herocraft is not viable imo because having a "clanless" or "mercenary" team will mean 1 legitimate team is axed. a merc team has no sponsors and its different from what we are trying to accomplish, getting sponsored teams / players air time and keeping their sponsors happy - giving them more reason to sponsor other players or increase their budget. Or getting other strong teams like SPR attention so they can get a good sponsor - all of which will help develop the esports scene in SEA by allowing players to commit more and take their game to the next level because of the support they are getting.

that is why "mercenaries" was allowed, moonglade,tgun = more viewers and the teams / esports scene has a higher chance to develop.

you've got to be joking
