F0rsaken =/= forsaken

ORG OVERVIEW
-Paper Rex was founded in January 2020 by Nikhil "nikH" Hathiramani, and entered with a CSGO team.
-The team initially played in SEA qualifiers in the online era of CSGO with moderate success, but never made it to any major or offline events due to CSGO’s small size in SEA and the suspension of offline tournaments due to the pandemic
-In July 2020 PRX announced their VALORANT division while still retaining their CSGO roster

ROSTER HISTORY
-The 2020 inaugural roster for PRX’s VALORANT team was:

-Brxndon
-Egoist
-Retla
-JdFaker
-pndmonia

-This initial roster struggled throughout the ignition series, frequently failing to make it out of groups.
-Headed into first strike, the team released JdFaker and pndmonia and began to trial a slew of players going into the qualifiers
-calel, Moosey, Shiba, benaf, and FANE all received trial periods, with Retla taking the place of Shiba for most of the qualifying matches. They would qualify for playoffs easily.
-However, ahead of playoffs, PRX would suspend their entire VALORANT roster, citing a “Breach of Integrity.” An official statement following the suspension would state:

In light of recent information, we have reason to believe that certain individuals on our Valorant roster were involved with activities that go against the meaning of fair competition and integrity of an esports professional.```

-With the suspension of their entire roster, PRX would not play in first strike at all, and looked to enter the start of VCT with a new roster

2021
-Ahead of VCT, PRX would transfer their CSGO roster to VALORANT, starting with the core of:

-Tommy
-mindfreak
-f0rsaken
-Benkai
-d4v41

-In their first outing, PRX would get knocked out quickly after only 4 matches played, with losses to Timing Monster Gaming and Team SMG
-The roster would see greater success through the second set of challengers, but with some losses in the MY/SG bracket on their way to the Grand Finals, where they would get swept by Kingsmen
-In stage 2, they would make it all the way to SEA Challengers finals, but lose in the upper final to X10 and the lower final to Full Sense, which cut their chances of attending Masters 2 short. However, the team had proved themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the SEA region
-Over the break, Tommy would be swapped for Shiba, and would roll into the final challengers split of the year looking to attend Masters Berlin
-After some stumbles in the qualifier, PRX would cruise into playoffs in the final challengers of the year, and make it out of challengers finals groups with 2 wins and a draw
-In challengers finals they would secure a spot in the Grand Finals, and a spot in Berlin. They would finish second after losing to Bren in the Grand Finals
-Due to visa issues, Bren would be unable to attend Masters 3, making PRX the sole representative of SEA
-After an early loss where they pushed Vision Strikers to their limits, they would play a tight match against SMB in the elimination match, and would get sent home in 13th-16th place
-Due to their high placements throughout the year, they had earned a spot at APAC LCQ, and swapped Shiba for Jinggg
-In the APAC LCQ, They would win their opening match to GE, but lose consecutive matches to Northeption and Damwon gaming, ending their VCT season

2022
-PRX chose to retain their roster ahead of the 2022 season, and proved to be dominant in their run through the first challengers stage of the year
-The team beat Xerxia in the grand final of playoffs to secure the #1 seed of APAC, and a playoff bye at Iceland
-In Iceland, they would be sent to the lower bracket early by DRX, before beating Guard and G2 in the lower bracket to keep their run alive
-Interestingly, PRX began to be known for their crazy comps around this time, and beat G2 on Bind with f0rsaken on Yoru, which was the first time Yoru had won internationally
-Unfortunately, the teams run was cut short by Zeta Division, who were on a cinderella run of their own, ending in 4th place
-In the second challengers, PRX again cruised towards the #1 APAC seed, securing a spot at Masters Copenhagen alongside Xerxia, as well as another bye into playoffs
-In playoffs, they would beat Guild and Fnatic to make it to the upper final, and as one of the first teams to play in front of a live crowd in a VCT event
-In the upper final they would beat reigning champions OpTic, but would fall in the Grand Finals to FPX, a team that were on a legendary lower bracket run of their own. They finished 2nd at Masters Copenhagen, the highest international placement of any APAC team in VALORANT to date
-At Champions, they would win their opener against EDG, before losing to Leviatan and Liquid, ending their VCT season in 9th-12th place at Champions
-Last week, PRX played in the GXR India invitational, and beat Team Heretics in the Grand Finals to win the entire event

