Honestly, TMO might be a zerg, but it's not neckbeard and that's its true strength.

It's got some players who've been around a while and it's got dedicated long-term members, no doubt, but it also has a large mass of people who essentially rotate in and out. This allows for breaks before burnout, and if burnout does occur it's not a particularly tragic thing. IB for many reasons seemed to burn out all at once, partially due to lack of new blood and unwillingness to integrate (re: teach, train, gear, etc) new blood as seen with their partnership with VD. It's one reason why I really can't forsee TMO falling apart in the near future. They may or may not be beaten (and it'll be an uphill battle) but I don't think they'll simply implode like IB did.
