Korean-based MVP Black makes a surprising roster change along with lately inactive sister team, MVP Sky.

MVP Black's Coach Kim Kwangbok shed light on some recent roster changes not only to his team but to their sister team, MVP Sky. 
In the Korean Heroes community board, translated by r_gg on teamliquid.net, Kwangbok revealed that Oreoman from Team AsD would be replacing Lockdown on MVP Black, and MonkeyDFish, also from Team AsD would be joining MVP Sky.

The MVP Sky changes have obviously been in the works since they've been fairly inactive, as he states, "due to Hide leaving the team. After hearing about Team AsD disbanding recently, we talked with a couple of their players and tried them out."

Along with being brothers, Lockdown and Hide were original members of MVP when it was created but were placed into separate teams with the creation of Black and Sky.
"Hide expressed interest in leaving the team and starting fresh in a different team if he can't play with his brother." says Kwangbok.
After his departure, Lockdown chose to leave Black in order to be able to play competitively with his brother, which hints of course that the brothers could possibly be creating their own team together.

The addition of Oreoman comes as a bit of surprise considering his dramatic past, including several accounts of toxic behaviour.
"After talking with him, we learned that he was just a young player at the age of 19, and that he is deeply regretting his past actions. While he was part of a team, he was not able to learn under the supervision of a manager or a coach. I decided to recruit him once I saw that he can have a bright future if we take him in and have him learn in a good environment."

Korea is arguably the strongest region right now, and with the new year come new high stakes tournaments and competition. Online qualifiers for Super League 2016 Season 1 are approaching, so more roster changes across the region are likely incoming.
