Having played thirteen seasons between the two teams, Fox looks to take that competitive experience and channel it into his ownership of  North American LCS team Gravity, now rebranded into Echo Fox.  In a press release, Fox had this to say:

“As a professional athlete, businessman and proud member of the gaming community, I see the way that the eSports world is growing and I know we are on the verge of something massive.

The opportunity to parlay my experience in sports, entertainment and gaming into a leadership role with Echo Fox is exciting and humbling. This decision is equal parts business and personal for me."

While the spots ownership is announced, the roster is not.  Gravity finished fourth place in the North American LCS Summer Split, knocked out of a potential Worlds run by Cloud 9 in the first round of the regional qualifiers.
