In a move that has shocked the Team Fortress 2 community and the wider esports world, WeMadeFux have decided to cease operations
Forget England’s 4-1 drubbing at the hands of the Germans, this is the story that will be all over the back pages come Monday morning; the meteoric rise of TF2’s favourite faux-Korean superstars has fizzled out with barely a whimper to be heard.
How the mighty have fallen! It has been only three weeks since they exploded on to Cadred’s May Top Ten, entering straight in at Number 6 with a bullet on the back of some impressive form. So where did it all go wrong?
Sources within the Fux House have pointed to problems with roster activity and a widespread lack of motivation. Never content with hearsay and conjecture, we went to great lengths to track down the official story. Most were reluctant to speak out on the matter due to contractual obligations and the fear of litigation, but eventually the following statement was released.
Statement from WeMadeFux
"It just didn’t seem fair to our opponents. The officials have been piling up and the chances of us fielding a team let alone a well rehearsed team were looking slim, with Nigel working overtime at the bookies due to the world cup and Josh suffering from a bad case of brokenheadsetitis. We just figured if we fold now we could still be replaced in Division 1 without too much hassle. We are all still booked for i40 and fully intend to go huge. Thanks to all our fans, we couldn’t have come this far without you."
Well there you have it folks, the end of an era, but don’t be surprised to see these household names back on the wagon very soon; you just can’t keep a good man down.
WeMadeFux were:
Nigel "Stealthy" Mason
Paul "Evil" Doyle
Tom "light" Steele
Murrough "Predz" O’Brien
Josh "Joske" Walton
Neil "TopGear" Partridge
