XMG adds two more players to extend their SC2 roster for 2013.

[image loading]



As of today [image loading] ToD and [image loading] SaltTheWound will be part of the SC2 division of XMG, alongside
[image loading]
monchi and [image loading] XlorD. While SaltTheWound will be added as a talent player,ToD will try o focus more on gaming while also continuing to cast WCS for the time being, it might be possible that he will try to compete in one of the upcoming seasons if things go well.
A fifth player might be joining later on in 2013.

ToD will have his first showing for XMG at Dreamhack Open Stockholm 2013.

Statement ToD:
I am really excited to be able to compete within a team again and I already feel really comfortable around my new teammate. I hope for a longlasting partnership with XMG and Shitkid XlorD


Statement monchi:
Now we need just one more player to get the XMG.LeagueofLegends Team running!
Kidding aside, I am really happy XMG decided to pick up ToD and Salt and I'm sure we will have a great time together.


Statement XlorD:
ToD is still playing?

Hoping to see Salt improve a lot. I think he has some good potential but struggles a lot with nerves in tournament situations.

All the best to Team XMG

SaltTheWound often casts on Taketv doesn't he?

Pretty good lineup, all they need now is a terran.
