I'm curious as per how this works for team leagues, I remember someone bringing up how FXO shouldn't be considered in the NA team pool for the EG Master's Cup and at the time I said that's silly because a number of their players are North American, now it's a little bit different. Does FXO plan on fielding their Korean players in non-GSTL clan wars and team leagues or does FXO have to be considered separate for those purposes(International, imbaFXO, Korea)? If that's the case, I would be pretty interested in seeing more Korean teams participating as well as this could open some doors in that regard. | ||

Without Oz introducing the two teams to each other and acting as a bridge, would the two teams have gotten along so well? Maybe, but also maybe not. This is definitely a win for all parties involved. | ||

FXO doesn't have many good players at all, seems worthless for the fOu players to become part of FXO. fOu gets more money, which allows them participate in more foreign events, along with possibly a salary if they do well. Additionally, they get more teammates from the original FXO team to practice against. The question is, why wouldn't they? | ||

That's great for them. Personally, I don't think they'll get much better practice with the original FXO team. Can't say no to more money and the opportunity to participate in foreign tournaments though. | ||

Imba is a *different* team that the company FXO sponsors. FXOpen E-sports & FXO Korea (fOu) are teams under FXO the company's control. | ||
