Is Hikaru still in TSM?
After recently leaving the E-sport team TSM, Hikaru Nakamura has been signed up by Misfits Gaming, where he joins content creators like Tubbo, a Pogchamps 3 participant.
This deal comes shortly after the announcement that the grandmaster would be parting ways with his previous esports sponsor, Team SolidMid (TSM). Nakamura signed to TSM for a six-figure deal in 2020 but on June 1, 2022, the partners announced an amicable split, with Nakamura stating it was “time for a change.”
Written by Yumi Hotta and illustrated by Takeshi Obata, Hikaru no Go was serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine from January 8, 1999, to July 14, 2003.
It was cancelled and ended abruptly without a real ending because of a controversy over a real life Korean Go player that claimed the series copied his likeness and made him look bad.
