Half of the franchises participating in the Overwatch League have now announced their brands after the Seoul Dynasty was announced earlier today. This comes just a few days after the team announced three more players joined its core formed from the former Lunatic-Hai roster.
According to the team's press release, the name was chosen in honor of the history of Seoul, once the capital of the Joseon Dynasty, as well as the history of Lunatic-Hai. The tiger is a national symbol of Korea, and was used as the logo to symbolize strength, courage, and good fortune.
