Fnatic will be sponsoring three of their players, Chul Woo "Shy" Park, Hyo Sub "FoCuS" Eom and Min "MinHyuk" Hyuk Jo to live and train in China.The players will be located at the east coast of China in the city of He Fei with the aim to attend as many events including PGL, CEG, Road of the King, as well as doing tours in universities.
The team will share an apartment and live there for at least 3-6 months and attends events such as the RoTK which begins tomorrow as well as PGL and CEG.
It is an interesting turn of events as teams such as SK Gaming and Four Kings traveled to Korea in years gone by in order to pursue their pro gaming careers, but now we see Koreans moving to China in order to better themselves.
This is what Sam "Zr0" Mathews, CEO of Fnatic had to say:
We decided to give our guys an opportunity of a life time to live together and train to be the best they can be.. as well as making it easier for them to compete in the local tournaments.
We're very excited by this as well as our partnerships in china who made this a reality; CEA our media partners, and ESP our official club in CHINA."

This could be the what enables them to improve their weaker matchups to take them to that final step.
If only more teams would encourage this.
