Nani and nightend were both und players in war3 and both toss in sc2 ^_^. From watching Naniwa's GSL run and how much he has been flip flopping on teams I don't think he feels he fits in any where or he probably would have stayed on one of his past teams instead of leaving everyone | ||

I don't think we need to fear that any big and old multi-game-team will disband because of it's SC2 division... Korea is not the sacred land of esports.. | ||

I think it's sad, cuz fnatic is a great team with a lot of greatness in it's history, wich most ppl in sc2 wouldn't know about, and I'd like to see nani in that kind of a team. Anyway, hope everything works out for fnatic, definitly one of my fav teams! | ||

I don't think we need to fear that any big and old multi-game-team will disband because of it's SC2 division... The only thing that's confirmed is that they're moving out of that place. And a house like they had really doesn't make a lot of sense in their current situation. There's several soccer teams out there who can tell you why "well then just get more players" isn't always the best of options either. Not to mention it not being as simple as "just put players in Korea and they'll start owning" anymore. As for them leaving Korea not boding well for SC2, I think you may be overestimating their current relevance a bit, but if anything that's probably something they'll be wanting to focus on, from whichever geographical base. Fact is, we don't know any of their current plans. It could well be they are pulling out of SC2, which seems like something you'd tell your players but ok. That's just one scenario though. They could get another place, work with another team, shift priorities to acquiring other players or playing in different markets, whatever.. we don't know. What we do know is that many'll pick the most drama option in their responses however and that's just been proven again, so well done there at least. | ||
