as other have pointed out, bringing in results and printing tags on clothes doesnt seem to be enough, teams definitely need to work on promoting sponsors much more than what korean teams are currently doing, in fact the only team that does it enough (based on the fact that its the only team I can instantly connect sponsors to) is EG. | ||

This could also happen to a KeSPA team. --------------------------------- Much love and respect to KeSPA for trying to help IM out on this. Sorry LG, but if you fail to be fair in the business you run, I'm never going to buy anything from your company again! Sending them a mail about it as well. This situation is just ridiculous. LG abused IM's respect for them. | ||

You would think reputable company like them would probably do anything to make themselves even better but seems the opposite of what e-sports are | ||

From an objective point of view all we have here are claims of some people, who have a position allowing them to use public for their support. Regardless the truth in their statements. If what they are saying is true, the person responsible for sponsorships in the IM team should lose job immediately for allowing the team to were the LG tags for almost a year without contract. In most cases people do sth like this you are looking for a fraud. Also, deciding not to buy a company's merchendise because of what PR people did or did not is plain stupid. That a group of people in a company made (if...) a mistake, doesn't mean their products got worse. And honestly this actions may only backfire your beloved teams in the long term. | ||

Will IM soon be on KeSpa? I guess it would make sence for them, since they are the only eSF team on the same level as the Kespa teams... Also the fact that Kespa helps them out is a sign imho. | ||
