Today we are announcing the departure of our friend Kim "Heart" Min Hyuk. Heart has been with our gaming family for a year and has contributed immensely to our StarCraft 2 efforts.

We wish him the very best and thank him for his hard work!

[...]

Moving into 2013 we are evaluating our StarCraft 2 plans and investment. It is our goal to remain a supporter of the game while continuing to expand our multi-gaming presence. Stay tuned for updates and thank you for your support.

I guess Ax makes sense since he's living with em :o?

Kinda sucks that coL is parting with their best player in 2012, who got multiple top four finishes at MLGs and made Code S Ro16... Are they giving up on SC2 for good, or are they gonna reload on the big free agents?

Anyway my favorite Heart game ~_~

Hmm, is complexity downsizing their sc2 roster for a reason? Ganzi and now this? I wonder if results had anything to do with him being let go.

I'm sad Complexity is not that involve in SC2.
They are a huge part ofg esport as a whole, but they don't seem too interested in us.

Good luck to Heart, I hope he can join Axiom.

I don't think results is an issue for heart if I had to guess since he's living with axiom and they're getting a 4th member he decided to join axiom.

With the loss of Ganzi, Heart and Goswser, CoL is becoming pretty irrelevant... sad to see.

Purely NA team now which makes them just about irrelevant internationally, hopefully they find more success in other games as the multigaming organization they are.

Complexity has been slowly trimming away a good portion of their top players. They still have a few players and their academy, but are lacking the power that they had with Heart, Ganzi, and even Gowser.

So Complexity's big four Korean signings of last year of Heart, Ganzi, Killer and Nada are all gone.

I guess it's time for a new slew of Korean free agents.

so many players have left coL lately. how long before they join quantic? all the doom talk seems to have had a very negative effect on some investors. esports fans shot themselves in the foot

they had a pretty big roster for a while there, they had to downsize eventually.
That said, I liked coLheart guess Axheart sounds cool too....

Complexity has to figure out what they want to do with SC2. They acquired Root gaming but lost most of the key players now. They tried for Stephano but had issues and thus the transfer never occurred. They got Naniwa but let him go over conflicting goals. Then Complexity got four Koreans, all of which have now left the team. Their two most notable players now are QXC and maybe Sasquatch.

Best of luck to Heart though.

Well, obviously Ganzi and Heart could not perform well enough to keep up with the rest of the team, rofl.

wow...coL should be one of the richest organisations in North America, and they pretty much have none that can do anything on an international scale, now that all their Koreans are gone, Goswser has gone to Millenium and Sasquatch will be inactive. I hope they can sign some new players, otherwise they're pretty much dead in the water as far as SC2 goes. Hopefully they can pick up at least the ex-Quantic Americans (State, Illusion and Hawk).
