I'm really looking forward to seeing FXO in the GSTL! Very exciting news. Good luck to all in the Code A qualifiers too.

Great stuff all around. It'll be nice to start seeing some of the foreign teams competing with the Korean teams and not just individuals. Great move on the part of FXO to take the lead and do it. I haven't seen FXO do anything but great stuff for the community since they've come around.
I'm especially excited to see how Sheth does over there. He's already pretty beastly and this is only going to help. Hopefully this is also the thing that brings QXC out of his slump. He's such an entertaining player it's a shame seeing his recent results.

Thanks FXO! Forget what any of the naysayers are saying. This is great for everyone in the starcraft community!

This will make the GSTL sooooo more exciting!!

IMO (gut feeling) FXO seems to be a really solid team compared to many others in the west. With solid I mean planning, training focus, stamina etc. Skill-wise they probably have to improve in order to make it further than the first round since the competition is sooo hard and FXO probaly wont have enough experience with the korean server/playstyle
SC2 will change my life!

Firstly, WOW.
How proud I am as an Australian, that this company is pushing all these amazing players (and a number of Aussies) into the mecca of SC2. It can only do them good, regardless of eventual scores.

Secondly, I feel there are a lot of fanbois out there upset that their favourite players teams couldn't find the money, or piece it together. Complaints of
"But, EG/Mouz/Dignitas are sooo much better" are irrelevent. This is the team that has the kahoonas to spend probably upwards of $25k to gain exposure, practice, and experience.

Really interested in their "new signing" too!
I've heard that Sen is running out of contract soon? Confirm/deny?
Really hope its not another member of ROOT. That'd be the cherry on top if KiWiKaKi wanted to give Korea another go, and for that reason move to FXO.


Note: Before you flame, yes, I am clearly simply speculating on little or no facts.
Play the games!

I think it's great, I don't know why people are being so negative.

Sure, the majority of the FXO team are unproven in such a large competitive environment as the GSL, but that's no reason to me negative about it. I don't necessarily expect FXO to go in and smash IM, TSL, oGs etc into the ground, but I don't see any reason why with a good training environment and a good work ethic the team can't get into competitive shape.

Looking forward to it.

Guys you are forgetting that the big benefit of going to Korea is the EXPERIENCE and TRAINING. doesn't matter if you don't win. if you keep playing TvT with MVP and MKP eventually you'll be damn good too.

Even if they lose matches, its about experience. Suddenly FXO sends people to go to MLG in 6 months time and they rip everyone a new one with their vastly improved mechanics and game sense learned from korea.
"What a terrible final. This is why BO3s are horrible. Seriously MKP vs Moon in a final and having it BO3 is like having Mila Kunis naked in your bed and all she'll give you is a HJ with her PJs on. Pffffffffffffffftt." -greatZERG

This thread has officially made my head hurt.

I am under the impression that the general community wants me to PAY for another team to go to Korea... Its not going to happen.

They also think that teams with 3 known members are going to compete in the GSTL... Again not going to happen. You need 8 members. 8 who have taken games of koreans and are capable of doing so.. I dont know many teams with that many members who have already played korean players regularly and consistently and understand the way the korean scene plays.

I am truly disappointed.

For those who are being encouraging, thaank you for being the bright light in the dark depths of teamliquid.


GL sir! I'm cheering for you. your team got an opportunity to be one of best team

edit: what will happen if Naniwa and Sase come to Gom house? there are already 12-13 people in Gom house.
You know what I'm talking about

Honestly I think there's more positive responses than negative. I updated the OP with some common misconceptions so perhaps some people will stop posting misinformation. Let me know if you want anything else added, or just have a mod do it (I'll be sleeping soon.)

Add in that everone except Sheth will be trying out in the code A qaulifiers (Sheth has other commitments at the time),

That question seems to pop up evert second page.

Wonderful courage to venture into something new. I am going to support FXO just for their courage to take the first step into becoming a much more accomplished team. Results come after hard work!!

Shame to those who even have negative things to say about this. Warm your hole up and keep looking at the small piece of sky visible in your hole.

Ignoring all concerns I have (this topic is full of captains obvious already) I wish FXO luck with GSTL and I hope they "farm up a lot of XP" in Korea xD.
