No they don't shun him and Violet has referenced him in interviews for assisting with his play on a fairly regular basis (he does this for most of the members of Empire if I recall.) But I assume (<-- sorry mr. Bitter) that the house needed someone at the forefront who was moderately established but never really got the exposure he deserved. A successful work place is broken into different tiers of experience skill and knowledge and I'd assume this house would be no different.

At everyone complaining that they had exposure/were established already, really? Just being on a team doesn't really mean you're established or publicized as well as your skill sets "should" allow. I assume (sorry again Bitter) that Bitter took these players because he saw their potential and felt that with the house and not having to worry about anything that they could become more established, get the attention they deserve and become competitive players.

Final thing on this nerd rant would be that you people seem to forget, this is the first set of players they are cycling in. If you're going to do something on this scale you'd be foolish to take people you don't know much about or have never heard of. Bitter needed people with a strong work ethic that he knew would be able to get this project off without a hitch, he took people he knew and players that do have great potential and that makes it MUCH easier on him. You have to remember, he has to build a studio in this house, manage everything and make sure the players are doing what they're supposed to, while he works on top of that.


TLDR: He needed people that he knew WOULD do well given the opportunity, so that he could start the project and turn it into something that produces results for all future candidates.

Thanks for all your hard work Bitter and I look forward to seeing the content you and your boys produce.

**Also I'm not trying to put words in his mouth, assumptions are assumptions take them at face value with a grain of salt**

Edit: On topic fan of Beasty heard of Gix hadn't heard of the other two but the interviews were solid and I wish the best of luck for all people involved, can't wait to see what you can do. Though I wonder if/Hope that Beasty will continue to play in EU online cups, gives me stuff to watch at work

Beasty is a really really good player. But 20-30 games a day? Seems kinda low for a guy living in a teamhouse (i don't know what to call it).

I believe they're cycling every 3-6 months depending on their situations. He also said it is possible certain players are out, or stay longer than others. So, one spot for a player may open up before the next "batch" however, it sounded like they all get announced at the same time.
(ie: the interviews beasty said he was there for almost a month while deffex was there for 5 days)

Looking forward to seeing the next players selected though, this is such a good thing for the community and really deserves way more attention ><
