XMG adds two more players to extend their SC2 roster for 2013.
As of today ToD and SaltTheWound will be part of the SC2 division of XMG, alongside monchi and XlorD. While SaltTheWound will be added as a talent player,ToD will try o focus more on gaming while also continuing to cast WCS for the time being, it might be possible that he will try to compete in one of the upcoming seasons if things go well. A fifth player might be joining later on in 2013.
ToD will have his first showing for XMG at Dreamhack Open Stockholm 2013.
Statement ToD:
I am really excited to be able to compete within a team again and I already feel really comfortable around my new teammate. I hope for a longlasting partnership with XMG and Shitkid XlorD
Statement monchi:
Now we need just one more player to get the XMG.LeagueofLegends Team running! Kidding aside, I am really happy XMG decided to pick up ToD and Salt and I'm sure we will have a great time together.
We are proud to announce that as of today the french legend Yoan "ToD" Merlo and the german talent SaltTheWound will join the XMG Starcraft 2 division. The first appaerance of ToD will be at Dreamhack Open Stockholm 2013, which will start tomorrow and covered by XMG.
Wir sind sehr stolz euch bekanntgeben zu dürfen, dass die Warcraft 3 Legende aus Frankreich, ToD und das deutsche Talent SaltTheWound der Starcraft 2 Division von XMG joinen werden. ToD wird sein erstes Auftreten für XMG bei der morgigen Dreamhack Open Stockholm 2013 sein wird, welche XMG covern wird.

Yep he was with us for a while and left about 6 months ago. I had the pleasure of hanging out with him at MLG Dallas last year and had fun watching the finals with him! Good luck with everything ToD!

Edit: How come this is no community headline yet?
But for XMG I really hope that monchi gets a grip again on sc2, he is playing too much League of Legends (no not bashing that game, I think it's fun but overall SC2 is better)
Very happy to see ToD still picked-up by a team but WTF ARE THOSE PICTURES!!! He looks like shit (actually like the tail of a boiled lobster ... that's worse)!!!
Am I the only one that hopes ToD sticks with casting? He's been on fire in the WCS Europe casting, definitely in my top 5 at the moment, and really good at helping us get into the players heads.
