Imagine the amount of teasing going on by Mvp and Nestea for stealing his GSL wins

Stealing would be the wrong word here, seeing that they clearly deserved the GSLs over MKP.

why is STX on this? Are they in that much trouble? I would've figured Prime or NSH as the top two, dunno who else after lol. NSH wasn't a particularly strong team and I'm sure their members can still continue with other teams when they close down if they want to continue.

Don't worry, FXO already released Drunkenboi, JimRising and jEcho to free up funds.

It was an interview and you can read it here : http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=418767

Well he IS trying to find new sponsors for a very long time now...see how Team 8 struggled to get a sponsor whereas they are member of KeSPA which basically is an organisation fielded by chaebols representatives with contact books larger that you could ever imagine and you can get an idea of how hard it is to get a sponsor for an eSF team if you don't have 5+ GSL titles. There was a big surge of sponsorship from energy drinks brand, everybody got one except Prime, i know they are trying tho...almost every single eSF team has an energy drink as a sponsor but not Prime.

The only brand left that is not sponsoring someone is Monster...i really wish Prime could get some of that Monster money, but look at where Monster is investing money, and it's not into "promising" talent but much more into established team/competitions with marketing people working there.

+ the new WCS system, which basically locks down korean players that can't afford to travel half way across the world and you have a situation where marketing yourself toward companies that have little to no business in Korea impossible, unless, again, you can afford to field your players in other WCS regions.

This is a circle of the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer, i guess you could call it survival of the fittest, but still i want to believe that Prime will stay. Maru just has to win the OSL and WCS Season 2 i guess ^_T
