Also lol @Acer which braces fucking millions not being able to support 3 people, you can just say you hate starcraft that would be better. I'm pretty sure Kaoru still loves StarCraft even though he's really busy. He was on a podcast with Balrog and Imre, maybe one of them remember what Kaoru said about Acer involvment in StarCraft after the release of Legacy of the Void.

They didn't want to send you ?

Wish all the best to Nerchio, he definitely brings a unique flavour to the scene.
|
|
Artur earlier already not sure if Acer was going to send him to Dreamhack so I'm not too surprised. I mean, not sending your best player to an important tournament like that..
|
Even if Acer leaves the SC2 scene and does so with lousy PR we should be thankful Acer made a cool team and did some nice stuff over the years with SC2.
I love SC2 esports, however, it is not a charitable organization. Every metric indicates very slowly decreasing interest in SC2 so you can't blame these companies leaving the esports scene or lowering their support levels in the esports scene.
Good Luck To Nerchio. Thanks To Acer for your support.

Acer doesn't plan on dropping SC2, at least right now according to this tweet:
|
Sometimes you just have to part ways I guess. Acer's been a great team for a long time but gradually getting smaller now it seems. GL to Nerchio this year!
|
Nerchio and Acer parting ways feels weird after such a long time. But what makes me curious is that Team Acer originally announced they would send him to DH Leipzig. I wonder why they didn't wait until the end of the event to announce this.
Edit: woah i failed horribly embedding this tweet
|
also this one:
my French is really bad but i'm quiete sure it basically says the same (smth like not entirely shut out, but at the moment not, for sure)
|
It didn't sound so much like dropping out of SC2 with Nerchios additional comment but it does sound like they've really keeping it on a small scale . Reminds me of them patting themselves on the back on twitter for sending Scarlett to the last HSC...
|
".. At this moment" 10 seconds later "i think we should drop sc2"....
|
So Nerchio wanted more of that dirty esports money.
|
Not right now anyway. But maybe later
|
Sadly i think that having an "undefined" future means that this is probably heading to an end... Maybe if bly or scarlett have a nice performance it can relaunch it a bit ? not really sure tho.

Good Luck Nerchio, I hope you'll find new team soon.
