not sure if the psych ward thing is true, if it's a PR stunt or what, but if the guy is really having mental troubles i feel for him, and that's the more important thing than a starcraft team.

even if he has some kind of "history" with sketchy projects, who knows, maybe his mental trouble is an explanation for that too. if he's unwell he deserves treatment. no one is above this sort of thing

I couldn't even come up with this stuff. Unbelievable.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Has nobody in SC2 management/bussiness ever heard of a solvency check?

Seeing how most players are teenagers who are dreaming of dropping our of school to play computer games professionally, I'd go with "no" here.

So the supposed financier of the team has no money and start the whole thing because he is actually crazy...
Crazy for E-sports?
This is sad and hilarious at the same time

How hard is it for people to do some background checking on people they involve? 185 000 USD, really? If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is....

So where's all the always-positive shitposters who accuse of us killing esports whenever we correctly predict stuff like this to happen, or otherwise voice any kind of legitimate concern? Curious if any one of them has the balls to say anything.

Ok, my respect for the players involved went down. How can you play a game based on decision making an take such shitty career decisions?

That's about as rekt as u can get... Real shitty for the players, as I've had this happen on a much smaller scale I can relate. Hope they find good places T_T;;...

OK, so there's a Czech movie that has this story in it>
An aunt of a young rebel promises millions of Czech Crowns(money ) to a police academy if its boss changes this rebel to a policeman. Then is revealed that the aunt is crazy and was on a leave from psychiatric ward.
(Yes, it's a failed version of Police Academy)

Why this seems similar? Why?


I hope the owner gets together, sad for Welmu

You can't predict anything. You can take decision based on past actions and current information.

Mediking was the guy involved with NoDiceGaming, and more importantly, the *alleged match fixing* / Korean betting tournaments, sponsored by "Dragon's sponsor" and required 10 minutes of delay to cast.

I'm not accusing him or this new team of anything, but just making sure everybody remembers these things. Strange that the players would get involved with somebody that has such a shady history.

Add to that the fate of the guy's previous teams.
I understand that the SC2 scene is not the healthiest and that it might be necessary to sign on shady-looking teams, like Invasion eSports back in its time. But come on, there are limits to what you can accept in the name of getting a team. I mean, I'm sure no one in that team had an actual contract.
As for your job example, well if I was offered a job to the local pizzeria, did some research and found out that the guy was nearly bankrupt, I certainly would find it strange that an almost bankrupt guy wants to hire people.
