None of these players have accomplished anything, and when it comes to it, I've lost faith in their abilities to be one of SC2's greats. Most (all but top 3) I've never heard of. I think I remember moonglade from WC3 and he was nothing too special. QXC, you've played some of the most entertaining games I've seen and you're the one they should blame for blue flame hellions. I defy you to find a Zerg 6 months ago who didn't hate properly used helions, and ~2.5x damage (?!?! i still can't believe blizz chose to have such an upgrade) on your drones and lings, but thanked god they came along sooo much less wtf. But you knew. Still, you haven't performed in your major tournaments and I think you might not have that quality. Many other pro-athletes share this syndrome. Lebron James, yo. Sheth - your intro to Zerg post was what got me into understanding the Zerg engine. I'm in the lower master league, and I've gotten there on the Zerg fundamentals learned reading your guide. But like, you sign up for tournaments and don't come (I heard in an MLG cast or something, correct me if I'm wrong) and I think you're just really skilled but don't give a shit - Carmelo Anthony. You're never gonna get your shit together enough to win anything big: so much wasted talent. I'd bet 3 figures on many pro gamers. I wouldn't on you guys. Who thought that + Show Spoiler + SlayerS miserable GSTL result. It's all about creating a great training environment and the whole team will be better. | ||

This was not a poaching don't listen to the vocal minority, most of us know you're doing a great job for the players, the team, and the community. besides, it was pretty obvious what qxc's intentions were. he so does love to scan the islands. | ||

You're never gonna get your shit together enough to win anything big: so much wasted talent.. Holy Crap lol As far as I understand it, FXO is a reasonably new team, after seeing the improvements in Sheth's play its pretty safe to assume that they have a very good practice environment, something that these relative unknowns will thrive in. + Show Spoiler + I'm not sure if you know of a team called SlayerS, but they are full of relative unknowns too, but with the right tutelage and practice they overcame IM with some of the best SC2 games ive seen, with the game this young you cant really judge players based on popularity I for one am eager to see how this choice will affect QXC as a player, and where he will take FXO as a team. QXC fighting! | ||

As they're professional esports athletes, having both received money through winning tournaments, and I, as a dedicated patron to esports along with everyone on this site who matters, I'm allowed to judge their games however I want. It's the same principle that overrules every pro sports league, and why it's allowed for them to be paid so much. | ||

Phay, you are entirely entitled to your opinion... But you should check out moonglade, perhaps after a few weeks of watching him play you will change your tune. Sheth is always going to be baller, and QXC is good as well. Slog is awesome, filthy is always improving, tgun, anthony and Ice are in development, in 3 months time I do not see you having the same opinion  I stand by my players most of all, and not just 'financially'. | ||

Wait, how was their first GSTL miserable? They were one game away from making the round of four. In such a small and competitive tournament I fail to see how that's miserable. I hope qxc's happy, ROOTqxc is way more catchy anyway! Root just seems like so much more of a legitimate home-grown team of players working together to improve and not one of these international teams whose players don't even practice with each other because they're spread all over the world. I think qxc will be fine, and I'm sure this was a good move for him because he surely can't afford to keep paying for his own plane ticket all over the world. | ||

I love FXOmOOnGLaDe. Being from Australia, he is my only option as far as being patriotic goes. FXO also put together amazing tourneys that are always good to watch, however I feel for ROOT. They have the same ideas as FXO (cultivate good players into GREAT players) but they don't have the same funds. Its sad that money dictates The State of the Game (of life.) Heres hoping that FXO offered Kevin a ticket to Korea, should he be accepted into the GomTV house. We've all seen what Korea has done to mOOnGLaDe in terms of helping out his play. Looking for confirmation - As QXC was accepted into NASL under the tag "ROOT." With their emphasis on team play (you must be on a team to play in NASL) as well as their "MAX 5 players per team) rule. Did this potentially cost a ROOT player a seat in the NASL? If so, VERY BM, as I'm sure this would have been in the works before the announcement of NASL lists. | ||

but qxc wants to go to Korea and fxo is willing to extend their hand to him. if you are true Kevin lennon's fans, you should stop saying all this bs about loyalty. its not like he took 1000$ from root and quit straight away to another team after that. he has also not said a single bad thing about root at all and they are probAbly still friends. root has their own plans now with fenix etc living with drewbie and catz. qxc has chosen a different path. let's support him. as for the guy a few posts above qq-ing and crictising moonglade, suck a banana. he owns you any day . | ||