ROSTER MOVES
-PRX have chosen to retain their entire roster ahead of the VCT 2023 season
-JdFaker has been brought back as a manager, and Sleepy was signed as head of esports programming
-CigaretteS, a former Z11 player and Xerixa stand-in, was brought in as a 6th man
-PRX in 2023 will be:

-Jinggg
-mindfreak
-Benkai
-f0rsaken
-d4v41
-CigaretteS

I’m a giants (football) fan

ORG OVERVIEW
-Giants Gaming, previously known as Vodafone Giants, are a Spanish esports org founded in 2008. They operate out of the city of Malaga
-They’ve competed in CSGO, CoD, Fifa, Fortnite, R6, Valorant, and the EU LCS. However they are no longer in CSGO, and did not make into the LEC.
-Their Rainbow 6 Siege roster has seen some relative success, and their Valorant team has seen some relatively strong finishes and pulled off some upsets.
-Giants currently competes with many other spanish orgs that were accepted into the EMEA League, such as G2, Heretics, and KOI.

ROSTER HISTORY
2021
-Giants first picked up the orgless/ex-prodigy roster that had made a run in First Strike the previous year, and intended on entering the first season of VCT with the lineup of:

-happy
-hoody
-pipsoN
-meddo
-boo

-Going into the first stage of challengers, Giants would be denied a spot in the closed qualifier with a Ro16 loss to Fnatic, and would lose again in the next qualifier with a terrible upset against F/A roster animel. This ushered in a roster change that saw happy be replaced with Fit1nho.
-With this new roster they would claw into playoff qualification, but fall short with a tough loss to Dfuseteam, ending their chances of attending stage 1 masters
-In the second challengers stage following masters, Giants would again fail to qualify for playoffs, with losses to Acend and Vitality in the Ro16 of the open bracket, ending their chances of qualifying for Iceland and international competition.
-With this loss, pipsoN would move to a coaching role, and MOLSi would be brought in as a new 5th. Giants would have one more opportunity to qualify for a masters event in stage 3
-Entering stage 3, Giants again faced a Ro16 loss to Rixgg, causing the org to make the drastic decision to bench boo and MOLSi, and bring in Davidp and Ambi as stand-ins.
-With this roster, Giants would make a deep run. They went all the way from Ro128 to closed upper semis without dropping a map, and continued all the way to the Grand Finals of Challengers 3 where they would lose 1-3 to Liquid. Their high placement had secured them a spot in EMEA Challenger playoffs
-Giants would lose to Oxygen in their opening match, and send home Navi and Guild in the lower bracket, before losing to G2, ending their chances of qualification to Berlin. Due to their lack of circuit points, Giants would be unable to attend LCQ and ended their VCT season in August.
-Giants played some offseason tournaments with their new roster, but would end up releasing all of their players with the exception of Fit1nho at the start of 2022.
2022
-Giants would build a new roster around Fit1nho, and the new lineup would be:

-Fit1nho
-russ
-Jesse
-Quick
-MONSTEERR

-With this new roster, Giants played in the VCT open qualifier, but lost in the Ro32 both times, ending their chances of competing in the main group stage of the 2022 VCT. Instead, they opted to play in the spanish VRL.
-In the VRL, Giants secured the #1 seed with a 7-2 record and qualified for playoffs. They would go out in semifinals after being swept by Case Esports
-During the break between splits, Kiles would replace MONSTEERR, and ShadoW would replace Quick. In the second season, Giants would end in second with a 12-6 record, again qualifying for playoffs, but would again lose in Semis to UCAM Tokiers, ending their VRL season and effectively ending their 2022 VCT-sponsored season

ROSTER MOVES
-After it was announced they made franchising, Giants benched ShadoW, and released the rest of their players except for Fit1nho.
-To build a new core, Giants picked up nukkye and hoody from G2, rhyme who was returning from a stint in NA, and Cloud who had been released from Navi. pipsoN would also make his return as head coach. The VCT database says Russz is their 6th player.

