http://fnatic.com/news/10126/hwanni-leaves-fnatic.html

Unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to our Korean StarCraft II manager, Seong-Hwan "Hwanni" Kim.

Hwanni joined Fnatic alongside aLive on February 1st in 2012. He was in charge of the Fnatic Gaming House Korea, helped our team get into GSTL and perform rather well in Season 2, provided an immense amount of help to our players at MLGs and other events, hosted shows and represented Fnatic in the best way possible.

However due to recent changes he can no longer dedicate enough time to our team, and thus it was agreed that he will leave Fnatic. He will continue being involved in e-sports, providing consulting for MLG and team EG.



Statement by Hwanni:

I enjoyed working with Fnatic players and all the Management. I would like to thank all the people who supported me in Fnatic. I wish Fnatic to become an even better and successful team. Thanks to everyone. Fnatic Fighting!

I like this thread better, provides more information and the formatting is better. Thanks for the information. I hope this means that EG will pick up more koreans and such.

ToD said he was a somewhat of an incompetent manager somewhere in his reddit AMA, as he was rarely around the house :X

No Hwanni haven't you heard of the EG curse! Be careful my friend.

Interesting. Not to completely write that off, but seeing as how ToD is known for complaining about a lot of things- and the fact that Hwanni will apparently just be consulting with MLG and EG- hopefully there won't be problems with the new position.

Soon, the term "esports" will be changed to "EGSports"
Like Tinkerbelle, I leave behind a sparkly residue.

This really caught me off guard, when Khaldor tweeted it I thought he was trolling as they seem to have a close relationship. It should prove as some help to those EG members in Korea right now, I just hope aLive and Oz are able to improve their condition in the coming months, they've both really dropped off since joining Fnatic

I'm happy. Hwanni deserves the best. Good luck to both!

ToD literally bitches about everything, I wouldn't take what he says to heart.

Hwanni's coaching is now cursed, the only advice he can give now is worker rush.

I would like hear what Scoots has to say. Many people and myself wonder if there may be something behind this move.
