Well at least they are not going to get rid of DotA
|
Dota is more popular than WC3. Anyone who thinks otherwise is clearly foreign to the scene.
There are far greater number of Dota games being played at any one time than WC3 games. Keep in mind, Dota games have 10 people.
There have been numerous cases where people thought Dota was the actual game of WC3 and standard format.

i really liked watching MYM do stuff ;( this sucks...
|
... MYM drops SC and WC3 but keep shitty DotA and WoW.
Might as well change your name from MYM to CGS v2.0 and pick up a DoA female and male lineup you bunch of clueless managers
DotA has no prize money whatsoever, who cares if 10 million people would play it, i've never seen a dota tourney with over 5k prize money.
As for WoW ... sure it has 200 billion suscribers ... but its the most boring spectator esport EVER. You lose a player and it's gg ... no comeback possible, no excitement.
Fuck MYM.

DoTA certainly has more players,but I wouldn't be suprised if more people followed the pro war3 scene than the pro dota scene. DoTA is a very casual game and even many hardcore DoTA players couldn't care less about pro dota.
That being said the only reason to keep paying the best war3 players would be to keep them under contract for SC2, but I really don't think MYM will have a problem recruiting a team from scratch for SC2 either. Probably a good choice to save the money for now.

Where did you get that they have a WoW team? ^^ It´s been ages that their WoW squad got released. If one is clueless, it´s you...

i dunno, warcraft 3 definitely gives it a run for its money. and wow actually has fighting unlike tpcraft 3.

wow has 'fighting'.
If they removed the universal cooldown maybe the pvp wouldn't suck such dick.

Rumor was denied, cant take him in in february because his contract with MYM ends in february.. but obviously he would play wc3 for WeMade Fox
|
White.Ra said that they have some propositions. SC-team want to stay together. Everything will be decided soon.
I don't think that this is so big deal, many teams want to get any of these great players to their roster. So guys won't stay unemployed.

I can't imagine any team they could go to would be able to support them financially like MYM did.

Still better than nothing, ain't it? It's not like they play BW for anything else than the money, so it would seem (prove me wrong that if they don't get a contract, they'd continue playing on a serious level!)

I think you're overestimating what the MYM.sc team received.

MYM had picked up Cursed as their WOW team. It didn't work out and in March of 2008, they joined SK Gaming. And now SK just picked up Council of Mages, a Korean team, who won WWI Paris I believe and have another American team as well their European team. It was on the major eSport sites (SK, MYM, and GotFrag) so what sites are you actually following?

But for today it's better to have something than nothing. If MYM can't support them so i think nobody can. Moment of rethinking has come. Guys want to keep their team-spirit, but only time will show.
Anyway i'm sure nobody will stay alone, any of them is too important for Starcraft and i hope nobody will retire because of lack of money coming from gaming.
