I was watching EG training streams on incontrol stream and overheard spades saying he is no longer with RGN???

i checked TLPD http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-international/teams/182_Team_Reign
as well as their team website http://reignsc2.com/roster/ but there was no announcement.
his twitter is not RGNspades either but https://twitter.com/SpadesSC2


Just want to know if this is true?

edit: well...

Well i guess ill post here.

Yes i decided to leave Reign about a week ago. I left amicably, there is no bad blood between myself and Reign. We are just in different places right now, and it makes more sense for me to focus on other opportunities. I wish them all the best of luck, and hope to remain friends with them for a long time to come. Although i will probably soon find a new home, you all should keep an eye on Reign, i expect they will keep improving and do big things in the near future.

Im daed. Follow me @TL_NB

If there is no announcement than its just a rumor as far as I'm concerned.

When I first met personally Spades last year at an UCF LAN he told me something (which I won't discuss w/o his permission) that will make him the least possible candidate to leave RGN.
Lets just leave it at before Spades leaves RGN, RGN has to die

So, I can guarantee you that Spades has not left RGN (unless he did something with that something which he told me about). If he did leave, it was for the better of his career.

He is/was the captain so it would have to be something serious to make him leave I'd imagine.

Because spades obviously is spreading rumors about himself leaving RGN.

Do you think reporters ask people if it is OK to take a story public?

"hey X i heard your leaving your team next week?"
"sorry i cant talk to you because you might post stuff on TL, i got stuff still up in the air cant go public yet"

OK, I can also confirm that you guys are going to be hearing from him, hopefully soon, about his future! :D

It is pretty exiting IMO from what he told me.