All of the EMEA teams have been completed and I’ll be providing an addendum and megathread shortly with all updated rosters and changes made for the Americas and EMEA Leagues. I’ll be doing Pacific next. EMEA has taken a lot longer than I would have liked it to, and I hope Pacific will not take as long. Thank you for your continued patience and support.

betting odds

if you bet 100 dollars on KRU and they win, you'll get 700 back (i think)

Probably bigger than 10 bucks

it should have said Big Boss Layf it was a mistake I made im sorry

BBL fans finding out BBL isnt actually an esports org thats all big booty latinas

I knew BBL stood for big boss layf yup yes didnt think of anything else

ORG HISTORY
-Big Boss Layf esports, frequently abbreviated to BBL esports, is a Turkish organization founded in July 2020, and was created by a trio of Turkish founders
-In addition to VALORANT, BBL also compete in PUBG, although that roster has struggled at the international level
-BBL are, without a doubt, the largest Turkish esports organization currently competing in VALORANT. They also have a sizeable fanbase, which is best shown by the massive viewership drawn in from their matches
-BBL are also home to a fairly competitive game changers roster, BBL Queens

ROSTER HISTORY

2020
-BBL first entered VALORANT in July 2020 and started with the roster of:

-cned
-legoo
-wtcn
-rogu
-kero

-Several others players would also be on the active roster, including russ, and AslanM4shadoW.
-The squad would play their first match in the Vitality European open but would fail to get out of their group.
-After some fairly mediocre results throughout the summer of 2020, cned would leave the roster for nolpenki, the roster that would eventually become Acend
-Going into first strike, Russ and AsLanm4shadoW were both promoted to the main roster, and aimDLL would join them. Wtcn and rogu would both step down.
-The roster would comfortably climb into First Strike playoffs, and would make their way to the Grand Finals and topple Futbolist esports, winning 3-0, making BBL Valorant’s First Strike Turkey champions.

2021
-BBL would opt to not make any roster moves going into 2021 and the first season of VCT. The inaugural season has Turkey in its own separate circuit, largely due to the pandemic.
-BBL again cruised through the qualifier, earning themselves a spot at Turkey’s masters. They would lose to Futbolist and groups but still make it to playoffs, but again lose to FUT in the Grand Finals, getting swept 0-3.
-Going into the second split and coming off a runners up spot in Masters 1, BBL would tumble in the first challengers of stage 2, but recover and qualify for EMEA Challengers playoffs, the first time BBL would be playing against EU teams, and were in contention for a spot at Masters 2, the first international Valorant lan.
-Unfortunately, BBL were knocked out immediately with back to back losses to Team Liquid and Gambit.
-Over the summer, BBL swapped Muj for russ, and fred would step up into the roster. At this point, BBL were

-aimDLL
-AsLanM4shadoW
-fred
-Muj
-kero

-Unfortunately, BBL would play very poorly throughout stage 3, and exited challengers without qualifying for playoffs. Due to their poor performance compared to the rest of EMEA (which can kind of be blamed as a fault of the 2021 format), BBL were unable to attend EMEA LCQ, ending their VCT season in July.
-Over the winter break, BBL would add paura, turko, and QutionerX, while retaining AsLan and aimDLL, and would begin 2022 with this roster.

2022
-BBL would have a hot start in 2022 by qualifying for the VCT as one of Turkey’s representative.
-They would stagger in the group stage with consecutive losses to Guild and FNATIC. Following week 2 of VCT, the EMEA VCT was put on hold due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Competition would not resume until 3 weeks later
-In the week 3 (4?) match, BBL would be put against SuperMassiveBlaze, the other Turkish representative, and acquire their first win. With a week 4 (3?) loss against G2, BBL were out of playoff contention, but a win against Acend in week 5 secured them a spot in the next split with a 2-3 record.
-In the following split, BBL would win their opener against Navi, and lose their next 3 matches. They would again squeak out a week 5 against BIG, but would not be able to attend playoffs with a 2-3 record. However, with enough circuit points accrued, they would be able to attend EMEA LCQ
-At LCQ, BBL bombed out with losses to Guild and Liquid, not winning a single map, and ending their VCT season.

RUMORED ROSTER MOVES
-BBL have confirmed Brave and Elite as part of their roster for 2023. QutionerX, AsLan, and Turko are rumored to be the ones rounding out the roster.

I’ll be doing Giants as the last EMEA org, and then I’ll begin writing for Pacific. I also plan on posting an addendum for Americas and some of the earlier EMEA orgs that have now confirmed their rosters after I finished Giants. Thank you everyone for your continued support.

FUTBOL!!!!!!!

ORG OVERVIEW

-Futbolist is a Turkish esports org founded in 2016, branching off from a pre-existing sports news app. They currently host teams in PUBG, Hearthstone, Wild Rift, FIFA, and Valorant
-Futbolist is one of the two Turkish organizations that will be representing Turkey in the EMEA 2023 League.

