Nice, gratz to both parties !

They are a family.

Please, I just want to know why ?

I don't want to be spoilsport, but this is very bad.
VortiX and LucifroN have been refusing the offer of many team (Team Liquid and EG are probably two of them). By staying with Karont3, they maintained an image of Spanish Armada refusing to play for money. They were the two captains of a small team and they were considered as they two best foreigners.
But now, this pick just ruined everything.

The Spanish Armada and Karont3 e-sport will never be the same again...

Because if you want to play full time, you need to eat, so you need better contracts and they outgrew Karont3. It happens all the time, Thorzain and Praetoriani (which died after he left), Snute and Gamer's League...

Players deserve the best contracts possible and this is a competitive market, just like any other sport.



Karont3 is far from being in lack of money, on the contrary.
For the number of Sc2 players they have, they got an incredible amount of sponsors and money (Ozone, Versus Gamers, Twitch...) + all the money VortiX & LucifroN win in online tournaments...
If you add the fact that the team manager, Ryo, is the third Duran brother, this is just toally incomprehensible.

Really, I think this trade is a bad idea.

Can only speculate, but his WCS group is on june 4th; I would assume , that he is hiding builds for this.

Number of sponsorship <> amount of money they get from sponsorships. And K3 is not only a Sc2 team, they've got rosters for other games.

If K3 doesn't allow them to go to all the tournaments they want to participate in, it's the right move for them.

woah, that's big. can't help but wonder about Karont3, especially considering their brother is the manager, but mouz is gonna be sick city now. funny thing is they are instantly pretty much the best two players on a team that was already very strong (well, Mana might be stronger than Vortix).

Damn! not sure If this is good or bad in the long term sure Mouz is stronger then ever but on the other hand Karont3 goes back into obscurity. I would like to see more strong teams instead of every good player being packed into the aldready huge powerhouse teams.

Mind my weak translation.

Karont3 Razor¨

There must be only a few things more painful for a club than say goodbye to two figures so representative for the team, both of them have carried the banner and colours of Karont3 e-Sports Club beyond what i migh have dreamed, literally around the world. It's going to take time to associate the name Moreno Durán to a club which isn't Karont3.

But it is time to put the feet on the ground, karont3 is a young club with a spectacular tour in a short lapse of time, but humble, withouth the resources of the "great" right now. The weight of the organization is sustained by two persons with the support of their sponsors Ozone and Versus Gamers, players, contributors, and their fanbase.

Both, Pedro and Juan betted from the beginning for this project...
... but the opportunities do not always come, and being realistic the things are not that well to turn its back to some offers.

from the club we mourn their departure, but we can only feel happy for them, and wish them the best of lucks to LucifroN and VortiX, Karont3 e-Sports Club will forever have its doors open to "the brothers" that had gave us so many joys...



There is not much to tell, short story, the offer was too good to pass, no hard feelings. Best hopes for them.

The four interviews are pretty much about it being a bittersweet feeling for all of them, thanks to team mates and hoping the best of luck to all of them.
