I highly doubt anyone on ROOT is making a salary and those that may aren't making more than minimum wage or are fueled on easy credit. They have no financial sponsors and fail to do any media exposure.

Congrats to Nathanias for the smart move.

how did they get a teamhouse in california? ( do they still have it lol? )

Catz selling calendars door to door?

Crowd Funding.

for real? Didnt know that. Thought it was all sponsors.

Im proud of yall guys!

Proud of what? They got crowd funding because they promised to release regular content from the house for the community. Then they took the money and got an unnecessarily expensive house (with a swimming pool mind you). They have yet to release any kind of content whatsoever.


Swimming pools & no immediate content combination killing esports.

I like this imagery so much that this is now how I will always picture ROOT paying for anything, just through catz's masterful calender sales pitches.


There was me thinking it was a ROOT lemonade stand, with the O's being lemons and everything.

People who pay to support teams hardly ever do it simply for expected gains. This isn't kickstarter. And many of Root's members contribute quite a bit to weekly shows.

Doesn't really matter tough. If you promise something you better hold yourself to it no matter that "people did it from the good of their selfless hearts" as you are implying.

Not sure if this is what he was talking about, but inbetween Acer cup casts he spent the entire ~1.5 hours bitching about Protoss, and when TB joined the RC/Skype channel/call the both of them were circle jerking over how bullshit toss is.
But at what cost ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)

I was joking because every single protoss I played vs during that period (I somehow only played vs toss) did some form of one-base all-in

I try to be a real person when I'm not trying to work for other people, I apologize if as a player my thoughts on the game are not the same as when I cast :D it's the heat of the moment!

To be fair, I play Protoss and all I do is one base all-in.


Except in PvP.

Doubt many people knew he was on ROOT in the first place - which speaks volumes for ROOT itself. Anyway, leaving an unsignificant team with no merit to it's name, isn't something to worry about if you have high goals.
