    Nah most export teams are owned by people who are passionate about it. It’s a digital medium so why limit it by some small region? Overwatch league was opposite if everything good about eaports - the international connection of a global game people are passionate about. Team Liquid (in any game) has more character than all overwatch city teams combined.

      Maybe I’m wrong. And it does seem like the manager is probably passionate about it. But please correct me if I’m wrong since I don’t know much about team liquid. I read the ownership section here and it just screams corporate to me.

        Nah man you’re confusing semantics with the vibe. Obviously it e-sport teams have to be businesses but theres more passion and history in one team than whole overwatch league combined. That could never happen with city teams, well we’ve never seen it.

          Fair enough, but also team liquid has seemingly been around wayyyy longer than any of the city based teams. Of course there isn’t as much passion and history. They’ve barely been given a chance. I mean I’m not that invested in esports in general, and I’m totally willing to believe city based teams aren’t the way. But it’s something I was more familiar with and got me, someone with 0 interest in reports to care a little when I saw my city had a team. Also, not a man btw
