I do not want to play the party pooper here (I even was one of the first people who posted in that thread) but TF2 had its chance at the ESL (even at major tournaments such as the ESL Major Series) and blew it. The section eventually got closed because of inactivity (possibly caused by ESL Wire, which caused problems for many TF2 players).
I doubt this would change, if the section was reopened. Without a TF2 loving sponsor, the game will not receive any prizes except for ESL Premium and there would be next to no reason for anyone to play TF2 in the ESL but "to support the game" (and this will not be worth it for most, as shown in the past).

No!

bumpin dis

CanFo is spot on. ESL won't do anything of note without a sponsor willing to invest big $$$.
