to head in a tournament, have a falling out and Lucifron quits, only to join MouzeSports rival (TTeSports??) and challenge his brother to a bo100.

I don't know what is unclear to you. Mousesports is the greatest european esports team you could wish for, they can remain in europe, they get salery, they get all trips paid, they get great practice partners, they don't have to stream all the time and they don't have to drink Redbull or something else all the time.

Sounds pretty good to me.
