@Zlasher
That's pretty funny. I'm glad, though. This nothing but help the growth of e-sports and all parties involved. Great move! |

Short summary:
fOU asks FXO to sponsor their team. FXO agrees. FXO is for foreign tournaments and FXOKorea is for GSL/GSTL
FXO will provide money to FXOKorea monthly, and will also provide flight/hotel fees for foreign tournaments, and they will also be able to practice in the malaysia practice house. fOU will be wearing FXO's uniform starting Week 6 of GSTL, and depending on record they will even be able to get a salary.

little bit more detailed summary
Choya fOu notified GOM TV today that fOu merges with FXOpen.
He said "I asked FXO about sponsering our team and they counter offered with merge, so I accepted." Official name is FXOKorea. FXO will continue their work overseas(foreign scene) and FXOKorea will play in GSL, GSTL.
Choya maintains his playing coach status and will lead FXOKorea. FXO pays management expenses monthly and support foreign competition. FXOKorea can practice in team house in Malaysia at off season.
FXOKorea will wear FXO uniform starting 6th week of GSTL. Those who can not play in GSL can live in the team house in Malaysia and participate online tournament. Malaysia's lagging condition is much better than Korea when playing in EU or NA server.
Choya is happy that players can practice in better environment and also happy that this makes that he can focus more on 'playing' than 'coach'. They'll work hard to achieve better results. |

Exciting set of developments! There are some very good Zerg and Terran players in FOu that can do a skill-transfer to the FXO players. I just hope that FXO's investment into the SC2 scene remains financially sustainable in the long term, but I trust FXOBoss and his financial/strategical advisers.  |

| And here I thought FXOBoss was a trader, not a banker, haha. But since it was a friendly acquisition, it's a step forward for both. Glad that FXO is committing so much to esports. |

I guess the clan will continue to be name fOu, while the team will be FXO.
The same as NEX and ZENEX. |

| Seems like FXO needed this to continue the Korean training of some of it's players. The Koreans needed a big sponsor to continue to recruit and get better. Seems mutually beneficial to me. |

I accidentally hit BoSs once while he was here, and 1,000 Won fell on the ground. I think it grows on him, kind of like on trees. |

| Does this mean Oz will go back to fOu/FXOKorea? Seems rather pointless for him to be separated from his old fOu teammates. |

The article makes it sound like the players from FXO who want to play in Korea will play with fOu under FXOKorea (I prefer FXO.fOu or FXOu, but I guess if you're a company investing this much into a team you want your moneys worth).
Does this mean that FXO players are going to have the opportunity to live and train with fOu? |
