Through a deal facilitated by the support of two Google employees, pro-gaming team and media production company Quantic Gaming has acquired the majority of Team Vile’s StarCraft 2 roster, becoming one of the largest pro-gaming teams in the StarCraft 2 eSports scene.

The acquisition sees Quantic’s roster rise to 17 members, picking up the following Team Vile players and effectively saving a team that has been undergoing major management restructuring:

(T)Illusion
(P)State
(Z)Spanishiwa
(P)DdoRo
(T)HasHe
(Z)Hawk
(P)SyNc
(Z)ChAnCe
(T)Domorin
(Z)PsY


http://www.gamefront.com/entire-starcraft-2-esports-pro-team-saved-acquired-by-quantic/

Following management shake-ups in Vile Gaming, it appears the roster has moved with the current NA roster setup of Quantic Gaming. They will be financially backed by two Google employees named: Ian Gulliver and Stephen Gun, software engineers for Google.

The article goes on to interview the story of these engineers, their emotional and personal involvement with the Vile-now-Quantic roster and what lies ahead for both interested parties.

edit: to note: Vile Yong are not found on the list.

Well we had pretty much known that something was gonna happen to Vile...

I think QuanticIllusion is one of the coolest names in pro-gaming atm.

So for Destiny's salary they could afford a whole team?+ Show Spoiler +
Just Kidding, I'm not being serious


That's good for Quantic.

I hate to see Vile just.....vanish like that though.

This is terrible news. We can't quickly roll "QxGPsY" off our tongues as easily as "vilePsY".

I wonder if we'll see Illusion and State in Korea sometime soon as they seem to be the two top members of vile.
That which does not kill you has made a tactical error.

Nice !
I always thought the true US potential was in some of Vile players, I hope to see them at more event, and to get more support.
