Statements from Team NrS and Welmu:

Newrosoft facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewRoSoft/photos/a.382556881766513.86629.229435187078684/891217730900423/?type=1&theater
"We are sad to announce that after two years the time has come to part ways with one of the most loved and successful player that ever performed for our team. This was a very difficult decision but a necessary one since we knew it was impossible for us to extend his contract. --"

Welmu on twitter:
http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1skciic
"Today I have to part away with my long time team Newrosoft since we weren't able to extend the contract anymore. Newrosoft has provided awesome chill atmosphere and support the whole time and I'm really grateful about. Thanks for Andrei and Valentin having me and good luck for the team and players in future, hopefully I get to visit romania again at some point .-- "

Welmu would be perfect pick by TeamLiquid

My last two years have been pretty rough health wise being frequently sick and in hospital and I didn't manage to progress my studies almost at all last semester, but since fall my health situation has been very good finally

Hopefully this is true. Welmu has cancelled way too many tournament participations

Yeah Welmu seemed a bit down on himself sometime ago and was getting a bit worried. Hopefully he will indeed be more healthy physically, with that have a better mental state also and find a proper team.
why even

Welmu is looking rather poor (imo) lately, so it does not really surprise me. I highly doubt Liquid would pick him up, even though he has great potential. I think more of a mid-tier EU team will.

How can you have not heard about arguably the best foreign Protoss last year? :o

I REALLY hope Welmu finds a good team. He has been looking better these days after a shaky start after his break. WCS Season 1 Premier will show us how good he actually is atm though.

Liquid just got a whole bunch of new sponsors and could really use another good European Protoss. Pick him up Nazgul!

He'd be an asset to any foreign team I feel, I just hope that he gets into one that'll provide chances to play teamleagues and send him to LANs.

Oh man, Welmu has been so strong in his WCS games last year. Sort of a surprise bash. Real joy to watch. GL

Welmu's one of the most easiest players to root for in all of Europe. This is clearly a case of NRS not being willing to pay Welmu what he believes he's worth. (If they were going to scale back their SC2 involvement, they'd have cut NightEnD before Welmu.)

He'll find a team, I'm sure. He has all the upside of Happy with none of the downside.

His accent is also really sick, something Happy doesn't have.

Welmu is a decent pick up by anyone's standards. Anyway, as long as Welmu is healthy, I'm happy

Where have you been? Sure he hasn't been super active (not that there have been a lot of major events since the end of WCS 14) but he just qualified for WCS 15 and won the largest bi-annual Finnish LAN (Assembly).

I hung out with him at the after party and I'll share that he's very positive about his future.

That would be quite fitting, as elfi is their only Protoss to date.
