Meet Your Makers (MYM) was founded in 2000 and was considered one of the best e-sports - organizations in the world. MeetYourMakers was taken over by the Leipzig company FIO Systems AG and reopened at the end of the year. In the meantime, MeetYourMakers has been re-registered as MeetYourMakers GmbH, based in Bensheim. With this step, MeetYourMakers became an independent company.
history
In 2000, the Dane Mark Peter "Mercy" Fries founded the organization MeetYourMakers, which appeared in public for the first time in 2001. In 2002 the decision was made to turn MeetYourMakers into a professional organization.
In 2006 the organization MeetYourMakers was bought by investors. Together with the former owners, these investors founded Regroup eSports A / S , which was renamed ESNation A / S on July 16, 2008 . At the beginning of August 2006, MYM joined the G7 Teams association .
The Warcraft III division was considered the flagship of MeetYourMakers at the time. She achieved many high placements in various international leagues and tournaments, such as the ESL WC3L Series , the NGL ONE and the World Cyber Games . Since February 2006 the Korean professional player Jang "Moon" Jae-ho has been under contract with MeetYourMakers. He was considered the highest paid Warcraft III player in the world with an estimated $ 500,000 contract. At the beginning of 2008 the Dutchman Manuel “Grubby” Schenkhuizen also switched to MYM.
At the end of 2007, MeetYourMakers signed the reigning World Cyber Games champions from PGS Gaming after several failed attempts to gain a foothold in the Counter-Strike scene . The new team won the Electronic Sports World Cup in 2008 .
At the beginning of 2009, MYM dissolved the teams for Warcraft III and Starcraft.
On August 1, 2009, the Leipzig IT company FIO Systems AG bought MeetYourMakers, and a few weeks later the organization was reopened with new teams in Warcraft III, Counter-Strike and Warcraft III DotA.
On June 6, 2012, MeetYourMakers was sold by FIO Systems AG to a private investor and registered as a GmbH.
