Correct me if I'm wrong but when they aren't playing a tournament I would assume they're not getting paid.

If it referred to all games it would be just so that they didn't advertise other games for free, which is kinda understandable, but seeing as they mainly target similar games, it seems like it is excessive competitivity.

I just hope this excessive competitivity doesn't spread too much in the gaming industry.
