Chances of ESEA existing next season?

0 Frags +

Looks pretty shitty for ESEA to be anywhere near its current form right now.

Invite especially looks really rough with as many as 6 (or more EVL seems sketchy too) dead teams.

  • Ronin
  • Froyo Black
  • -bird noises-
  • Sals Canal
  • Aeonic
  • Sinful Gaming

It's likely that the people on those teams that still want to play could reform into 2 or 3 more rosters but needing to move up 4 IM teams would make for one of the least interesting and lowest skilled seasons of invite ever. Also, that would make the season tradition of scrambling for 16 IM teams even worse.

I don't know what could come out of this thread, maybe if people start realizing now that it's a problem it could increase the chances of the game not dying (in NA) for next season.

Edit: Yes I get that there was a thread posted confirming TF2 in the next season of ESEA, that doesn't mean there will be IM or even Invite

I know for a fact that Sals Canal is staying together (imDagger confirmed it in his stream).

Where/ when did it get confirmed that ERRRR, Sin6, and FRO.BLK are dying?

TsarbucksI know for a fact that Sals Canal is staying together (imDagger confirmed it in his stream).

And there's 2 IM teams at minimum (probably).

Where/ when did it get confirmed that ERRRR, Sin6, and FRO.BLK are dying?

I really have no idea why Dagger's team would stay together when they've played 4v6 since June/ who he would even play with, I find it weird they would try to play invite again next season, maybe he meant IM? the rest is just from talking to people on those teams or people who talk to people on those teams.

Sal left due to IRL troubles and the other person left. I don't recall who they're picking up, but they're staying together. And they are doing ESEA-I.

With this, we have:

-froyotech
-EVL (?)
-Champ GG 8k
-Sals Canal
-Possible team from S22 players
-Possible team from S22 players 2
-saam's team (whatever it's called this week)
-Good Players ft. Skeez
-Wild Card

With the death of RONIN, 20b, and FRO.BLK, we can already determine froyotech is winning Invite. If the second best team is EVL or even, 8k, there will be an unfortunate drop in quality of play.

There's a lot of playoff teams who really want to play IM next season, if they bump up 16 again I think there will be enough teams. The division however probably won't be very good.

To clarify one of the aforementioned lists to the best of my ability, these should be the following rosters active for next season:

• froyotech
• RONIN gg
• -bird noises-
• ChampGG 8K
• Luca Goers
• Sal's Canal
• IM Team 1
• IM Team 2
• Brand New Team/IM Team 3/Team consisting of the remains of FROYO BLK and/or EVL (cafe)

That makes nine teams with the assumption that move-ups from IM would step up to the plate and not crumble before the season even starts. The last bullet-point is pure speculation with some of the other bullet-points being some speculation based off what people are saying now, before playoffs are over and i58 even rolls around. Things can change. Maybe some teams will merge instead of folding due to losing players, or maybe they won't lose players at all because another team that would pick-up said players folds itself. Nobody knows.

The -bird noises- roster should stay alive for next season, though we will definitely have a different line-up and most likely a different name as well.