ROSTER HISTORY

2020
-Futbolist first entered VALORANT right before first strike qualifiers with the pre-existing 5 of LOL, consisting of

-MOJJ
-SasuKe
-marqnue
-sterben
-mag0o

-At first strike, they lost their opening match to OXG, but went on a tear through the lower bracket, beating Random 5, Anatolia, Sangal, and BBL to secure their spot in playoffs.
-In playoffs, they rode all the way to the upper final, but would lose to BBL. After defeating OXG in the lower final to make it to Grands, they would get swept 3-0, ending First Strike in second place

2021
-Ahead of VCT, marqnue would move to a coaching role, and be replaced by qRaxs. The Turkish circuit for VCT was kept separate all the way through the end of Stage 2.
-In the first stage, FUT would take down Blame, Aurora, and Wildcats before a loss to Otherside sent them to the third challengers, where they would take down Anatolia to secure a spot at Turkish masters.
-At Masters 1, FUT tore through OtherSide, Rare, and BBL Twice to win the event, dropping only 1 map in the process. They beat BBL in Semis and Grands 5-0.
-Entering stage 2, they would again tear through the Turkish bracket and win the grand final to enter EMEA Challengers Finals as Turkey’s number one seed. However, they would face consecutive losses to Guild and OXG, ending their chances of attending Masters 2.
-Unfortunately in Stage 3, FUT wouldn’t even make it to Challengers Finals and fizzled out in Turkish playoffs. However, they squeaked by into LCQ
-At LCQ, FUT opted to bring in qw1, and exited in LR3 with a loss to Guild. Heading into 2022, they would drastically shake up their roster

2022
-Entering the 2022 season, FUT would field:

-qw1
-MrFalin
-MOJJ
-p0wa77
-qRaxs

-The squad would make it all the way to the finals of the Turkish qualifier for the VCT stages, but fell short to BBL 1-3 in the Grand Finals, denying them a chance to play in the main group stage.
-Instead, FUT continued to play through the Turkish VRLs. They finished the first season 5-2 and earned a spot in playoffs, but would exit in the play-in stage with a loss to Team Lixa. After this p0wa77 was swapped for MUJ
-In the second season FUT would finish 4-3, still qualifying for playoffs. This time they would take down FFX in the Grand Finals to secure a spot at the VRL finals, where all the winners of each VRL would compete against each other
-At VRL finals, they would take down Vitality 3-2 in the grand finals with a reverse sweep, and were crowned 2022 VRL Champions.
-The team has since qualified for Red Bull Home Ground set to take place in December, as the sole Turkish representative

RUMORED ROSTER MOVES
-FUT have added AtaKaptan as a 6th player, and are said to be retaining their core 5 of players, which has led to some doubt their competitiveness in the EMEA League where there are already 3 super teams. Nonetheless, the roster for FUT Esports in 2023 is set to be:

-MrFalin
-qw1
-MUJ
-qRaxs
-MOJJ
-AtaKaptan

The remaining orgs for EMEA are Giants and BBL

avg of 24 a day

back when shadowisbad wasnt banned i think his average was in the 40s

average of 15 posts a day

my people

KRU smm getting a raise or getting fired

I think people were expecting more from the offseason/independent tournament organizer series following Champions and its been a bit of a letdown. While the faze all-star weekend and spike nations were fun it was more content oriented than competition

Redbull HG and Knights freezeout are in the horizon but I'd rather see actual Ascension or even partnered teams attend rather than some pugs

theres this match not sure what tourney https://twitter.com/JakeSucky/status/1539321533784416259

also the last 3 days of M2 Copenhagen

editted to reflect this, thanks for pointing it out

I think the gap between FNC/TL/KOI is super small but navi has an edge rn
I also don't know as much about EMEA val so my opinion doesnt have a ton of weight

Koi are actually sick im glad i wrote this also im back hello

ORG OVERVIEW

-KOI are a Spanish organization that were founded in 2021, founded by streamer Ibai Llanos Garatea and former footballer Gerard Piqué Bernabéu. They are also known as Finetwork KOI in League of Legends.
-They currently compete in Valorant, League of Legends, and TFT. They also host a slew of content creators.
-In October earlier this year, KOI announced a merger with pre-existing organization, Rogue, resulting in Rogue’s rosters competing under the KOI name in 2023. This adds a Rocket League team, an R6 team, a CoD team, and an LEC slot.
-In League of Legends specifically, KOI’s owner has brought in massive viewership, having an all-time peak of 212,000 viewers (which is more than Tarik’s peak for reference)

ROSTER HISTORY

-KOI chose to pick up the core of UCAM Tokiers after they released their roster at the end of 2021, and added some of their own players. PHYRN, Shrew, Sacake, and keeping ThoR as a sub. Joining would be starkk and H1ber. The roster going into 2022 would be:

