Well, fnatic doesn't have anything on their web page yet.

But, if they were to buy the chinese team, they surly would not sell any of the players to MYM.

edit: Making my post more positive!

Good to see a new team, I wonder what the team's reasoning behind the decision is though. Maybe they just want to be a dominant e-sports team regardless of ability to produce income or w/e which is nice to see.

if this team actually competes at high levels in the foreign scene that would be great, top chinese players haven't done anything in the foreign scene since Bartar recruited a nearly exclusively chinese lineup before xLo died

I guess you haven't been paying attention to the PurE) team.

They're tearing shit up.

As people say, just chinese players.......

looks like it's the third "Loong,Pure" .. Alot of lag and little chance to show up on cws/leagues.

So fnatic must recruit some foreigners just to keep it up.

Finally a non korean team that is able to give MYM a match.

HAHAHA! There have been tons of teams that have been able to give MYM a good match. Excello earlier this year, ToT and a few others. If MYM would stop buying every valuable player out there then maybe they could have some competition. Looking back to pre-MYM starcraft there used to be so many good teams around, BOSS, ToT, uT, [Media], MgZ and so forth.

Didn't BOSS become Excello? I don't remember too well.
uT disbanded but I don't think any of their players went to mYm?
Media was created AFTER mYm had entered the scene I think?
MgZ might have had someone go to mYm or ToT.

I don't see how mym killed any of those teams o.o

it's not mym's fault, they are the only team able to pay salaries, it's really just unfortunate there aren't more teams able to pay proper salaries and compete for having the best players with them.

It's a shame excello died tho, they were so strong with JF/Nony/Yoon + whoever else in their lineup, and def. able to compete with mym at that time..

why do you people think pure) is able to do so well if they're such a laggers? c'mon.. not every chinese lags

if you were to spend some time and look at their matchlist in iccup you'd realise they've played plenty of progamers.

and mind you guys MYM did not kill any teams.. we should be glad that people are still interested in bw scene and don't mind paying the players. This is actually helping the game as it would increase the interest of non bw player to actually bother to look at the news of SC in the multigaming team website as well.

ash,because its the perfect excuse to blaim it on chinese ''lag'' since everyone is afraid to death to play them in cws.
As about mym,ofc they didn't kill any team,you should be referring to tot who the last months have recruited the half community.MyM adds a dose of professionalism which isn't bad at all.

i bet if a cw accured, fnatic would pay their players to go to a gaming centar to play on the finest connections they could afford.

they do so with the cs team because they mean business.

agreed coulthard, though they'll give you a different story (i.e. inactivity, which is also the case)

Think of it as getting a promotion.

To me its silly. I am all for good competition.

The point of the team is for the Chinese professional leagues, not for foreigner based competition.
