Aren't these just 2 IDs for the same person? Or am I wrong here?

And while I agree with you, I still think it solves a lot of problems fOu had. So overall it's a good thing.

the owner of 1a2a3a[fOu] and TerrOr[fOu] is the same person thats correct, but on iccup (best way to play them without lag) terror was shared if I remember correctly.

I just see this as an attempt for FXO to actually make a name for themselves, and is evident of their lack of results in korea

Oh well, congrats it's just a subliminal message that their foreigner team is bad


Idiot, I don't think this is what it means at all. 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.



They only do that because FXOBoss has so much money to blow away and it makes a good name for FXO as a sponsor, please have insight into this a little bit more, thankyou.


FXO made a move to get better, obviously this was just some subliminal face slap to their players. Herp Derp! I guess every acquisition a team makes from here on out is a subliminal message their current players are bad.

You're a cornucopia of insightful knowledge.


They didn't acquire FOU because they thought the current FXO was bad. They walked into Korea with the confidence they can eventually succeed. For any team to become the best in that environment they need to be able to not just ladder with the Koreans but also have continuous face time to get the mental training needed. FXO decided to go the extra mile by acquiring another team to enforce that level of interaction.

The more exposure the original FXO team has to the Korean mindset of how to play the faster they'll improve than without that exposure. This also allows players to have more leeway in participating in foreign tournaments like Sheth without being undermanned in their roster for GSTL.

Don't they already have tons of players? With a few FXO players potentially moving in the fOu house should be way overcrowded as it is.

As a former Broodwar player I find it really sad to see the team [fOu] go and play under another tag. It certainly is good for FXO and eSports all over the world, but a bit of tradition should be kept :-(! I will miss fOu... I can still remember playing against 1a2a3a[fOu] and TerrOr[fOu].

as far as i understand fou was a clan in broodwar an became a team in sc2. They can still play under the clan tag fou its just their team tag will be FXO.

Its like how there are members from prime from other teams (junwi). In korea it is very common for players to play under a clan that is different from their team. Im guessing fou will just go back to being a clan, exactly how it was in broodwar.

Looks interesting. Maybe this is the beginning of a foreign/korean linkage between major foreign and korean teams?


I dunno about that. I think its pretty clear that FXO is the wealthiest foreign sc2 team, which has allowed them to do this. I'm not sure if the other teams would have the funding for something like this.

I think ogs/teamliquid style parterships would be more likely.

Exiting times!
