Grayhound confirm Gratisfaction exit

Grayhound have confirmed that star player Sean "⁠Gratisfaction⁠" Kaiwai is on his way out of the team.

In a Twitter post, Grayhound wished the New Zealander "nothing but the best" in his future and expressed their hope that the player will "do our region proud".

This all but confirms that Gratisfaction is heading to North America along with ORDER's Jay "⁠Liazz⁠" Tregillgas to compete for Renegades, with both players having recently been added to the Asia Minor champions' ESEA roster.

Gratisfaction leaves Grayhound

Gratisfaction broke through with Immunity in late 2016, with the team going to join Grayhound in the following year after finishing in third place at the Asia Minor and the ZEN Esports League Finals - two events where they fielded stand-ins.

This year, he attended his first Big Events, IEM Sydney, the ESL Pro League Season 7 Finals and DreamHack Masters Stockholm, impressing with an average 1.08 rating at the Australian tournament, where Grayhound knocked out SK and took a map off eventual champions FaZe.

Grayhound have not yet announced who will be replacing the New Zealander on their roster, which currently looks as follows:

Christopher "⁠dexter⁠" Nong
Ollie "⁠DickStacy⁠" Tierney
Liam "⁠malta⁠" Schembri
Erdenetsogt "⁠erkaSt⁠" Gantulga
