No, he never did. He said he wasn't planning to attend Live events for a few months

depends on how you read into that, Seems like no live events ever... But thats the source of the confusion, linked for ease of arguments.

House? I suggest you read this: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=393053

CoL doesn't seem to be going anywhere in sc2.

Not really surprised at all about this, though I will say it's nice that he was able to join up with the old ROOT guys. Now all they need is qxc (RIP coL? lol).

Welcome back Minigun!

So coL announces that Minigun leaves coL. And then 2 hours later Minigun joins ROOT. Yup, this was definitely done way in advance.

CatZ mentioned that there would be news today for ROOT right before he signed off his stream yesterday afternoon/night. I forgot about it until I saw this announcement.

which is why I feel the need to clarify. also clarified in our news post. Timing sucks for coL, but this has nothing to do with coL dying or anything of that sort, like I said, we've wanted chad back since the day we remade the team. compLexity is a great organization going through a lot of changes recently, but they are FAR from dying. I also want to make sure people know coL agreed to let Minigun out of his contract early, where they could have just said "Nope".

No one should try to read too much into this, the TLDR is:

1.coL was nice enough to let Minigun go early (he's wanted to be with us for a while, we're all his friends and he's in the ROOT chat channel on skype since its conception)

2.Minigun doesn't plan to go to live events in the next few months. (this was already known by a blog post he made, and tbh, its been known since he started playing, he's been to >>3?<< events in the last 2 years. He has figure out some personal stuff, but he'll be as active online as always... I mean he's #1 GM on NA right now.
