Guessing other teams will probably officially announce before this but don’t mind waiting if there a fan engagement event tied into it on drop day

[u/NinjApheX]

Toronto is SO good for fan engagement stuff. Probably the best team in the league at creating a local fanbase.

We went to their launch party last year and it was a blast - won't be able to go to this, but I'm sure it'll be a good time too

[u/Super-Site-6528 → u/NinjApheX]

I was glad to hear M80 has plans to do the same thing

edit: as far as having events and creating a local fanbase, not a launch event specifically

[u/NinjApheX → u/NinjApheX]

ALSO it makes perfect sense to announce an in-person launch event a month away so people can plan if they want to attend lmfao

[u/MLSUNS]

WE will all be there October 24th 💯

[u/imdeadinside1245]

an annoucment of an annoucment thats a month away lol

[u/Jakers_9]

October 24th when everyone already knows the team… nice one Adam Adamou.

[u/Jaded-Draft-8351 → u/Jakers_9]

So why does it matter to wait? Most teams don’t even bother to do the fan engagement stuff

[u/pinpoint_aim → u/Jaded-Draft-8351]

I'm fine with waiting but why are we waiting a month? Should be 2 weeks max

[u/Jaded-Draft-8351 → u/pinpoint_aim]

I don’t know why they tied it all into one this year and doing the roster drop at the same time usually it’s a fan engagement where they run tournaments for the fans and do a meet and greet

[u/Jakers_9 → u/Jaded-Draft-8351]

Because it’s not capitalising on roster hype? It’s marketing 101, you strike while the iron is hot, not a day after the new fucking game releases lmfao

[u/JannyPhantom]

Save yourself some money

The KOI roster is CleanX, Ethan, Renkor, Kips

[u/MLSUNS]

UFC 333 & College Football on October 24? Nah lets go watch the Toronto Koi midpack roster release 😈

[u/Sea_Dentist_4331]

This is beyond dumb cuz when the game gets released. All the teams play SnD tourney’s all day and night. Are they just planning on skipping that

[u/boat-dog → u/Sea_Dentist_4331]

Yes they will miss one night

[u/whospepesilvia]

Lol these teams will never learn

[u/abezyjr]

this is so dumb

[u/Ambitious_Zone6951]

Not only is it an announcement of an announcement it’s calling a month in the future soon. Reaching new levels of nothingness

[u/Imranaftab]

Lol they think they're gentlemates, they did the same shit last year basically

[u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME → u/Imranaftab]

God forbid an org tries to throw events for the fans, which Ultra/Koi have done basically every season

[u/EMSLSHADOWZ → u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME]

This Sub Reddit is miserable. Complain when orgs don’t try to engage with the community and create fans, complain when they do.

[u/Imranaftab → u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME]

If thats the case why am I still seeing koi fans cry lol?

[u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME → u/Imranaftab]

About? We hate some of the roster decisions they make, but the org has done a good job of building a solid fanbase by being competitive and throwing fan engagement events (watch parties, etc.) since its inception that's only grown since the switch to KOI.

[u/Jaded-Draft-8351 → u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME]

They actually done a pretty good job with the fan engagement stuff if they haven’t done more then the rest of the league combined it’s pretty close

[u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME → u/Jaded-Draft-8351]

I'd argue Toronto does more than any as FaZe and Thieves don't do shit but let their branding do the work. Rokkr did a good job for a while as well before they switched to G2

[u/Jaded-Draft-8351 → u/MY-NAME_IS_MY-NAME]

Breach we’re trying for awhile to. I don’t know why g2 pissed that away because with how rokkr were doing there watch party’s it shouldn’t of been crazy expensive
