Not too long ago the multigaming organization Excello lost their StarCraft squad, lead by Bartar, but now they picked up another existing roster; former MicroGamerZ.
“"We can no longer have the perfection I want in every aspect of my projects. So, I have decided to change the team's philosophy."
- From Bartar's statement
Old Excello speaks
After reading Bartar's long statement it is clear that he simply got tired of the community when it comes to playing competitively. The professionalism is not as high as he would have wanted it, and it was time for him to let StarCraft take less time. At least he thinks it is to quit on what he calls the unorganized, unprofessional scene, with freewins, hacking, biased admins and favouritism destroying the joy and enlightenment you actually get from playing StarCraft.
He also says that the roster he has will be released and that Excello expects their StarCraft team to aim for something else than just having fun playing, so they will part ways with Bartar as well. It seems they really want to keep putting money into StarCraft though, because it took them only a few days to fill the empty spot in the team list. MicroGamerZ got an offer they could not - or perhaps did not want to - refuse.

New Excello speaks
One of the teams three managers, TroNiC, tells GosuGamers that they had been in contact with Excello before, and that since they already knew each other and the offers they had before was not nearly as good as the one they got now, the discussion went smoothly and pretty fast.
He says that it was Alberto 'tomahawk' Teixeira the Managing Director of Team Excello, who came to them with the offer when Bartar decided to leave. tomahawk says in his statement that they were very sad to see the Greek and his team go, but that they also are happy to welcome MicroGamerZ into their family.
TroNiC says that they will not change much at all, but that not everyone decided to come with them to Excello.
- We told everyone they could follow us to the new team if they wanted to, but some people thought that they wanted to start moving to solo or other teams, and we wish them best of luck.
He also says that what we can expect from them is that they will keep doing what they have always done, only that they will stay in the leagues they play. This deal will hopefully bring their players some motivation, and it already brought a new tag, but that is all that will change.
When asked about however they have any new recruits coming up he does not really want to answer it, though, so maybe we will get to see some new blood in the old MgZ squad, helping forming the new Excello.bw.
