The post TI6 shuffle continues as compLexity announces their team changes.
The NA team didn’t make it to the main stage of TI6 and it is clear some changes were needed. Today they announced that moving forward they will be releasing Simon 'Handsken' Haag and Linus 'Limmp' Blomdin at their own request. Rasmus 'Chessie' Blomdin will be stepping down from the team due to health problems. He will however continue to be in the compLexity organization, streaming under their banner during his rehabilitation.
The two remaining members, brothers Kyle 'swindlezz' and Zak 'Zfreek' Freedman, will be continuing with the team and will have tryouts for new members. Announcement of the final roster is expected soon.
Here are some partial statements from the teammates themselves (full versions here).
“
I've made the heartfelt decision to step down from the current coL.Dota roster to look to pursue other opportunities on my home soil. This was not an easy choice. The guys on the squad and those I worked around are people that I've befriended over many years. We leave on good terms and I'm sure we'll be competing against each other again, like we used to back in the day.” - Simon 'Handsken' Haag
“
All good things comes to an end, and for me it's time for a change. This experience was something else and I'd like to thank my teammates as well as Beef and Josh for that. I'd also like to thank compLexity for taking such good care of us, safe to say it's the best organisation that I've played for. See you on the flip side.” - Linus 'Limmp' Blomdin
“
I want to thank compLexity for taking great care of us during this year, and I will be staying on board as a streamer for now. Unfortunately, I have had some personal health problems unrelated to my previous back issues, and have decided to take a break from competitive gameplay for this first major to focus on getting that under control. Thanks to our fans for the support we've had, and I hope you'll come hang out in my stream!” - Rasmus 'Chessie' Blomdin
