Honest question -- what "other options" is Desrow expecting without a single result? Felt like he was lucky to be on FXO.

In any event, good luck to both parties!

From what I understand no one on the FXO NA team is paid, so there's no real benefits to being on the team other then FXO being a huge name. The FXO NA team is also a seeder team for the FXO KR side of things from what I understand. Of course I could be completely wrong but this is what I've read from other pro's who left the FXO na squad.

How can it be a seeder team into FXO.KR? I doubt FXO.KR is going to recruit Americans. They were supposed to practice with each other but I'm not sure whether it's done. FXO.NA is like an academy for up and coming American talents.

Sorry to hear it didn't work out. I thought for sure you would of stayed with FXO for the rest of HOTS. Hope your other options pan out well. Best of luck Sir.

I'll go ahead and say that to my knowledge there is no significant interaction between NA and KR FXO. They've definitely got a couple good players; though they just recently lost their best ones. That said, I'm pretty sure Desrow made the right choice with a team leave this time around. Hes one of those d00ds that have been through so many different teams but 7 months is a pretty long time and I'm sure hes just focused on building his own brand name. To people who are not aware, that's worth a bit regardless of skill. Just look at casters.

Best of luck to him! ;D

I'm assuming he already received a better offer, makes no sense otherwise.

I did appreciate the fat joke by the way. If people insist on being fat they should be able to handle those. Oh, and you can keep the "some people can't help being fat" comments for yourselves, let's suppose I already read them and took note.


If you're to "insist" people keep their opinions to themselves on the matter of weight, why don't you do likewise and not say something as stupid as "if people insist on being fat?" (and you're quite literally projecting this on to Desrow).


wut?

Sidenote, found the fat joke funny and think a temp ban is really not needed.
Also, who would offer desrow a lot of money? I mean he gets 1k viewers or a bit more and will never place decently in a tourney ever again.

That was funny. People can't take a joke in the SC2 scene.

A joke like that only works in the right situation, this was not that.

Holy shit, so many a-holes in this community.

I look as anorexic as an African villager and I eat all the garbage I want. It's genetics folks.

This is a damn shame. If aspiring top NA gms like Desrow who are constantly improving can't keep a team, it says something. My guess is it was probably contract related. They probably wanted to bump down his salary.

Best of luck finding a new team man.

You know that that is actually only true for less than one in 10.000 people? Most like you have no idea how many calories you consume and burn. Genetics in almost all cases do not play a significant role at all in your body weight.


More probable is this


I also dig the way you criticise! African villigar... classic!

So according to you only 1 in 10 million people affected by genetics? Cool stats man. Must be some new ground breaking study. Mind sharing the link to that?

Fact of the matter is, most of the people throwing out the insults have no idea what it is like to seriously commit yourself to diet and exercise while being over weight. Committing yourself to the gym is easy. I bet not one of these naysayers have managed to follow a consistent diet for 3 months, never mind a life time. It's one of the hardest things you can be challenged with in life.

1 in 10,000,000? No idea where you got that number but I'll blow your mind with some statistics with the note: Holy shit I never knew me and that other guy were so special. And just fyi, what he was talking about has to do with how fast your metabolism works which, in fact,is largely based on genetics. I mean there is even a medical field called metabolic genetics. If that doesn't sound like the hyperbolic time chamber then I dunno what does.

Well than the world would be full of fat fucks. . . Ok, but even more so.
I am not saying that people are not affected by genetics you ignorant piece of s.... I am saying that diet makes like 80% of your body comp, exercise 19.5% and then 0.5% are genetics for almost all of us. In terms of relative weight.
I am sorry I did not spell it out to the last detail for you, I should have known you don't understand it otherwise... my bad!


Oh and fyi to not look like desrow you do not have to commit hardcore to a strict diet for the rest of your life, eating somewhat healthy in reasonable amounts and spending a half hour of your waking time doing some form of physical activity is way more than enough for that. But go ahead and make excuses for others for no reason at all.

Hah!



Edit: Also I had my numbers messed up, for endomorphs (people that tend to gain weight more easily) it is 1 in 10k not 1 in 10mill. Big fucking difference.... still none of you is one. AND STILL an endomorph can get rid of fat by living like a decent human being should.
Plus you can change your somatotype by changing your habits (GUESS WHAT: Exercise and diet).

So, what say you now captain "I defend those who can only suffer from defense"?

You just have the wrong image of desrow.

Everyone who has been in contact with him, every team and every teammember knows how the real desrow behaves.
Nothing more to add.

Lets see which one is his next team

edit: in regards to character, not to his weight.
