They've shown commitment to their non-KR team. Putting them in Korea, getting them first hand experience what it takes, setting up a team house. Now they have a KR team and that improves their talent pool, gives them access to top class practice partners and they are in on any of the meta game shifts right away. | ||

 I think this is great news for fOu as I really like a few of their players and hope to see more of them in the future. I just hope the foreigner part of the FXO team doesn't get left out too much. | ||

FXO gave him a signed jersey after winning one game. And they probably took the idea to heart while watching. No doubt they are going to cut people from the team. Sheth and QXC will probably get to stay though. Others will be cut loose. Loyalty means jack without results. | ||

I was never a big fan of fOu or FXO (except qxc duh), but they just got themselves a big fan!! Looking forward to see how much better the FXO abroard members become of this. | ||

They trade forex and gets all the wannabe traders who dont have much money, but times that by thousands and that means they have lots of cash to throw around | ||

But another part of it reeks of business and money first. Like foU obviously is a significantly more profitable team, in the sense of potential tournament success in korea and around the world. The FXO higher-ups will make more money with fOu in the mix, so was this for money, or was it really for e-sports? I fail to see why or how fxo buying fOu has a major impact for e-sports in a positive way? In general, if FXO never bought fOu, nothing negative would actually happen to e-sports. Likewise if FXO buys fOu, nothing significant happens for e-sports as whole, just all of a sudden. This acquisition only really effects the person who bought fOu, and the marketing of the FXO brand. But I guess time will tell. | ||