-starkk
-H1ber
-PHYRN
-Shrew
-Sacake

-Entering the first qualifier, KOI would make it into the closed qualifier, but would fall to Vitality in the quarter finals. In their second attempt at qualifying for the group stages, they would get eliminated by free agent team need more DM
-With their hopes of making VCT now squashed, KOI opted to play through the Spain: Rising VRL. They would have relative success, ending the season in second place with a 6-3 record, and a seed in playoffs
-In playoffs, they would fall in the semifinals to Rebels Gaming in a grueling 5 map series, where H1ber dropped 96 kills. Rebels would go on to win the entire Spanish VRL.
-After playoffs ended, H1ber would stand-in for FNATIC at Masters 1 before leaving the organization entirely, with Famsii taking his place.
-In the second season of VRL Spain, KOI would start 1-4 and change their roster after round 6, adding neptuNo and benching starkk. Shrew would also be benched later in the split and be replaced by MAGNUM.
-KOI would end the season with an abysmal 5-13 record, which put them into the demotion tournament. They would beat Real Betis to stave off demotion.
-During the offseason, KOI played in the Redbull HG qualifier, and would exit in the Grand Final with a loss to BIG. They would also play show matches against KRU and Leviatan, which to my knowledge is the first non-VCT inter-regional match

RUMORED ROSTER MOVES
-KOI have benched their entire roster and are looking to build a new squad for the 2023 EMEA League. Currently, they are rumored to be picking up:

-trexx
-Koldamenta
-starxo
-Sheydos
-Wolfen

Comment any mistakes or misconceptions I made, I’m not particularly familiar with KOI but I do look forward to seeing them in 2023 with this roster. Most of the information regarding Org History was also in Spanish, so there may be mistranslated information. The remaining EU orgs are Futbolist, BBL, and Giants. Comment if there's any one in particular you want me to do next.

theres no doubt he was one of, if not the best jett op in the ignition series era. He was also one of the biggest faces of valo during its rise

I don't know if skrossi is past his prime if hes putting up 98 kills in 3 maps...

However I do think he is easily one of if not the most influential player in South Asian valorant

did curry even have a prime

I would like to announce my retirement

major league sports have hall of fames but theyre not dead

I heard he was coming back and reuniting with the X10/Xerxia boys on talon but I haven't seen it confirmed

If Loud werent so recent they would be in there

yay sacy ardiis nats FNS chronicle abnd boaster are all still in their prime with is why i didn't include them

FNATIC's old flex. imo he was the most impactful player on the 2021 iceland and champions roster aside from derke

dudes still shootin straight

i would say roza is past his prime as far as matches go but his ranked games tell a different story

glow was part of the OG vision strikers team that went on the 102 map win streak

who would you say are HoF candidates?
I'm only looking at players that are past their prime/no longer part of the scene since thats what a hall of fame is generally for, so don't expect any players that are active or are in their prime (i.e zekken, yay, nats, stax, etc)

-glow (DRX/VS)
-doma
-WARDELL
-Hiko (im serious)
-shahz
-cNed (debateable if hes past his prime) nvm cned is still good
-subroza

some additional ones I found in comments:
-all of OG tsm
-all of OG sen (including tenz)
-OG G2
-patiphan (if he doesnt come back)

i know this list is pretty NA centered to feel free to add

This ones pretty short KCorp havent been in val that long

I apologize for the lack of content recently. I've been dealing with midterms and some personal matters, but I have not lost motivation for these analyses. There are more frequent updates on my twitter, and I plan on publishing all of these articles on medium at some point in the future. Thank you again everyone for your continued support.

editted, thanks for letting me know!

A lot of the data about Heretic's history is in spanish so some things end up slipping through the cracks

TH has a crazy good logo and now they have crazy good players

TLDR
-Team Heretics is a spanish org founded in 2016 that competes in LoL, Fortnite, and previously CSGO. They got their start in CoD
-They won first strike and made it to the finals of masters 1 before falling short to Acend
-After this loss the squad would be unable to qualify for any other playoff brackets for the remainder of VCT, and did not qualify for LCQ. The roster also became a bit of a revolving door during this time
-Going into 2022, Heretics were relegated to the VRL spain after failing to qualify for VCT groups. They would end the first split 1-8, and end the second split 7-11, failing to qualify for playoffs in both of them.
-Since then, major roster moves have been made ahead of the 2023 VCT season. Mixwell has been brought in, and there are rumors of L1NK and zeek joining as well (although the rumors are unconfirmed)

