JuSt disbands - leaves WC3L

As mentioned before, JuSt has faced some serious problems lately. Unable to find a sponsor, a handful of their best players decided to leave the team. After a crushing 0-5 defeat against MYM, JuSt has now declared that they will drop out of this season's WC3L.



The Bulgarian based team JuSt Players was on the rise when they signed a cooperation deal with World Elite, renaming the team to World Elite Europe. Since then the team attracted many skilled players, such as LiiLD.C, Sonkie and KnOfF to complement their Bulgarian talents.

But as a result of World Elite losing their sponsorship from IGE, they severed the link to their European squad. World Elite Europe were left sponsorless and were once again known as JuSt Players. With a place in the WC3L, many thought that it was just a mather of time before the team received a new sponsorship, but that was not the case.

After trying hard for some time to keep the team together while searching for a sponsor, it was inevitable that the players of the team started to look elsewhere. First LiiLD.C left after being offered a spot in 4K and shortly after KnOfF also decided to leave the team. The team decided tried to keep it together until the end of the season, but with another player leaving - DieSel - things didn't look good at all.

The day after the team's 0-5 loss to MeetYourMakers, it was announced on the WC3L website that the team would no longer be participating. This means that the twelvth season of the WC3L will be played with only eleven teams and all JuSt's previous and future matches are deleted.

Statement from JuSt's team manager Tedet:
Today we decided to put an end to our bad period and follow our first intentions to disband the team at last. When we announced this for the first time, some of our players wanted to reconsider and I listened to them. Additionally there was the fact that we were in the middle of the season. Though after a few devastating losses and a lot of problems in WPL we decided that keeping the team "half-alive" is just a waste of time. After some talks in the team and with the admins the final decision is made and we are leaving all the leagues we are currently still participating in.
