Yeah taking a look back at Boss' tweets, it's plausible that Oz was talking with Hwanni back at MLG Winter hrmmm.

That is Choya I believe.


Choya is the coach, not sure if he's the captain. Oz was fOu's captain back before he joined FXO and before fOu got bought by FXO.

Great pickup for Fnatic! Big fan of Oz and hope he has as good or even better a time with Fnatic than he had with FXO. Oz fighting!

I'm going to miss the GSL introductions for FXO z.

Fnatic getting a really good lineup by now. Going to be neat during GSTL, but I don't think they can compete at the top quite yet.

Just looked at FXO's roster, there's no crown over any of the player's names indicating that he was the captain, so im guessing Oz was the team captain?

Oz left fOu like a few months before fOu got bought out, Lucky was their captain in the meantime. I'm pretty sure on this.

This leaves a bit of a hole in their roster's Protoss department (FXO). I am curious if they will be scouting for another high level protoss as their current best P is choya. Not that choya is bad.. but you know he has other things to be doing than practicing himself ..

Didn't Boss angrily tweet about someone trying to poach an FXO player at an MLG and it turned out to be Hwanni trying to poach Oz?


The Reddit post that discusses this is here:

http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/qk81i/translators_soliciting_fxo_players/

In a nutshell, it looks Fxoboss mentioned an unnamed "translator" convinced Oz to join Fnatic at MLG.

I suppose Hwanni fits the bill since he works for Fnatic.

A few interesting quotes from Fxoboss in that thread in Reddit:

"I'm going to add one more touch to this drama. The issue at hand is not what, its who. Managers and teams talk to players all the time, its not a secret. But someone who you don't suspect to do it, does it, right under your nose, and because of language you can't understand. Its very dirty, and doesn't allow for dual input."


"You are right. It was an empty threat. Although, making it extremely expensive for someone to challenge it in court would be one approach. However, this person was entrusted to translate for an event on behalf of the event. He was there soliciting for another team. This is a breach of trust (yes I know players don't sign a trust act). I have no issue at all with team members, or coaches, managers or owners talking to my players (I would like to know first, but I would never say no). However, when its someone doing it when you don't think thats something they will do. It becomes a despicable act. My threat was just hasty words of anger. Especially since as a team owner, we are the ones who pay the money for the deals to be met, made or negotiated. Not having a chance to even negotiate due to language barrier/not knowing who is soliciting and when, makes it difficult for any owner to do business. I am sure that victor will agree. For instance, when Liquid picked up sheth, victor spoke to me about it and it was a clean transaction. I would assume that you would give your team the same sort of heads up if you planned on leaving liquid and I am sure that the other side of the transaction would contact liquid just as quickly.

As I have stated clearly, its not what was done, its who was doing it. If he is going to go to events to solicit players, fine, but don't be getting paid to translate for players at the same time."

Fnatic have a very strong roster now for the GSTL.

Legitimately good players to head up their T and P lines, and a couple of promising zergs (I believe in you ByuL!)

TheBest is doing so well lately, it's cool to see him and Choya making a comeback =)

Tear is great, definitely think he can be GSL calibre.
