Finish Terran Naama, a former Dreamhack champion and one of four remaining players at WCS Finland, has just announced he was leaving his team, Absolute Legends.

Santeri Lahtinen ‏@NaamaSc2
Gz to @babyknightsc2 on joining FXO I also want to announce that im not part of Absolute Legends anymore. Stay tuned


Stay tuned implies he already has a new team or has some offers lined up. Where will he go?

Edit: It seems DeathAngel is also gone. If a mod wants to change the title to Naama and DeathAngel, that'd be great :D

I am unsure but I think the manager of FXO was only trolling with the FXO.Naama tweet.

Makes the recent AL announcement look even more off. Now two of the three players they announced as having re-signed, have instead left the team. I wonder when/if DeathAngel will announce his departure.

I believe this happened a lot last year around this time too. This is when a lot of contracts are up for renewal.

Would actually be nice to see him on Mouz again, but I don´t know on what terms they parted back then.

We are proud to announce that we renewed the contracts of fi flag Santeri "Naama" Lahtinen, dk flag Jon "Babyknight" Andersen and ro flag Andrei "DeathAngel" Nodea. Sadly we couldn't sign se flag Madeleine "Maddelisk" Leander again, because we couldn't find good conditions for both parties.

fr flag Kevin "illu" Vandini, who was the manager of AL.StarCraft2 also left the team, because there have been different point of views regarding the team management. We want to thank him and se flag Madeleine "Maddelisk" Leander for their work and wish them all of luck in the future.

Well this will be interesting.

So they say they renewed all the contracts besides Maddelisk and now all 3 players are team-less or on a new team (Naama, DeathAngel, Babyknigh).
What?

I would've loved the complete AL roster to move to mouz, but sadly BK went to FXO. Atleast I hope these two can reinforce one of favorite teams.

Whatever happens though, good luck to both of them.

After seeing BabyKnight leaving for FXO this really was not that surprising. Hopefully these two can find new teams.

I'd really like to see Naama rejoin Mouz, but I feel like Mouz doesn't want to resign him.
At the very least, I would like to see him join FXO. Despite all the criticism for his all-in nature, Naama is a strong player.

Fixed it for you.

They'll still be around as an organization at the very least, they just signed a new LoL team.
