if you want ze big moneyz play sc2 dota or whatever , tf2 is all about sound people playing together and having fun
Quoted from schocky
most of the top teams will not visit the LAN (together as a team), if the cash prize is too low. thats fact.
Again this is literally only applicable to Epsilon. Infused are going, and essentially those are the only two teams that could hope to be funded to ANY international event at this point. Any other team only needs the incentive of the attendance of other teams, as they have no org to care about the cash, and no real hope of winning it anyway.
Though just throwing it out there, but if Epsilon won’t send you I don’t see why we can’t do something similar to how the yanks play it and fundraise that shit. Would be a massive shame otherwiset (though if you’re arrogant enough to not even try to self-fund it before hand that’s a different matter…).
Note: Don’t mean anything by that last bit, but just saying.

but i guess for wltrs isnt easy to come … for infused its easy.
Out of interest, how come its easier for cookye than wltrs?
I’m not saying you should be able to afford it off your own backs, I’m just saying that it’s stupid to take the approach that just because the org doesn’t pay it means you don’t go. Hence why I propose the fundraising approach iff the individual players can’t afford it since Epsilon are the stand out “must have” team since Infused are already covered. I don’t see it being hard to achieve at all considering all of your players, bar wltrs, live in countries that directly neighbour (either by land or sea, apart from france but belgium’s so shmall I pretend it’s not there) the netherlands.

To be fair, the lower div teams are already partly bankrolling the higher teams through the competition’s prize money.
Well, when I said “like NA does it” because in NA I believe their fundraisers have had stipulations wherein some of the prize money goes back into the community if a community funded team wins something.

Yeah that makes more sense, because i’ll be fucked if im giving Randa any money just so he can buy more Hollister T-shirts.
