A press release posted on the nGize website state's that has decided to take a hiatus from competitive gaming to instead focus on his schooling. Throughout his career Baker has been juggling his school commitments with his duties as a Warcraft player, making it somewhat difficult to practice or compete consistently.

Nicholas 'ShrieK' Miao Whittier will be retiring from competitive gaming permanently. A decision that was made well in advance, after competitive Warcraft started to lose its appeal, "I just haven't had any motivation to play. War3 hasn't been interesting for a long time, I don't like the recent balance or map changes. I really just want to make money playing poker instead of playing Warcraft.", he said on the issue of him retiring.

"It's too bad Demuslim left, but he had feeling similar to mine about Warcraft. He and I had a lot of fun being on the same team.", he said reminiscing about his time in nGize.

Whittier agreed to finish out the WC3L season with nGize before retiring. His final official Warcraft match will be versus SK Gaming during the final week of the current WC3L season.

With the departure of Baker and Whittier, ESWC dark horse Martin “Bonecracker” Hušák has been brought in to fill the role of nGize's resident human.

Hušák first made a splash on the international scene at the ESWC 2008 finals, where he applied angry_korea_man-esque strategies to highly competitive play, something rarely seen outside of ladder competition. He finished the event 9-12th, with wins over Du Seop 'WhO' Chang, Nikolaus 'SonKiE' Cassidy and Daniel 'miou' Holthuis, to name just a few.

Hušák was hoping his performance at ESWC would lead to him being picked up, "Since i was successful on ESWC i really hoped for the chance to join really good team and now it seems to be coming true.", as he explains.

Given his unique style, Hušák has peaked curiosity amongst Warcraft fans, eager to see his first official match.

Team nGize's roster is now as follows:

Daniel 'LiiLD.C' Claesson
Juha-Matti 'Satiini' Bäckström
Martin 'Bonecracker' Hušák
Fredrik 'KnOfF' Knopf
Andrew 'YanE' Toeniskoetter
