Man, Root always seems to have so much turnover with pros. But they can always sign the biggest NA players...

I always thought Vibe was just another solid player, until I saw this:



Now he is my favorite Zerg. Really happy he found a team and will be cheering for him, and hope he continues to bathe in salty tears.

Love Root and everything they do for NA players. Good dudes


how much do they do for their players? chudat (root melee player) was doing donation drives to get to tournament, and they have so many sc2 players...


CatZ has said on many occasions that ROOT will stay primarily an SC2 team. It's very likely that the StarCraft 2 portion and it's players get much more support than any of the other parts of ROOT.


And honestly, he's sacrificing a lot to focus on SC2 more than other games. He recruited Ostkaka in Hearthstone, and Ostkaka went on to win Blizzcon after he'd left ROOT and moved to Navi. The second place finisher of that Blizzcon? Hotform, who was on ROOT at the time.

If he was willing to sacrifice the SC2 support and fully invest that in other games, ROOT would probably be a lot higher on the esports totem pole.

---

As for what they do for their players? Salaries and travel support (based on contracts I assume), having one of the few NA team houses available to live in, advertisement for streams and helping them gain traction and popularity in a scene? Is there something more they should be doing? ._.

Also, sick jerseys to wear.


Well yeah but those other games suck compared to SC2 so... #passion!! Haha.

I like most of it till the end. Vibe started getting rather nasty and toxic at the end. I avoid players like avilo/protech because I dont like lots of negativity, vibe appears to be different side of the same coin (tho maybe he was just particularly nasty in that video because he really hates avilo). Also, I knew he was going to win, but it really bugged me how he got lazy with his corrupts, sending in too many at once when he didnt need to, or how his infestors weren't even in the right spot 50% of the time near the end of the game. I would have also put build more spores/drones around the mining drone (in case avilo got crafty and tried to snipe the drones with some libs when countdown was low for a tie) and build a hatch at the middle right of the map (that had more minerals).

Anyway... Team ROOT looks interesting, has a decent amount of players.
