Me neither

Congratz to both parties! Although I also didnt know about that team. As this seems normal the pick up already seemed to pay off for them :D

Nice to see an increasing number of organisations investing in SC, but still, this isn't going to feel like a team until they pick up another 4 or 5 players

Amon Havers – Managing Director of Asterion:

“The moment I shaked hands with Kevin after signing the contracts I couldn’t be more proud. For Asterion this is the biggest step we have taken thus far. We are determined to grow even bigger in the Starcraft scene by adding more talent to our roster in the near future.”

Exciting news all around, good luck to Asterion & Harstem.

Investing in Sc2?? :D:D:D

Well he can hope when he gets paid what they promise, i think sc2 is dead when even a good player in Europe goes into a random team.

Yeah, but I feel good about this since it seems to be a homegrown team and he met them in person.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

He got scammed in the past with Invasion so it is understandable that fans are a bit skeptical when he joined an unknown/new team. But they look nice and legit so I would give them the benefit of the doubt.

Congratulations and good luck to both parties.

As Harstem puts it on reddit:
You guys shouldn't be worried this time around. I made sure to do my homework and they have some really strong financial backing.

Optimism, go! Though I'm not a fan of G2A.
