Few things really matter anymore with the rapid spread of desperation to cash in on SC2(/survive as a player/team).
Most teams made out of passion of the game and ambition have disappeared long ago.
Axiom stood alone as one of these teams for long stretches of time, Axiom mattered in a way few other teams have in the history of SC2. Axiom represented something beautiful and pure and their GSTL win represents their strength as a team.

personally I found the article slightly sycophantic and opportunistic, I would rather leave a bit of time and get some insight from people who were truly connected to the team and could produce something more heartfelt. In my opinion this feels a bit rushed out.

I can't claim to have been a big Axiom fan, but if any team in the scene was worthy of respect, this one certainly was. In particular, respect for the sheer dedication it took to form the squad and keep it rolling, and the thoughtfulness in picking up the overlooked Koreans and nurturing them, and the ambition to do something so unprecedented - western run Korea-based team of Koreans. One of the legacies of Axiom for me, then, is that had it never existed in the first place, all these talented players would have probably slipped through the cracks without much respect or fanfare. Basically, Axiom filled a giant hole in the scene that most people didn't even realize was there.

Great article Stuchiu, and goodbye Axiom. I'll always remember watching Crank stream prior to that MLG.

Man, this is really sad to see. Axiom was such a fun team to watch, and they really did seem more like a collection of friends than anything else. Axiom Hwaiting!

I come back to StarCraft, and all I see is Axiom disbanding, and a match-fixing scandal. Guess tomorrow's a brand new day. Good luck TB, and Axiom's players, hopefully you guys will continue to do well, wherever you go.

Great team! Ryung and Crank are so cool. Many people forgot that Ryung actually was one of the best TvT's for 2012, but yes, unfortunately never got a championship title. Reminds for SuperNova I guess.
And Crank is the heart of SlayerS and Axiom. We'll never forget him. Axiom was the true real legacy, the spirit of SlayerS. They were really on the top of the world during the last GSTL, nobody could stop them!
