Also, he may not even join a team. CSN John manages most of his stuff already. He may just go independent.



Actually, I am viOLet's personal manager and have been since November 2011 when he attended the CSN Training Camp.

For those of you that don't know his story, I recommend watching this



To clear up any speculation, viOLet's contract has ended with Empire, and as of now he is a free agent. We are reviewing his opportunities for sponsorship, both with teams and as an independent.



I want it to be known that there is also a possibility that he re-signs with Empire.

I will release a full statement when we have a better idea of his future plans.



Also, I want to state Empire has been a really awesome team for viOLet regardless if he re-signs or not.

There is no problems or issues between viOLet and them.

The official statement from Team Empire -



Empire.StrangeR - head sc2 coordinator of Team Empire:



Contract of viOLet expired yesterday and he is free agent now. I was very surprise, when read Andrew's statement, but he had right to do it even without approvement with Team Empire. I supposed, if viOLet decided to leave, we must do official announcement, instead this rumors.



We are thinking about offering to viOLet new contract, but there are other possibilities to add new players in Team Empire. As Andrew told, there is a chance to resign contract with viOlet too, it will depend of both side wishes.



I want to emphasize, that there is no problems between Team Empire and viOlet. We are grateful to him for his great work and victories for Team Empire. We wish to him good luck and new victories!

It appears that viOlet will not re-sign with Empire, and that Empire has already found a player to replace viOlet. From EmpireStrangeR's twitter:

viOlet changed his twitter name from empireviolet to sc2violet, which in the past for many progamers has indicated leaving their team. i think it's safe to assume that viOlet has left empire. I wonder what team he'll join?Update from Andrew Tomlinson from CSN, viOlets personal manager:Statement from Team Empire's StrangeR:It appears that viOlet will not re-sign with Empire, and that Empire has already found a player to replace viOlet. From EmpireStrangeR's twitter: Good luck to my friend, @SC2viOLet, in search of a new home. The new player of Team Empire will be announced this week
