The team will be focusing solely on team in the NPPL.


I will try and answer and questions you guys have.

As much as I like XSV, they aren't getting amazing results and a sponsor wants a team that gets a load of positive exposure (not that XSV's is negative)

The tournament corporations are trying to make the sport grow faster than the teams can. With bigger, flashier more expensive events. Sports grow in their own time, not when they decide.
