Kind of like how every team is Team Razor? | ||

Team Razor is kind of like TEAM U.S.A. They are both everyone and no one at the same time, and you really only here about them when something good happens to a member of Team Razor. Team FXO is more like an Octupus of ESPORTS. Technically its one team, but for legal and physical reasons it is functionally split into seperate "arms" that connect to single point. In this regard, FXO gains the ability to lose an arm to fend off predators (drama, legal action, associations of a dubious nature, etc.) and then regrow it under new name. Also, if they are scared, they can shoot ink and escape into the murky depths. | ||

Did anyone else see that thread Strelok made, asking what's different about Korean Terrans and why they are so successful in the GSL? I think it would be awesome if he had more of an opportunity to learn the difference in person. | ||

This is really strange, kinda funny, and possibly bad for the new (old?), ex-imba (now ba?) team. | ||

I saw a lot of great stuff out of slivko (happyzerg) and if he spends any time with leenock hes going to wreck the eu scene like no one else. I'm talking 4 base to 2 base zvp levels of crazy, oh wait both of the extra 2 base's are gold base's. Slivko and HappyZerg are not the same person.... Slivko isn't even in FXO, hes a roxkis member and Happyzerg is called FXOSlavik. | ||

Please keep in mind I'm not a spokesperson here so this might not be 100% accurate: Okay so as it was tried to be explained in the OP: -the FXOpen you guys all associate with the Korean team, and the foreigner team was never fully associated with the guild of imbalance. -The imba.FXOpen partnership was instead done through the Russian branch of the company, and management separate from FXOBoSs and FXOUnstable. -There apparently have been issues... and now imba is splitting from the Russian FXOpen branch, but the top players are staying. -And this is where it gets confusing, because they have now re-labelled themselves "FXO" even though they are still not affiliated with the Korean team, and the few remaining foreigners we have on our side of FXOpen esports. -So there are now two teams calling themselves "FXO" who are completely separate entities... I am so confused right now, and I'm literally the only person from our side of FXOpen esports awake right now... great Raelcun is boss, this situation is confusing I understand it but its still dumb. | ||
