Whenever i think of homestory cup the first thing that comes to my mind is XMG and Take's interview/conversation with them :D Really cool transparency from you guys, good job ![]() Lets hope with the release and Hype of LOTV there will be more opportunities for you guys to work profitably with our scene. | ||

...fans of TeamLiquid and the unique atmosphere this community provides makes it a very special place, as certain aspects that are quite "annoying" in the industry... Nod. | ||

Apollo is awesome, can't believe you managed to get him on your team =D congrats He has a personal sponsorship, he isn't in the team. | ||

XMG really feels like a vital addition to HSC though, I cannot imagine HSC without XMG. | ||

The style of this short part seems a bit in contrast to the rest of the article, which makes it weird. Why has SC2 got harder to justify for you? I don't think everyone "understands" if you don't at all explain it. ![]() | ||

Taking trash players just because some of them got vagina is not the way you make your team successful User was warned for this post While you seem to be an angry person, Maddelisk has a positive attitude, more SC2 skills than you, and good looks. She got hired maybe also because of her looks? Why don't you sue XMG? | ||

Also SC2 seems to be a harsher in terms of ROI for us, after all we need to sell 1-2 things in order to maintain our standards in eSport and justify our expenses. Mostly the whole and fall off in terms of social media range and overall CTR is a bit problematic. Call to action does not really work as well as in other titles and the overall interest decreased, yet to get involved into the scene is not that much cheaper. Yet I am confident that if we do it right, it can still be a lot of fun and helpful to the company in the same time | ||

The final expansion of SC2 is not even in beta now. The best days are yet to come. If someone supports the game early, he is not just one of many later. | ||

They have moved away from players so that they can continue to support their community figures and events (like homestory cup). That's still a large investment from my point of view. Wow those Madelisk workout videos. She is RIPPED. | ||

Big businesses may sometimes be born the way you describe but so many more fail because they took too many risks that didn't pay off. Remember how NASL was millions in debt? | ||
