Natus Vincere (they have had success in Dota 2 and CS) has announced a new SC2 team!

http://navi-gaming.com/news_show.php?news_id=13407

Director of Natus Vincere Alexander "ZeroGravity" Kohanovsky had this to say:

Natus Vincere organization takes another step forward into development of its SC2-roster. FXOpen have established themselves very well in the community in the last couple of years. Together, we look into our future very optimistically and we are sure that our squad will gather some of the best players in the world.


Lineup:
Strelok
Babyknight
LoWely
HappyZerg
Minato
zOo (director)
Fairon (team manager)
Hireling (caster)

They've picked up a pretty solid lineup, interesting to see where this will go.

To clear up confusion, this is in fact a merger:

The FXO's manager, Vladimir "zOo" Ahlebinin also commented on this:
FXOpen and Natus Vincere are both well known organizations. That's why we were working on the concept of this merge really hard for the last six months, in order to improve the results on both sides. We are really glad to present you this union today!

Oh snap! I know or have heard of those players and this is great news. WCS is going to be a good time for everyone. Glad to see Babyknight land on an established team.

With this line up they have the potential. It will be interesting to see how well these players can represent their team.

Not the best players to start a team with tbh, but I guess they only want eastern European players and buying Empire is impossible.

Pretty interesting, fairly legit lineup considering what their last SC2 roster was.

Nice lineup. I vaguely remember them doing this at the beginning of WoL, and then disbanding shortly after; hopefeully history won't repeat itself (if I am recalling correctly)

Cool! Hopefully we'll see more content/coverage out of them, HappyZerg and BabyKnight are quite good.

Great org... although what they did at Copenhagen Games really made me think badly of them... this puts them back in the plus in my book.

I like that NaVi likes to stick to Russian/Ukranian roots, and help build that scene in CS, DotA and now StarCraft 2... exciting times for Eastern Europe!

It says ''together, we look to our future very optimistically'', so I guess they merged?
