Legit lineup in terms of doing well in WCS EU. Definitely some Code S level Europeans in there.

This is what I love about WCS, it's gives teams like Navi a reason to invest and players like this a reason to play the game again.

He's talking about "Natus Vincere", not the abbreviation.

since NAVI has such amazing success and name recognition in Dota2.. you would think they would try to bring that to sc2. Sorry but these players are not going to bring them anything...also, no terran on the team? not great idea for practice.


Since when Strelok have not been terran?

Couldn't they have just picked up some higher level koreans without teams? seems more effective...

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


Even funnier that 2 of the players were part of the orignal roster as well.

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

That's a bit of an underwhelming introduction lol They're easily the most successful Western team in Dota 2, and also the most successful CS1.6 team in the last couple of years before it's demise.

Na'Vi always tend to stick to Ukraine or countries close to home, despite all the money they have, they keep to their national 'character' or 'identity', like most European organisations.

From what I understand FXO is still involved, at the very least as a sponsor/stakeholder in the team. That said, I don't think they'll need a Korean house due to WCS, and also since Na'Vi have a pretty sick office/team house in Ukraine.

Whats the point of making a team without at least 1 marketable stand out player? Every team needs a face.FXO NA and EU were basically charity projects anyways. I hardly even knew babyknight used to be in FXO let alone the other players. What are they actually paying these players salary for?

Like finding "at least 1 marketable stand out player" is an easy task. The roster is not locked-up, they might still add players. And who knows, maybe BK has a WCS-eu seed ?

No thats the hardest part. Anyone can just get few grandmaster players together if they have the money but to actually get players that you will make a return on is the hard part.
