Hopefully we will see some good things from him in the future - he always matches to post good games, but i somehow always see him as the underdog haha

I'd like to welcome Strelok to imba.FXOpen. I look forward to the FXO boys being able to practice against the imba.fxopen boys soon! I heart strelok!!! Very muchly! So I approve of this decision 100%. To those who are unsure about who imba.fxopen is, there have been a few of their players in the FXOIS. Notably Lowely, who is a fantastic zerg player and a big up and comer. Strelok will compliment the team wholely. Team imbalance was sponsored by our Moscow office and their operations are a little different than the FXO team. For instance, they play a very little part in the event management of FXOpen e-Sports and are more focused on the team and gaming. I hope this move will help expand e-Sports in the ex-soviet nations. Regards FXOBoSs | ||

Look at Red Bull, who sponsor the main Red Bull Racing team (Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber) and also sponsor Scuderia Torro Rosso (Sebastien Buemi and Jaime Alguersuari) with two completely different teams, engines, designers etc. It's true that Torro Rosso was/is supposed to be the feeder team for Red Bull racing, but they are still completely independent of each other. Red Bull also sponsor a lot of up and coming racers in Karting and a number of other motor sports. In SC2 Razer sponsor both Team Liquid and Team Dignitas Edit and also Mousesports I see http://team.razerzone.com/index , which is similar to Honda and Yamaha sponsoring multiple teams in Moto GP. I see no reason why FXO sponsoring multiple teams should be a bad thing. Good luck to Strelok and everyone in team imba.fxo | ||

It is a different relationship, with FXO owning FXO esports and FXO Moscow sponsoring imba.FXO. Now, the much bigger question would be: When will other FXO divisions finally step up their game and aquire teams themselves? This would allow for the biggest world spanning in-house-league ever seen | ||

I'm just under the impression that there are plenty enough good and established teams for the amount of sc2 talent. In fact, I don't feel there's enough really great players to fill all the available high caliber (sponsored) teams. So what's the point??? =/ | ||
