Pretty sure Heromarine sold his soul to mouz and can't leave them for another eternity or so.

one man's soul-selling is another man's mutually beneficial long-term partnership

but, I too, would have loved the BIG BROTHERS of Tobe and Gabe

Actually BIG and mousesports were founded/co-founded by the same person. Some of BIG's management used to play a huge role in mouz. Of course I would have been a potential pickup as well. However, because of the connection between the two teams, they wouldn't want to backstab mouz by signing me, no matter how my contract looks like. Also, I am more than satisfied with mouz, hence there isn't an immediate reason for me to leave. ShoWTimE is a great pickup and I am glad everything worked out with such a well established team like BIG.

That's very awesome to hear! The soul-selling part was tongue-in-cheek, obviously. Such long partnerships are just kind of rare in esports I feel like, but all the better that it's working so well.

I saw Showtime, in person, only once, 2016 in Leipzig.

He put up a good ... show.

BIG just have to sign PiG. I mean, the universe is literally going to stop if that doesn't happen. Who wouldn't want to see BIG PiG in tourneys to come??

With HeroMarine refusing to go over to BIG, the way is paved for a pro going by the ID "GaBe" to slot himself into the team. This will lead to complete pandemonium.

This team has existed for so long, in a decently-sized number of games, and only at this moment did I discover the name was an acronym.
