H3CZ and Arcitys explain why esports team houses don\u2019t work Instagram: h3czChicago Huntsmen CEO Hector \u2018H3CZ\u2019 Rodriguez and star Call of Duty player Alec \u2018Arcitys\u2019 Sanderson have explained why esports team houses don\u2019t work in their episode of H3CZ\u2019s \u2018Eavesdrop\u2019 podcast. Team houses were long viewed as a luxury, highly-desired commodity in the esports industry, seen as the height of team cohesion and an organization\u2019s success. H3CZ himself has a lot of experience with team houses, having had multiple over the years to host his players in all different titles. Now though, he sees the error of his ways and has spoken with Arcitys about why he no longer sees them as a good investment. Asking about Arcitys\u2019 brother, Florida Mutineers\u2019 Preston \u2018Prestinni\u2019 Sanderson, H3CZ wanted to know if they had a team house or space to use. Arcitys explained that they have apartments and a facility they have to attend for practice \u2013 something he\u2019s not a fan of. Read More: H3CZ is done answering questions about OpTic – \u201cI understand moving to the same state,\u201d he started. \u201cI could even live in the same apartments as a team, but I don\u2019t want to go to practice in the same facility every single day with the same team.\u201d H3CZ agreed with the 2019 world champion, and said that \u201csometimes it\u2019s cool to have a space where people can go and do that,\u201d but added that it\u2019s more from a content standpoint than competitive. Arcitys went on to reference the times he would spend in Columbus, Ohio with Prestinni and James \u2018Clayster\u2019 Eubanks, who he teamed with for three years. He said that during those couple of weeks every month or so, they would end up just wanting to spend time by themselves instead of constantly being around each other, with H3CZ stating that the time spent together at events (when you don\u2019t have to see each other every day) makes the tournament better. Team facilities like the one in Florida are becoming more common for large-scale organizations, such as those who have made the investment to participate in franchised leagues, and recently 100 Thieves opened the biggest esports facility in the US. As yet, Chicago Huntsmen have not required their players to move into apartments or to attend a team facility together, with the group spread out across the country in various states and cities. Despite this, team facilities and team houses are still commonplace in the industry, with more teams opening their quarters on a regular basis. Though some players might not like it, in the future, a team office of some sort might just become the norm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
