What is it with Koreans and their attraction to the shadiest organizations around?


I can answer that I think, it's Min-Sik Ko.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I dont understand this yet, never heard of trig. but I trust MC knows what he's doing by now. I also recognise the xPeke name even though i'm not huge on the LoL scene so I gather he's a pretty big deal to have on the team too.

hopefully this works out, if not I hope MC gets onto a korean team and smashes some GSL and proleague!

Seems like a really random investment from what ever it is that Trig does.

Trig esports advisers

Madeleine “Maddelisk” Leander as consultant and expert.
In 2013, she became the female world champion in Starcraft II and in addition to winning tournaments with her team “Millenium”, she was recently awarded ‘Gamer of the Year’s by the esports organization Sverok.

Ugh, this makes me so mad. MC would have been so much better on a Korean team, or even a pseudo-KR team like mYi or dPix. This looks so freaking shady.

Events in Dubai?? Who the hell will go?? The only people who actually live in Dubai are rich Saudis or those who got rich from the oil industry. How would that be a market for esports???

Ugh, Reis and MC are so... idk.
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

I tried to find any kind of info about Trig, and I wouldn't trust them to pay my bills. The best I could find were profit margins of the umbrella corporation amounting to about -1500€ per year, and these people want to build arenas... I worry for MC, but not going for any established team or brand is very foolish if you want security.
1000 at least.

If you want to read up a little about what they do and where they expect to get their money from you can read the prospectus for their share listings.

I mean nobody wants to admit they eat 9 cans of ravioli, but I did and I'm ashamed of myself. The first can doesn't count and then you get to the second, and the third. The fourth and fifth I think I burnt with the blow torch and I just kept eating.

Their website is atrocious, and those accounting and financial numbers are even uglier.

I was hoping this would make me feel better than their website but it made it worse. They have 15 employees and are losing hundreds of thousands of dollars a quarter. That list of risks is laughable too. Their main future source of income is a facebook clone, of which thousands have failed before. I would not infest in this company or trust my paycheck to come from them.

On an unrelated note, why is Maddelisk going to keep MC from trash talking? What did I miss?

I dont think it was ever specifically revealed, but their association with ESGN, Sapinda, and their compete lack of visible support for its players led people to doubt the integrity of GEM. And since they got acquired by IMG, nobody really knows what to think.

It is a very odd situation, particularly considering IMG is one of the largest (and therefore, reputable) talent representation agencies in the world.
