Why is it located in Kuala Lumpur?! I mean... that's so far away from any big tournament, isn't it? Why there?

I believe it was explained earlier that it was a property already owned by FXO that was mostly sitting unused. It puts them in a timezone fairly close to Korea, and probably with playable ping as well.

Yes, they could have gotten a Korean progaming condo, but they might very well end up paying more than the money saved on airlines for the higher housing costs in Seoul and end up with less living space to boot.

Not really relevant to this thread, but now that FXO has acquired fOu they will also have that property in Korea for any players actively participating in GSL.

Sorry for digging up quite an old thread but I just remembered that FXO had a teamhouse but I wasn't able to figure out what they use it for since their team mainly consists of korean players and those most definitely train and live in korea. So does anyone know if anyone is actually living at the house right now?

Leenock sure deserves it - after all he is just won the hardest tournament of the year- and he is still alive in Code S top 8!
