Hello!
I've been wanting to do a statement for a while regarding the shuffle, and why I am no longer on Team Secret, but I've been very busy with Christmas, New Years and I've been thinking a lot about what to say.
Let me take you back to the very beginning of this team. Myself and Kuro were talking together in Seattle after TI4. We got along very well, and still do, but at the time we were unhappy with how things had went in the past, Dota related.
Talks kept happening and we ended up deciding on forming a team together with a very specific idea in mind. This would be a winning team, a team built to win. If a problem would occur within the team the problem would be solved within the team, if that's turns out not to be possible the team would fix it the other way (i.e. roster replacements). And that's what has happened this last month and a half.
I have a very good relationship with everyone remaining in secret, there is not a single ounce of bad blood between us and I don't see a reason for there to be any. The decision to remove me and misery for Zai and Arteezy I completely understand, I would be stupid if I don't get the reasoning behind this decision. They're very talented players and there were some issues within the team, although minor issues, the team thinks it can do better with this change.
For the people following the scene closely, you will have already seen I found my place in the Cloud9 team and I am very positive about what we can accomplish, but that post is for another time :)
The main point of this post is to remove any negativity towards any of these players that jumped teams, whether it’s Secret, EG or C9.
We are just young boiz that wanna play doto ^
Thanks for reading, enjoy the scene and don't make it worse!
