People calling for Illusion, on the other hand, have me a little baffled. He was decent, but far from old quantic's best player or even the best Terran on old Quantic (that would go to TheSTC, followed by Apocalypse, and then theognis and Illusion can fight over being third best Terran on old-quantic). But really...thought experiment: add Illusion to new-Quantic, then pretend you're the coach and choosing who to field in team leagues. Do you field Illusion? | ||

As a LagTV fan, kudos to MaximusBlack for finding his place yet again. Looking forward to the bouse come out of the Academy. Quantic is looking better than ever, this somewhat settles my longstanding concerns with their management / income / stability / growth opportunities. Hopefully we get to see some CS:GO success out of them... and I've my doubts that the CoD team will ever pay for itself, not due to lack of skill or talent but due to lack of a scene. Just keep up the community relations and we'll all look forward to what comes of this merger. | ||

1 Don't depend fully on one sponsor. 2 Don't over-inflate your roster with too many players. Welcome back Quantic. | ||

Another lesson: Don't live beyond your means. That Quantic gaming house must've been a money sink that generated no real benefits. Why did they establish one? To keep up with the Joneses? Ultimately, this is really a matter of (mis)management. | ||

Illusion was/is one of the Top 5 NA players, for sure. Is he the greatest foreigner in the world? No. But he IS one of the better foreign Terrans, and (imo) the best NA Terran hands-down. | ||

You should be banned from TL until you pass elementary school. This isn't even funny. South America's above Central America? Maybe that can be your first clue. EDIT: On topic, I'm glad to see a lot of these players- and Quantic- back | ||

Based on playing with, against, and observing almost every single player on this team. Tournament results only go to support this sentiment.
