How do starcraft 2 teams make money?

Alkro Sweden88 Posts December 17 2011 08:35 GMT #1 I realize there's a lot of money involved in starcraft 2 and tournaments have big advertisers that gets quite a lot of exposure. However, I rarely see the teams sponsors getting any attention, it's not like in any other sport where the sponsors brand are constantly seen when the players play the game. Here you only see the actual brands on the shirts for like 30 sec before and after a game. Do the teams get a % of all wins? Do they take the streaming revenues? I mean they play their plyers saluaries, trips etc.
