It's happened with so many other "teams" that end up being scams. No legitimate team just pops up with no recognition/support behind it. It's another scam. Wake up SC2 community. People need to contact Genius and Tassadar and tell them to stay away from these people. What's hilarious to me is how idiotic your attitude is. For one, no teams were "scams". Scamming implies an intent to make money off people by tricking them, not starting a business and failing miserably, until you have to bail with unpaid bills and a lot of lost money. For another, I'd love to see how you live your life if you scream about the sky falling every time you hear about something going poorly. The proper answer to situations like Quantic or Eclypsia or Azubu are proper checks and balances between the players and the management, and contracts that make it clear where and when responsibilities lie. That's how the real business world works, by having more accountability between employees and employers...not by taking the nuclear option and wiping out every organization as soon as one goes rotten. | ||

How is this even allowed to happen lmao? This SC2 that big of a joke now? People are now making threads saying: "Attention SC2 community, we are going to start a team to scam some more players!" and no one does anything. Someone please contact Genius and Tassadar and let them know that this will end up fucking them over. Alright I was gonna stay quiet because I know some people's opinions are dumb as hell but you just took the cake. Genius was teamless for months, he paid for his WCS EU attendence himself and now a team that has financial backing from its owner and has found an investor and a sponsor in sc2replaystats is willing to pay him and his flights. How in the hell is he getting scammed? He's making money where there was none before. If say the sponsors/investors pull out and payment issues do come up it still isn't a fucking scam, it's a business problem. If every time a team finds someone willing to invest their money the reaction looks like this then there's never going to be any teams and I 100% blame people like you for it. | ||

I mean I still can't choose LYGF as my favorite SC2 progaming team in my profile. That usually only comes with team league participation, and usually takes a while. I mean, Jin Air Green Wings still don't have an icon and they've been a thing (and highly recognisable) for months I must say, though, that I find the general attitude in this thread quite disappointing. By accepting an interview at all, they are already better than Azubu. Further, I'm a little confused by the idea that LYGF having acquired a (or several) sponsors is strange. Naturally, if you have no recognisable players attracting sponsors is difficult, and the same goes for the other way around - it's difficult to attract known players without sponsors. Lastly, LYGF isn't as new as some people seem to think. They didn't just pop up and for crying out loud, please keep the hostility to yourselves until there is even the slightest sign it will be necessary. | ||

You could however make an argument against what I said to make your standpoint look better. That's what someone who seeks actual intelligent debate would do. As did I, I explained to you why I think the arguments you made in your post are dumb. But that's not what you came here for, you came here to try and put as many "lmao"s as possible in your post and accuse people of scamming players when there's no ground to do it on. LMAO. Is this serious? Is this a troll thread? No it's in fact time that was invested into this interview to try and clear up questions the community had about a team so if there's nothing else you have to say other than "LMAO how is this even allowed to happen" then I feel just fine calling you on it. | ||
