Not content with signing almost every free agent in the fighting game community back in January, Echo Fox have added Tekken players Choi "Saint" Jinwoo and Kim "JDCR" Hyun-Jun to their roster.

Saint, arguably the better known of the two right now, took first at both EVO and The King of the Iron First Tournament last year. He also claimed the top spot at Final Round 19 and placed third at EVO 2015.

"We still can't believe we are part of this team,” Saint said in a statement sent to theScore esports. "When we first got the email and we saw the word 'Echo Fox,' we couldn't take our eyes off those two words. That’s when we realized our lives would change from this moment on."

Despite not having played much competitive Tekken in 2016, JDCR is a legend in the scene, with strong tournament placements going back to the World Cyber Games 2011, where he took third in the Tekken 6 tournament.

He's been a dominant presence in the Tekken Tag Tournament 2 scene, taking first at the MLG Fall Championship in 2010 and first at EVO 2014, before placing fourth in EVO 2015's Tekken 7 tournament.

“Becoming pro-gamers has been always our dream," JDCR said in a statement sent to theScore esports. We are really proud of being on a team where we can view fellow pro-gamers as co-workers and family. We look forward to maturing as players and individuals with the Echo Fox organization. We really appreciate Echo Fox for this opportunity to grow together.”

For Echo Fox owner Rick Fox, the move was an inevitable one.

“When we expanded our fighting game team last month we did it knowing that it was only the first step towards becoming a dominating force in the fighting game community," Fox said in a statement sent to theScore esports.

"By signing the two of the best Tekken players in the world, Saint and JDCR, we’re moving closer to that goal. I’m pleased to welcome them both to the team.”

In January, Echo Fox signed Street Fighter players Justin Wong, Taniguchi "Tokido" Hajime, Momochi "Momochi" Yusuke and Momochi "ChochoBlanka" Yuko, Mortal Kombat players Dominique "Sonic Fox" McLean and Brad "Scar" Vaughn and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U player Leo "MKLeo" Lopez Perez.

Including Saint and JDCR, Echo Fox has 11 fighting game players in five different scenes signed to their team the largest FGC roster of any major esports organization.

“JDCR has always been a player I've had my eye on as he’s proven himself to be a champion time and again. Saint, on the other hand, is a player you simply can't ignore -- the man has been on a rampage in Tekken 7," Echo Fox fighting game general manager Antonio Javier said in a statement sent to theScore esports.

"What makes their signing even better for us is that Saint, JDCR, and the existing roster of Echo Fox Fighting Game athletes, are all fans of one another. If I was looking for an intangible reason to sign Saint and JDCR, this is it -- the mutual fandom and respect for and from their teammates.”

While Namco Bandai has yet to announce an official esports presence for Tekken 7 beyond last year's King of the Iron Fist circuit, Tekken 7 will be featured at EVO 2017, CEO 2017 and Combo Breaker 2017.
