The Drop Bears are looking to start an SC2 division and we thought what better place to start than the home of SEA's best SC2 talent.

Who are we?

The Drop Bears are an Australian based eSports organisation committed to the growth of eSports not only locally, but globally. We currently have divisions in FIFA 13 and SSFIV / UMvC3.

We will be focusing on single player titles initially to ensure that growth is stable and proof of concept and ROI is easier to track and monitor.

Our Goals

The growth of eSports locally and globally through the acquisition of top gaming talent from around Australia and the World. By providing solid proof of concept and tangible return on investment we aim to bring more attention to eSports through associations with World leading brands.

Hmm not sure how I feel about the censorship. Thread wasn't going anywhere good though.

Sounds like an awesome opportunity, I hope it works out for someone!

Quick Comments

	ToRSpookToR:	not censorship i 100% agree my comments were out of line and should be taken down i may have suggested it even idk i for
	ToRMaverick:	I didnt think this community delete posts either?
	BaKaiNu:	Not my intention to censor. I hardly ever delete posts, but it was required this time to keep the thread running smooth.
	mGGDaedalus:	censorship /=/ saving thread from derailment

[Psykerpath]

Zealo, I was hoping to use this as a way of also introducing myself to the community. Being from an FPS background, knowledge of the inner workings of the SC2 scene is something I don't have (hence my inability to approach players individually).

I'd just like to apologise for any detriment my tweet may have caused the community, it was not my intention to cause any issues with the SC2 community. A rather silly tweet made in the heat of the moment and I'm sorry for its negative impact.

[syfChadMann]

OP is great. Trust is not - Why is everyone jumping in to make life hard for this guy? He wants to invest in your scene. Let him. There are numerous teams that don't have any of this support - but everyone believes them to be legit parts of our community... Even if Drop Bears can't deliver on the promises, which I believe they can - they are still promoting out scene.

Have spoken to him about my suggestions for this team - gl to everyone that applies!!

It's cool man, good luck with recruiting. Props for soldiering on. Did you pay for Toxy to travel? Any pics of your guys in uniform?

syfChadMann:

afaik, team is new, Jersey's should be out soon..

[Psykerpath]

Yep, Toxy will be flown to AvT LAN in January to start 2013 off with a bang (just sorting out the last details with Sami Shanley from AvT regarding entry fees and prize money).

Currently we haven't got jerseys. I was contacted by the CEO of www.gamingjerseys.com via LinkedIn who has expressed interest in supplying the team with jerseys.

EDIT: We have a design penned and ready to go =D
