Official Team Ascension 2015 Team House Information Thread
Important Information: We currently have 2 players ready to move in. We are looking for 2-3 people who can commit/lock in for a move in date within the next 30-40 days. Our deadline is March 1st, but we don't necessarily have to all be at the house by that time.
Cost breakdown per person is available here.
Patreon can be found here.
I'm happy to announce that since our last update, Team Ascension has made a lot of progress in our quest to setup a North American team house. A potential location has been selected and crowd funding efforts are up and running. Our goal is to provide a facility where players of all backgrounds, semi professional or professional, younger or older, can practice the game they love and be surrounded by people who share their drive.
Players in the house will be actively streaming and practicing with each other for events, online and offline.
Finally, thank you to everyone that has expressed interest in this project so far. Team Ascension and I will be working 110% to make this happen, and any help from the public would mean the world to us and the potential residents!
-Travis "AprilTerran" Yang
The current location we're looking at is in the Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri. It's about 3 hours from Kansas City, and 2 hours from Springfield.
Currently Team Ascension is directing all financial support we receive, towards the team house. This means that regardless of who lives there (even if you’re not on the team), we will still be working to lower their individual costs.
If you have any inquiries or are interested in living here, please email travis.y@teamascension.co. We are committed to transparency and will answer everything to the best of our ability.

Looks cool. hope this works out for you guys. Do you have any personal rewards? overall stuff is cool, but maybe a T-shirt or personalized video for like 10-15$ patreon-ers could possibly help your funding. the community loves that stuff.

Thank you for the kind words and suggestion! Unfortunately for the jerseys, they cost about $25 right now (including shipping) through our partners at Ownaj. We'll be brainstorming rewards these next few days!

So excited this is finally happening!

Yeah, i get it. it doesn't have to be a T-shirt, but i know a lot of people like tangible things they can see/touch when they donate. knowing your helping reach the milestones is cool, but it's awesome to get something personal for helping out. You could even do things like they get 1 2v2 a month with any pro on your roster, replay packs from your players, etc.

Were literally going to need that at this point especially in the summer when many others are coming for a boot camp type thing.

That is a lot to pay unless the house is full, I hope all the players will be making nice donations from streaming!

Noregret, Ruff, and I are gonna do our best to hold it down for a 4th and 5th player, theres lots who are considering its just a matter of finding people who are serious,

Good luck to you guys, hopefully you actually find enough committed players to stay for the long-term.

Hey man if your interested I can answer any questions you have I'm fairly sure I've seen you on ladder befor

1500 a month for a house like that? Missouri is cheap as fuck
|
Didn't know Noragrets and kamker were fulltime.
Good luck to everyone involved looks like fun!
|
$1300 a month for a house... I'm getting ripped off in Chicago
|
Best of luck! Looks awesome :D
|
My main concern is that if the house is in central US I'd assume that the connection to EU/KR is gonna be shit, no?
But regardless, GL to you. Shit looks pretty dank.
|
When I saw how nice the house was, I was thinking damn these guys are fools. That must cost an arm and a leg. :D But, looks like a great project. I'm tempted to move in. Pretty sick that you guys are doing something like this in the current sc2 climate.
