skyrideWhile I can't comment on either, I can tell you this.
Wireplay has someone of the best, most helpful admins you will ever see in a game league. Those guys have run it religiously since the days of TFC and were one of the first to jump on the bandwagon when TF2 came out. For 6v6 they've always struggled because they've always had this weird second class syndrome where rather than competing with ETF2L on their own terms, they'd always aim to be a fun sideshow. For example 7v7, their 6v6 unlocks/maps, etc.
If they manage to find themselves a solid niche in EU highlander, I couldn't think of better candidates for the job.
I would love to see Wireplay grow as a HL league, their admins are some of the most helpful and polite admins I have ever interacted with.
