Fnatic and ToD part ways

Fnatic and ToD part ways

FnaticRaidCall is sad to announce that Yoan "ToD" Merlo will be leaving our Starcraft 2 team. Though ToD has been with us for a long time, both sides felt like it was time to move on. Fnatic has helped ToD grow as a player in Starcraft 2 and both sides are amicable as they move in different directions.

ToD was a hero in Warcraft 3, and his transition to Starcraft 2 has seen many jerseys worn. He joined Fnatic in September and has represented the team in tournaments across the globe. Though ToD has spent some recent months training in the Fnatic Gaming House in Korea and has seen slightly improved results of late, the team and ToD felt that parting ways was in the best interest for both parties.

Achievements with Fnatic

3rd/4th: TSL4 Qualifier #6 (EU/NA)
3rd: RaidCall Invitational #1
1st: Samsung European Championships 2011
2nd: SCAN Invitational #1 

Statements

Yoan "ToD" Merlo:

Me and Fnatic have mutually agreed on parting ways, I will still keep playing Starcraft 2 and probably be teamless for a while, I plan on streaming often you can follow me on twitter or facebook if you want to know when I do.

Elroy "Noname" Pinto:

Today we part ways with our team Captain and French Protoss Yoan Merlo, the decision was mutual. Yoan began his journey in Fnatic little less than a year back and during his time the co-operation worked well, he helped us at a time when Fnatic was restructuring and he saw us through a difficult phase. I am sad to lose him but I would like to take this opportunity to thank him for the time spent and look forward to seeing his career unfold in the coming months. Best of luck, Yoan!

    Sad, that things couldnt work out for you as well as in WC3, but we hope you will remain in the scene and probably even cast some games again :)
