Until the players and journalists stop referring to the team as LG-IM, I think I'll keep calling them that - there has been no word from the team that they're no longer being sponsored by LG, despite them (apparently) not getting any money. | ||

Filling the gap... People not involved in the scene taking guesses of finacial situations they have no idea how are in real life. | ||

Well cause Kespa dominance in the e-sports scene in Korea is now guaranteed, inc. in SC2 with proleague teams looking much healthier than GSTL. No reason for Kespa to have beef against eSF especially once the trade-lock is over. | ||

An OP starts a hype around the finacial situation regarding Incredible Miracle with absolutley no knowledge regarding the current situation. It gives false hope to hundreds of interested fans and is just a castle made of sand. | ||

If they don't pay whether they can be prove that they are right but IM / Kespa insists on doing so, their market on Korea will just fall heavily. You're so oversizing it lol SC2 as a whole basically cover half a million people at max internationally. That's very small for a company like LG. | ||

No way in hell does 25-30% watch esports. I think you might not grasp how big LG is. | ||

Is IM really that valuable to LG for exposure? That would be like 10-15% of their whole Korean target group covered by IM, no? | ||
