OK Savings Bank and Brion's naming sponsorship contract has ended after three years.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to OK Savings Bank for their generous support and passion for Brion's growth since 2023.
From the underdog's rebellion to the moment of passionate victory, Brion was able to run without giving up thanks to OK Savings Bank, which was always with him.
I cherish every moment I spent with OK Savings Bank, and I wish you continued success in the future.
Also, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the fans who have loved and cherished the team called 'OK Savings Bank Brion'.
We ask for your continued interest and support for Brion's new journey.

No lord morgan... no OKBRO.... whats the point anymore Sadge
Ok bros I'm not ok...
Biggest lost of 2026...
Wait the team will still exist right? Just back to being just BRO?
Yes
Or until they announce a new sponsor
Welcome, Samsung BRO!
Honestly Samsung making a comeback would be dope as hell.
Samsung to buy out GenG.
Welcome back Samsung Galaxy Ruler!
Isn't Samsung to this day the only org besides T1 to win multiple Worlds?
yes in 2014 and 2017 with SSW and SSG

If SSW doesn't count as the same team as SSG, then SKT T1 2015/16 does not count as the same team as SKT T1 K in 2013. You can't have it both ways. SSG was the result of combining the two sister teams after they were banned going into 2015, same as SKT T1 S and K. In Samsung's case they had to do a full rebuild because all their players got huge contracts in China after 2014, but that doesn't change that the org and its infrastructure was all the same just without the sister teams.
SSB and SSW duked it out in semifinals in 2014, not sure if the bracket was set up in a way that prevented it from happening in the finals. Would have been corny as hell.
At the time, that was just the way things were in Korea; basically every org had 2 teams. Some western teams did it too before the LCS era. CLG had an NA and an EU team in S2 for example, but had to sell CLG.EU to EG when the NA and EU LCS started up in S3. Questions were occasionally raised about competitive integrity, but nothing was ever done about it until the system was abolished in 2015 (maybe motivated by both Samsung teams showing up at worlds, which hadn't happened before for any org except CLG in S2 iirc). The SSW/SSB final you dreamed of very well could have happened, and they were the 2 best teams, so it likely would have happened in an alt universe.
The only restrictions were that the groups 1 seed had to play the 2 seed from a different group, and that both teams from the same group had to be on opposite sides of the bracket.
So, they could have landed on opposite sides of the bracket, but that's a very different bracket to try and sort out.
I will never know why morons like you even comment. You clearly didn't watch back then or are just slow. T1 wasn't always T1, it was SKT T1 / SK Telecom T1.
Same logic applies and either way they're both the same teams.

That's not true though? The 2013 World Champions were SKT T1 K, the sister team of SKT T1 S. Same idea as Samsung Blue and Samsung White.
\SKT T1 K knocks on the door.
Oh is there some kind of council that decides this stuff?

The issue of building your branding off of a sponsor continues. Unless they own the team and are committed long term (SKT, KT, JDG) you'll end up like this.
It's how we ended up with Dplus KIA. Everyone called that team Damwon, but Damwon ended their partnership and now there is no brand.
Funniest team name ever created
Ok Bro
