Multiyears deal :O
That's surprising, I think most people expected Polt to have his last year in Starcraft.
He's also still due for his military service I'm pretty sure. I don't know Polt's citizenship status in the U.S. - but does he have to do military service if he's living overseas? What if he just stays in the U.S. until he's 27 or older? Either way, great to see one of the bestest personalities in the game getting some sponsorship. I think he still is, unless he doesn't have any plan to return to KR ever again. From what I know, avoiding military service = treason, unless you have legit reason, such as handicapped, mentally unstable, or such
I know Violet said after he got his athlete visa that his ultimate goal was US citizenship. Polt might be going for the same.

I think this is a recent decision. I have been requesting Polt to free lance for us in future tournament(rule allows teamless players), and it is not rejected for a reason that he is not going to be teamless.

EnVyUs was a Call Of Duty team at the beginning. Don't know what they achieved on that game. Early 2015, they picked the LDLC CS:GO lineup, which got consistently around top 4 at big events throughout 2015. Slumping in June, they swapped players and got in the finals of the next Major (CS:GO biggest tournaments, only 3-4 a year), and won the Major after. So that's been a pretty successful CS:GO team, around top 4 during 2015.
Then, they also got viOlet for a year or so now for SC2.

i doubt any other major organizations will be diving into sc2, it just isn't a sound business idea.. stephano is currently leading the starcraft viewer count with a whooping 400 viewers... how many pages do i have to travel down to find a 400 viewer league of legends or hearthstone stream? this game isn't dead, but it also isn't growing.
400 is the highest? What time did you check the stream for SC2? Pretty sure Nathanias can get 1K+ easily and Polt much more

According to Liquipedia, EnVyUs has won 8 premier events in CS:GO during 2015-2016. Dreamhack Cluj-Napoca being their most prestigious win. They got 2nd place at ESL One, losing to Fnatic but ended up beating Fnatic in a best of 5 a month later, 3:2. At Dreamhack they beat Fnatic and beat Na-Vi twice. So yea 2015 was a good year for EnVyUs in CS:GO

Congrats Polt.
Excited for the awesome games in Polt's style that this partnership will bring.

While him joining the same team as Violet isn't the most surprising its still great to hear. I wonder if they're negotiating with other NA teamless stars Hm, Scarlett wants to join a KeSPA team and Neeb is with Ting now. I don't think there are more teamless players of the caliber that Envy expects. Overall it's super cool to see Envy invest more into sc2 and with Ting joining the NA scene looks healthier for sure now.
Scarlet really wants to join a kespa team? The Dream *_*

all great that Polt has a new team, but EnvyUs is known for not holding promises and some players from other games have left the team since they were not paid their salary...
