Rick Fox leaves Echo Fox

According to a report from Newsweek, Rick Fox and former business partners in Echo Fox have settled a deal out of court, seeing Rick Fox leave the organisation and both lawsuits being dismissed.

A direct sale will determine who gets Echo Fox's League of Legends slot in the North American Championship Series (LCS), and here's what Rick Fox himself had to say on all of this in a statement to Newsweek:

"I have chosen to leave Echo Fox, the esports company that I founded, as a method to end the turbulent fighting and instead just continue to advance my visionary interest in being involved in a number of forward-thinking opportunities in the video game space with other strong, credible partners that share my values."

"On the court and in the business world, teammates are everything and there must be unity and a shared sense of purpose in order to succeed. In the case of Echo Fox, the significant difference of values, ethics and commitment to integrity was very problematic and damaging. I have shared my thoughts on this in my past statements and court filings, and sincerely hope that my experience can help provide further insight for people who should of course make their own judgements and determinations. I have learned some very painful lessons, and am relieved to now be moving on towards more positive business experiences."

"My experience with Echo Fox has in no way diminished my abiding passion for esports. I look forward to announcing my next endeavors in the coming days."
