Damn, what a disappointment, I really was looking forward to some Quantic players making a splash on the scene. Wish the best for the ex-Quantic members, and they find teams soon. | ||

All the attention goes to TL, EG and the Korean players' teams who win the events. | ||

They were willing to make an investment into a scene which could give good returns later on. However SC2 has more or less stalled, so companies are moving on to bigger and better things. Big teams like Liquid and EG will always be fine, but plenty of the smaller teams/players/tournament are going to end up dying off. I would hardly count Quantic as a small team. They are as old as Liquid, although they started from being a BF3 team. They field players in multiple games so it's not only about SC2 too. | ||

Also sucks for theSTC, to finally have gotten on a foreigner team to have it disband so quickly... Finally, I hope Mark Ferraz is doing ok, as head of Quantic Gaming. Hopefully he'll still be a part of Climbing the Ladder on ChanmanV's show, but... well, I'm not sure. This news sucks, man. | ||

well he was on the mouz wc3 team for a long time. I don't know how well mouz is doing financially though. I expected them to get new players ever since Thorzain left and the only new player is protosser, who isn't a top player by any means. | ||
