The situation seems unfathomable, but with Kurtis 'Aui_2000' Ling kicked from Evil Geniuses after winning TI5 last summer, stranger things have happened. When Johan 'BigDaddyN0tail' Sundstein was dropped along with Tal 'Fly' Aizik from Team Secret back in 2014, it was because the likes of Ludwig 'zai' Wåhlberg and Artour 'Arteezy' Babaev had become available. If Misery and also possibly W33haa have left Team Secret, it could be because stronger player(s) are on the market. There is also the small chance this is some kind of publicity stunt, only time will tell.
Misery tweet starts roster change frenzy
The first player to tweet was Rasmus 'rASmus' Fillipsen about half an hour ago:
im no longer team secret.
— Rasmus Filipsen (@MiSeRyDOTA) 23 March 2016
Minutes later Secret's mid player Omar 'w33haa' Aliwi tweeted the following, which is either referring to himself, or a playful reference to the departure of Misery:
4 days till roster lock, anyone need a guy?
— Aliwi Omar (@w33haa) 23 March 2016
@Aui_2000 the solution to this is to not win valve events

Update 1 - 03:00 CET, Secret owner tweet
An hour later the owner of Secret revealed the massive news that Arteezy and Universe will be joining Secret. This would be Arteezy's second time on Team Secret, and with w33haa seeming to be the slot he will fill, it appears a return to the mid lane is on the cards for Arteezy.
I would like to announce that @Arteezy and @UniverseDota will be joining Team Secret.

Former team-mate Sumail 'SumaiL' Syed Hassan couldn't resist the opportunity to comment:

Update 2 - 19:00 CET, Universe breaks silence on move
Sincerely sorry to anyone I hurt making this decision, will always cherish the memories I have with my old teammates. A new chapter

The situation is mostly like to develop further in the next 24-48 hours, and we will keep you posted.
