Thank you very much to NEEDforSEAT and MIFcom but also to all the other partners who are always supporting us.
But also for partners like this there is a limit and they have to think about money and even if they love this event they can not invest that much money in a product where they dont have a return they need. You can do that once or twice but at some point it hurts.
All these partners wanna keep working with us and invest in us but they also have to see how they can invest in the market and where it makes sense.
What i wanna say is that we definitly SOMEHOW have a HomeStoryCup but having the same budgets of our sponsors we have right now will not happen and that means we most likely dont have the HomeStoryCup "that big" anymore.
This would / makes me very sad and i wanted to share this for you and i know this text is a HUGE WALL but i feel like i have to explain all of this to you.
We had a great support of our community to donate for a lot of koreans to pay them flights / Hotels which i am very greatfull for and was SO awesome but this is just a "kinda small cost" of what we overall have with a 25 - 30 man crew working on it, the location, food, shuttles, prizemoney, external people etc etc etc
If there is a way to keep doing it I WILL and even if i have some losses I will do it! I will try to find new sponsors but i try to be realistic - It is not that easy nowadays. I will not stop doing Starcraft and not stop to do a HomeStoryCup but we have to see how we can do it in the future.
I hope you can understand my situation.

hopefully not. But the earlier smaller HSC had their charm too. HSC is definitely not a SC2 tourney I want to miss though, so I hope all the best will happen.
. Juste make 12 players tourney, make 1v1/archon. I actually never really cared about whos gonna win the cup but more about which players are going to cast :D and how much fun I will have again! :D <3 take tv for all those incredible years. And I hope for more! If the spirit is intact people will keep watching :D
