Since our Inception in 2012, Clarity Gaming has stood as a bastion of support and friendship for both aspiring and established professional gamers. Having emerged at a time of great upheavel in the Starcraft 2 scene, Clarity not only remained alive but thrived. From the start of our organization dedication and persistence have been our cornerstones, family and duty our watchwords. The Clarity flag has been represented by extraordinary young men from all around the world and flown proudly from MLG to Dreamhack, from Seoul to Singapore. It has been a long, hard road with as many rewards and achievements as obstacles but eventually every path and every journey must come to an end.

Today is a bittersweet day, the proverbial turning of the page. For two years now, through adversity and success the men and women of Clarity Gaming have forged a brotherhood by which all of us are bound. As an organization, Clarity wasn’t immune to mistakes or failures but the family that was created as a result of our struggle will live on through the years in the hearts and memories of all those who served. It is this comraderie and spirit of friendship that made this team such a special and unique place, a place you could truly call home.

It is our sincere hope that the community understand that Clarity’s closing is not a statement on the current state of any game or scene, we truly believe both Starcraft 2 and Hearthstone have bright future’s ahead of them. I have tremendous faith in the resiliency and potential of the North American eSports community and eagerly look forward to seeing more records broken and more dreams coming to fruition.

There’s simply not enough space or time to appropriately thank every individual who had a hand in the success and atmosphere of Clarity Gaming. From the sponsors, to the fans, media and community outlets, players and staff (both past and present); we could not have made it as far as we did without your support. With a heavy pang of sadness, we wish you a fond farewell as our final chapter now ends.

Brandon Altman
CEO, Clarity Gaming INC

Sucks, but not unexpected. Was hoping with the renewed vigor shown around November of last year you all could continue on, but apparently not. ):

Thanks for everything you did for the community! And thanks for giving me a chance as a caster.

Clarity, you were one of the most stable teams out there, and one of the best organizations in the North American scene. You'll be dearly missed.

They say it isn't, but it's a dead game! (jests)

I'm actually surprised this didn't happen long ago, so kudos for their resilience! All good things come to an end, right?

So funny you are , sorry thath somewone tried to make a good team , thath at some point had very good players like dragon , a teamhouse , and i have lots of respect for them because they had americans , they gave a change to some to play this game like a PRO .

I hope you are happy now , go celebrate somewhere else , and leave us alone !

Well, I genuinely think this sucks... farewell, Clarity Gaming.

Ouch, always sucks to hear of a team disbanding. D: Hadn't really heard much about them, but still a shame nevertheless.

Man, really sad to hear. I loved clarity and they had a lot of players that I cheered for. Plus they were really active for the first year with regular write-ups on TL about their team which made it really easy to keep following their players and keep cheering for them. Even though it didn't work out in the end, I think a lot of teams could learn a few things about what clarity definitely did right.

Farewell Clarity. You'll be missed!

You really consider those on the same level?
