Pasha: "The wonderful era has ended today"

JW: "Best of luck @g5taz. What doesnt kill you, makes you stronger. Will never forget all epic matches we played. Wish you the best moving forward."

Virtus.pro manager: "Wiktor is a legend. Parting ways with legends is never easy. It’s been an honor for me to work alongside @g5taz for the last 18 months. No matter how things go next I’d like to wish him all the best. He’s capable of great things. Thank you, Wiktor."

Szpero: "I think that this change was needed for VP, but anyway whatever @g5taz will do now he has always been and will be the legend for me since I play cs (2004). Hats off!"

Olofmeister: "Will be weird seeing VP without taz, hopefully the changes will be for the better for both parties. Sometimes everyone need a change! 💪"

Taz on Facebook: "This is not the last you hear of me"

"As of today I will no longer be playing for Virtus.pro lineup. The team decided that I don't fit in their plans, and I only respect that and want to wish them best of luck in the future! I feel that it is a change for best, for both parties. Changes are needed in life, and I'm looking forward to challenges ahead of me. This is not the last you hear of me. I never had problems with motivation, but I can tell you now - I'm more happy and motivated than ever!"

Good Luck Taz! 💖
