roca, RUSH released from eLevate

29-6-2015 19:14

North American team eLevate part ways with two players who were slated earlier this week to be joining the current Tempo Storm lineup.

Daniel "⁠roca⁠" Gustaferri and William "⁠RUSH⁠" Wierzba, two staple players of eLevate, were noticed earlier this week on Tempo Storm's lineup for the ESL One North American qualifier.

The move fueled speculation that these two players would be leaving their current berth on team eLevate and joining the current three-man lineup of Tempo Storm.

roca and RUSH leave eLevate

Although official confirmation is forthcoming, roca took to Twitter earlier to confirm that he and RUSH had officially left the eLevate roster. In addition, Tempo Storm's playoff match against Liquid in the RGN NA Pro Series already features both aforementioned players on the match roster.

This move leaves eLevate with this current lineup:

David "⁠Xp3⁠" Garrido
Tyler "⁠Storm⁠" Wood
Andrew "⁠Professor_Chaos⁠" Heintz

However, as seen in eLevate's lineup for the ESL One North American qualifier, certain players were being experimented with already such as ex-Liquid player Damian "⁠daps⁠" Steele and SKDC player Steven "⁠rooRoooo⁠" Herrell.

Released from @eLevateGG with my boy @eLevateRUSHH, thanks for everything guys. New team announcement soon!

poor pc stuck with noobs, i'm glad roca and rush get to move on, they belong on top teams. hopefully pc gets tired of carrying every game and gets on a top team

eLevate are the pool of talent getting picked by other teams... EliGE first, then I was sure roca & RUSH would have been picked sooner or later :/

When will storm retire?

Never. He needs CS to live. Like Jason Statham in Crank or whatever. If he stops playing he dies.

2015-06-29 19:31

Once he wins his second CPL

Worst team ever.

2bad, id have loved to see this lineup with roca, rush, storm, xp3 (the core) with the addition of pc in action, but rush was 1 week gone and they never really had the chance to see what damage the new "team" could have done.
