Someone needs to tell Blizzard OW isn't the worlds biggest esport that asking price is absurd
-
prices are obviously going up because demand is high. everybody doubted them when the price was $20million, but they managed to get 12 teams for season 1.

damn, there goes my chances of adding the Long Island Lightening to the league

With current numbers, 20m is a terrible deal why on earth would 60 sound good?

Rather burn 60mil than put it into the hands of blizzard

It has a bigger effect on the whole of esports, If the OW league fails and all the hundreds of millions burns investors it could damage future investment in other games
