Highlights of the week

1. tgun parts ways with FXO.

Last Tuesday our very own tgun announced that he and FXO E-sports were parting ways. A sad but mutual decision according to both parties.

This is what FXO had to say;

Hi guys,

I am sad to announce the departure of Bradley "tgun" Seymour from the FXO team.
Bradley has requested to be set free to persue other ventures teams etc and we have willingly accepted.

Brad is a great friend, a great player, and a great person. Its sad to see him go. We wish him all the best on his journey to stardom.

We wish you many a game played with a knife in your mouth (ref: Korean stream when we were in Korea).

After all, knife in mouth = more skill!

Good luck brother!

While tgun responded with some very kind words;

It's with a heavy heart that I've decided to part ways with FXO.

While the team itself was amazing, and I had many magnificent experiences with all of the people involved in FXO, the teams goals are now not in line with my current goals, as I'm not able to fully dedicate myself to living in Korea. It's hard to leave a team that you've lived with; I see all the members as family, and this has been an extremely hard decision for myself.

I'd like to make sure that everyone reading this understands that this was done under good terms; I leave behind nothing but happiness and respect, thankful for all that FXO has done to help me advance in SC2, and would like to explain that this was a decision that I struggled to come to terms with.

I wish FXO the best of luck, and will continue to cheer for them in the GSL. (:

Obviously a Team & Player with mountains of mutual respect for each other. I wish FXO all the best, and tgun happiness and mouth knives in whatever he does. Good Luck.
