Woah great news. FXO is becoming the first truly global team ^^


What about Liquid? Germany(TLO), Sweden(Jinro), America(Tyler), Canada(HuK), Iraq(Haypro), don't remember Ret's country of origin though..

I don't think that disqualifies them as a global team because they don't have a Korean on board.

Haypro is swedish I think.

Great move from FXO I think. It should help them a lot ; especially if he does a bit of coaching too!


Haypro is a Swedish.

Gratz to FXO for having a good player and coach (hopefully!) joining the team.


Hayder Hussein?

I specifically remember reading/hearing he was born in Iraq and moved to sweden or if not that then his roots are from Iraq.

Wierd. Part of the charm of all "foreigner" teams is that well they are foreigner teams. I atleast support those teams because of the character stories of the majority of the players even if they aren't the best. The pick up of koreans let alone non-marque signings makes little sense to me.

Best of luck to FxO and Twilight though. Certainly has more potential than being just a coach.


Part of the term "foreigner team" is the fact they never managed to pick up a korean player. I at least support those teams that have both character stories and have the foresight of becoming truly competitive in a discipline that becomes more and more global by the day. The pick up of koreans is a natural move in order to benefit from both worlds.

Being named Hussein does not mean you are from Iraq (the middle name of the current US president for example). However, Haypro does have his country listed as "Iraq" on the TL forums:

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/profile.php?user=Liquid`HayprO

You should use this as evidence to support your claim, not his name.

You can check his TLPD's profile; it lists him as a Swedish. Having last name sound Arabic does not mean he has to come from the Middle East, as there were a lot of immigrations in the past.

I wonder how this is going to work out with the Koreans in foreign teams.
Nice pickup FXO.

It would be awesome if FXO encouraged them to learn English,by paying them lessons.Would be hugely beneficial for them if they are going to actively compete outside of Korea.

Well then you should write Ireland (Jinro) and Poland (Tyler) I think Hayder identifies as a Swede.

Great move, I thought that FXO needed a player with experience with coaching , and who knows how to train efficiently, and who can do it better than an ex bw player? And he is probably very good as well which will also help ^^.

As far as we know he left TSL of his own accord. He said that he wanted to participate in foreigner events, hence the discussion over which team might want to pick him up.

Is this the first time a native Korean joins a foreigner team in SC2?

It feels like the game is still so young, yet the ESPORTS part of it is being handled somewhat like BW.

I could not have predicted this much growth despite all the balance fixes that are still to come in multiplayer.

Next thing you know, players will be drafted into teams and sign contracts.
