Still more sponsors than Western Wolves,and they do have expensive players.
Maybe they will be less the ''stars'' they were before but its still a strong and skilled team.

Western Wolves actually have alot of commonly underrated players, don't they? I do not think it was too expensive to sign Sting, Daisy and check for one.

Any European or American team with Koreans has to have quite a lot of money to burn. WW flies its Koreans across the world very often, and that's a HUGE expense - at least a couple of thousand dollars per player per tournament. Salaries probably cost less than travel and accommodation. They also have to pay for Daisy living in Europe (currently in the mYinsanity house, together with StarNaN). You also have to consider payment of any Korean translator, or a Korean manager they might have, the expense of translating any contracts in Korean, and making sure there is always someone to take care of the players when they're in a foreign tournament.

Wasn't there some similar news where a team didn't get sponsorship? Was it LG-IM actually?

Thank you. So it's not something unsurprising.

I wonder if these big companies are starting to feel like big investment aren't worth it.
We don't have any team with a head sponsor anymore since EG has been dropped by Raidcall.

This was going to happen eventually. Surprised it even took this long, but it is still very unfortunate for IM.

Incredible Miracle and LG's contract was until the October of 2012, and after that, IM hasn't been payed


One year. Can't say they didn't try.

Shame. Real shame. I hope IM can pull through until they find another major sponsor (unless they survive with current ones).

Will take some adapting to the lack of LG in every player's name.

LG, I am disappoint, but I guess LG can enjoy their bad reputation as a sponsor.
