QXC just posted this on his twitter which is an attempt at masking "Goodbye FXO" using Korean character input.

[image loading]

Edit: To clarify, the Korean characters in his tweet, when entered into a keyboard, produce the following English letters:

G
O
O
D
B
Y
E

F
X

P
E
N

Edit #2: QXC has now officially transferred to Complexity, according to the article below:
ESFI World has confirmed that Kevin "qxc" Riley, the North American Terran StarCraft 2 player, has been transferred from FXOpen E-Sports to Complexity Gaming. FXO's general manager Joshua "BoSs" Dentrinos verified the news.

Could a mod please edit the thread title to reflect the article above?

Kinda sad seeing FXO being korean only. Great for koreans though as they have brought so many over to MLGs etc.

Well, that's pretty big.

I can only assume one of three things from this provided it's true

1. FXO dropped his contract due to his limited availability for LAN event attendance
2. He let his contract drop due to the potential to sign with a different team
3. He's just a busy college kid and couldn't afford to be a pro gamer just right now

No matter what this will turn out to be pretty big news if it's legit. Might want to make the OP a bit longer though so it stays open

I'd say the tweet before that kinda reinforces it.

EG_QXC... make it happen imo. This is just the tip of the iceberg. I remember Incontrol a few months ago mentioning how a lot of contracts were going to be up in the winter time. I imagine there'll be a lot of these types of threads.

FXO realized that it's just not financially viable to support non Korean players if they don't win. Sending players to LAN events to get top 32 at an MLG is a complete waste of money, no offense to any team ~~

I don't think FXO has to worry about anything money-wise >_>

I read Korean, and immediately noticed his tweet was just a jumble of incoherent characters. Figured the only reason would be to mask a hidden message.

Qxc is the most entertaining player other than Destiny. I hope he gets a good deal with a new team.

It doesn't matter if they're rich, just because you're rich doesn't mean you care less about losing money.

You don't make a billion dollars by wasting money.
