At what point are they just too young? I'm not sure we should be recruiting SC2 players before a certain age

I think he's joking.

I am on my phone so it's hard time quoting right now but concering najzmajs his skill , I was team mates with him in his old team AT gaming like 1 and a half year ago and he improved a lot since then he doesn't improve fast but he does also marketing wise he is an excellent choice he's been interviewed multiple times including an interview with the Swedish tv svt6 if I'm not mistaken and his stream numbers are decent.

Also for age it does not matter super much they can compete in most things like others and when they have a contract it's just a sign more.

Also I think they defenitly get more than practice I know najzmajs got gaming gear and support and such I could see it happen that he gets less but atleast gaming gear and such and I think back up to events as well but I am not 100% sure about the latter.

Edit: sorry for sloppy writing and to much use of also , I should sleep lol

Neat that they picked 3 really young guys for their academy. I mean I doubt they cost root anything, and they can help lead those kids to reasonably balanced school/progaming careers or fulltime if they were good enough. Kind of has parity with some of the young guys (remember little maru a couple years ago?) that end up with teams in korea.

This is pretty awesome.. Seems a more functional and useful compared to other academies I've seen. Really interested in where this lands some players.

Overall, great job @ ROOT. ROOT4ROOT errday anyway.
