Actually if you read the OP, Oz wanted to be involved with more foreign events. Something FXO clearly doesn't want to do.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

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!)

I think they will recover, tree's in the GSL, tear is a very promising player who's won the first week of EWM and hell even thebest is doing well he's won 2 ESV weeklies which includes a BO5 win over thestc.


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.


iirc Tear all-killed Prime (every big name but MKP) in a KSL quite recently. He's pretty beast

Can't see why FXO can't afford that though, they're pretty well off afaik.

Well, this is surprising.

Fnatic's looking strong though, good luck to both parties!

I loved FXO because they had a top player from each race. Oz Gumiho and Lennock But now, the only have 2 and lost my favorite player. I hope fanatic can pick up another top Zerg, so the I will love the team too. Currently I just like OZ, aLive and ToD, Moon, NightEnd, and rain are cool too.

Lets hope that aLive and Oz become like HerO and Tajea and improve instead of declining like other Koreans who join foreign teams (ahem JYP, Rain, Puma, Nada, etc).
I am really hoping that their management is as good as Liquid's.

Well grats to Fnatic, I hope Oz does well in foreign tourneys, he was always one of my favorite toss players and still is. Getting to see him attend foreign tourneys is good for exposure at least.

Didnt see this coming. I though Oz was made for FXO. Anyways this is good for Fnatic and for their future GSTL! Hwaiting!

It's a pretty easy guess when you read the twitter.



Oh what the hell, Fnatic did it again? I hope they stop this, they had luck with TSL being in controversy already, so nobody cared how they got aLive, but now...we'll see.


Typical ^^

Anyway, time for Tear to step it up.

So Fnatic has Tod and Oz, maybe the best foreign and korean protosses. Such a sick lineup they ahve.

A fantastic player -- excellent pickup. Fnatic making some choice moves.

Fnatic looking strong, great pickup imo, one of the best Ps in the world easily. Their protoss lineup is solid now, ToD/NightEnd/Oz. Nice!!!

Fnatic is looking good, didn't see this one at all.

(err, I'd argue Naniwa is better than ToD. Maybe Huk too. There's a handful of pretty good foreign Toss out there, and Tod isn't at the top of any of my lists. Also, Parting, Squirtle are better than Oz imo, and if you average out MC'ds streakiness, he's still around Oz's level)

Now if only they would get Sen back... I love him, but he needs to start playing against better opponents, because beating up on the poor TeSL isn't helping him improve that much. :/

Tod's nowhere near best foreign protoss I'd say - Huk and Nani at least are probably better. Heck, I reckon White-ra might be better than tod.

From my viewer's perspective, I like the move because I'll hopefully get to see more of Oz. I hope it benefits him too.. Really dunno about FXO though.

I would put ST.Parting above OZ as best korean toss, and Naniwa is far superior to Tod.
Great addition to Fnatic though, they really are creating one hell of a lineup.