ORG HISTORY
-Team Heretics was founded in 2016 by youtuber Goorgo. They are a spanish organization and have built themselves up in the spanish esports scene very quickly with the signing of multiple rosters
-TH currently competes in League of Legends, Valorant, and Fortnite. They previously retained a CSGO roster. Heretics also has entered the LEC for the 2023 season after taking Misfit’s spot.
-In 2019, footballer Sergio Reguilon would partner himself with Team Heretics, marking his first venture into esports
-There are no public listings for Heretic’s net worth, equity, or revenue. However, they maintain a steady social presence with over a million twitter followers and youtube subscribers

**

2020
-Heretics got their start in the ignition series ahead of First Strike. The roster at the time consisted of

-nieSoW
-nukkye
-pAura
-AvovA
-lowel

-After winning both LVP Genesis cups, Heretics would take to the open qualifiers of First Strike. They would lose in the first set to NiP, but would make a return to the second open and tear through the competition, securing a spot in playoffs with a win over Team Finest
-Even after qualifying, TH would continue to get reps in other tournaments, such as GameGune.
-In playoffs, they would take down Liquid, G2, and beat SUMN FC (future FNATIC squad) in the grand finals to win First Strike, solidifying themselves as the best team in EMEA

2021
-Going into the first VCT qualifier, Heretics brought in RUBINO as a 6th man, frequently filling the spot of nieSow. Heretics would suffer an embarrassing Ro128 loss to Entropiq, but would tear through the second qualifier to earn a spot at the first European masters.
-At masters, Heretics would take down Ballista, NiP, and Guild to secure a grand final match with Acend.
-They would lose 2-3 in a Bo5 match that was considered one of the best for its time, and gave Heretics a second place finish at Masters 1.
-Going into Stage 2, nieSow would officially depart the roster, rounding out Heretics to just 5 players. Now competing for a potentially international slot, Heretics would enter the open qualifiers of Challengers 2
-The squad would face early losses to Alliance and Opportunities, knocking them out of the first qualifier, and a loss to G2 in the second qualifier would knock them out of contention for Masters 2. This was a low point for Heretics and brought about some serious roster moves
-Over the break between splits, Heretics released all of their players except for lowel. They would sign MONSTEERR, ardiis, al0rante, and PaTiTek as their new roster. Heretics, entering the final challengers stage of the year, would be:

-MONSTEERR
-lowel
-ardiis
-al0rante
-PaTiTek

-In the first qualifier of Stage 3, Heretics would go out early with a Ro64 loss to BK ROG.
-In their final chance for qualification, they would claw their way into the closed qualifier,but face back to back losses to Tenstar and Vitality, ending their chances of attending Berlin.
-Due to their poor placement following Masters 1 and the rise of other teams, Heretics would not attend LCQ
-Over the offseason, ardiis, MONSTEERR, and PatiTek would all depart the org, and they would rebuild around al0rante and lowel going into 2022

2022
-Going into the new VCT format, Heretics would sign mertz, TENZKI, and Bromas to round out their roster. Unfortunately, they would stumble in the VCT groups qualifier, and would exit in the Ro64. Due to the new format, they would not get another opportunity for the rest of the year
-Instead, the squad was relegated to the Spain VRL. At this point al0rante would leave the team and be replaced by PoPiFresH
-The team would start an abysmal 1-5 before signing Keloqz, but it was too little too late. Heretics would end the first VRL with a 1-8 record
-Due to their poor placement, they would be put into the demotion bracket, but would survive elimination and attend the next VRL split
-In their second split they finished outside of playoff contention with a 7-11 record, ending their chances at attending VRL finals
-Following the conclusion of the VRL, more roster moves would come for Heretics. The new squad would be:

-pAura
-keloqz
-snikk
-grubinho
-lowel

-They most recently played through the Redbull Home Ground EMEA qualifier, where they finished 3rd-4th following a loss to KOI in the semifinals, denying them a spot at Redbull HG

ROSTER MOVES
-grubinho and snikk have both been allowed to explore other options
-Mixwell was signed to the roster earlier today, rejoining his former G2 teammate, Keloqz
-Heretics are RUMORED to be looking at L1NK and zeek, but no published article confirming the deal has been released
-Should all of the rumors be true, Heretics in 2023 could be:

-L1NK
-keloz
-mixwell
-zeek
-lowel
