| Very interesting considering Boss called out Hwanni for trying to poach him at the Winter Arena. GL anyways. |

If this continues, and foreign teams don't take the time to scout upcoming talent, the foreign scene will stagnate quickly.
Fnatic is living and practicing in Korea. They're competing in the hardest team league in the world. They just picked up one of the best five Protosses in the entire world. People need to stop looking at "foreign" and "Korean" teams and just look at who is on the team. Oz makes Fnatic a way, way better team than if they picked up three upcoming talents they could trot out there in the GSTL.
So? Good for them I suppose? That is totally beyond and irrelevant to the point that I'm making. Buying tip-top talent is good but for how long? Amateur players need to be scouted and untapped potential needs to be jumped on. The Korean teams seem to get it, as they are constantly getting young and new players, who then pop out and go beast-mode in the GSTL. There is currently no foreigner team doing that, I believe.
People are. However, investing in upcoming talent isn't very popular. Just read through the thread about Vile being absorbed by Quantic. So many people saying it's a waste of money when they could have spent that cash on buying a good Korean. It doesn't matter what you do, people hate everything. |

| Hmm, this must be what Fxoboss was talking about a while back, about translators trying to poach his players, after MLG Winter Arena? Hwanni works for Fnatic, right? |

| Damn shame IMO, FXOz was one of the best ID's in sc2. Can't think of another player with only one letter for his ID. He was also by far the best toss on FXO, now they only have Choya..... Come to think of it, I wouldn't be surprised if Choya's disastrous actions in the GSTL was the main cause for Oz leaving the team. |

Correction: Going from worse players to better players. While I share your sadness regarding foreigners being less notable, its hard to have sympathy when they are worse players. |

| Awesome, they are going to be fantastic in the GSTL, can't wait for him to live and train in the fnatic house, going to be amazing. |

Please don't. The last thing we need right now is yet another player transfer exploding into ridiculous speculation controversy. Boss said he wanted foreign events, and couldn't provide them. Fnatic will. So he moved. That's it. |

LOL Tod is far more inferior than NightEnd, Mana, Naniwa, SaSe, HuK, BlinG.
im not sure tod to be inferior than bling
He is though. Bling has made respectable placements at multiple tournaments. Tod has literally zero results in Sc2 of any note. Tod isn't even in the top 30 Protoss players.
Rofl. Are you really new to SC2 (as in the last two months) or are you just trolling?
30 Protoss players who are better than Tod. 1. MC 2. Parting 3. Oz 4. Inca 5. Puzzle 6. Genius 7. Naniwa 8. Hero 9. JYP 10. Seed 11. Creator 12. Killer 13. Alicia 14. Huk 15. Avenge 16. Ace 17. Choya 18. Vines 19. HasuObs 20. Socke 21. Mana 22. Grubby 23. White Ra 24. San 25. Sase 26. Sage 27. Tails 28. Feast 29. Tassadar 30. Bling.
Somehow you missed Squirtle who is like 52-4 in the past two months.
I thought I'd put him, guess not.
The list wasn't meant to be exhaustive or in order. I could probably scrape together another 10 Protoss players better than Tod.

No
Except they all have considerably better results than Tod.

| I'm glad Fnatic has another strong player, without Oz they would've been the easy win for other teams in GSTL. Now they're pretty good. |

| This is pretty big for Fnatic and will surely benefit them when they play in GSTL. Also excited to see Oz play in more events. |
