Melser was the smokes player for the team, often playing controller agents such as Omen and Astra. He leaves the team alongside an initiator player, adverso, who served as the team's Sova for much of the roster's time together. Leviatán has yet to officially announce players to replace the pair.

Originally from the core of Australs Australs Inactive Capi Ignacio del Rio adverso Benjamín Poblete Tacolilla Vicente Compagnon Melser Marco Eliot Machuca Amaro kiNgg Francisco Aravena , Melser, adverso, and their teammates were picked up by Leviatán following their second-place finish at the South American Last Chance Qualifier 2021. The squad remained relatively intact as it developed into LATAM's top team, only making one change to its roster over the course of the year.

The Chilean squad ended the first stage of their 2022 season with a play-in match against Ninjas In Pyjamas Ninjas In Pyjamas Inactive for the final Masters: Reykjavik slot. Unfortunately, Leviatán could not win, thus missing out on their first-ever international appearance.
