Taylor "Arthelon" Eder has left Bob Ross Fan Club to join Cloud 9, according to a tweet by Kenneth "Kenma" Buechter, the team's support player.

The TwitLonger explains that Arthelon had been in talks with Cloud 9 since BlizzCon and that he would have left earlier had Cloud 9 not traveled to China for the Gold Series Heroes League. He also explained that the team was well aware of this possibility.

Kenma's post explained that the team would be seeking to add a new fifth member sometime this month.

"We will be using the rest of December to find a permanent fifth member before signing with an org," he said. "Please continue to follow us on our journey, and we will likely have an announcement on our new 5th before the new year!"

Contacted directly for comment, Kenma again confirmed Arthelon's move and stated that he would not speculate on who Arthelon would be replacing on Cloud 9's roster.

"Don't wanna say who he's replacing, just wanted to let people know what's going on with our team so they don't think we are having inner turmoil or anything," Kenma explained.

Cloud 9's manager could not be immediately reached for comment on the move.
