Thank you for all the great games, especially to Choya who managed to keep the team together while also being a competing player for a long time.
I wish all the fOu players the best of luck and hope they find new teams asap. (Leenock, Hurricane and Gumiho should find a team really really fast)

*cries* Every time I read one of these announcements, it hurts. I suppose it's to be expected, but I hope I'm not alone in feeling a bit sentimental. fOu has been around forever.
Beauty is not the goal of competitive sports, but high-level sports are a prime venue for the expression of human beauty. The relation is roughly that of courage to war.

man, this is snowballing a bit quicker than i thought. i figured the inevitable team closures would happen over a longer period but we've got a bunch in a row

always loved fOu and FXO. Favourite player Leenock leading the charge. Hope plenty of them can find new homes. Axiom could do with a new zerg huehuehue

How is it declining?
Originally there were 7 eSF teams + Slayers.
Now we have 8 Kespa teams + 2 eSF (ST and Claufzubu) + (maybe) team Epic + AxAcer.

Well I'd say we originally had 7 kespa teams + 8th team after the match fixing scandal. Due to BW still being played by Kespa for a bit we simply had two scene that could both kinda somewhat manage to support 7-8ish teams. Now that both of those scenes have merged it is obvious to anyone that, as either side that was previously able to support 7-8 teams, our scene couldn't magically support like 15+ korean teams. Now throw in that two (wongjin + stx) were taken from us due to their parent companies going bankrupt, I'd say we are doing pretty well atm.

I really don't get how people are surprised by this. We've been told for 2+ years by dozens of managers/coaches/casters/players that the Korean scene is hopelessly inflated and cannot support the current amount of teams and players. With the transfer of Kespa, the load was doubled almost overnight. Of course this was going to happen, and it will keep happening until the scene reaches equilibrium.

I see maybe 6-8 teams being a reasonable amount for SC2 in Korea, and until we get there this will keep happening. All we can hope for is that the younger guys stick around and don't ditch Sc2 for greener pastures. The older guys and teams retiring and disbanding respectively is a good thing, it's necessary if the scene is going to survive in Korea at all.

Looks like Azubu became the (Z)Sniper of team disbands.

But I feel so bad for fOu. I hope those players like Leenock, Gumi, and Seed find new teams because they deserve it
