ex-Epsilon part ways with kreaz

ex-Epsilon have decided to sever ties with Rasmus "⁠kreaz⁠" Johansson, it has been announced.

The news comes with little surprise after kreaz played no part in ex-Epsilon's successful qualification campaign for the MSI MGA 2019 Finals, with the team fielding Nikola "⁠NK4Y⁠" Radushev in the Swede's stead in the closed bracket.

kreaz had joined the team in May in a stand-in capacity in the aftermath of Nils "⁠k1to⁠" Gruhne's transfer to Sprout. He attended one LAN event with the squad, the Good Game League, where he averaged a 0.98 rating as the team finished in 5th-6th place.

ex-Epsilon down to four players as team waves goodbye to kreaz

The recent qualification for the MSI MGA event came as a much-needed boost for the European team, who are on the lookout for a new organisation to represent after parting ways with Epsilon last month.

It is still unclear who will be taking kreaz's spot in the starting line-up for the $60,000 competition, which will be held on September 28-29 in New York. At the North American tournament, the team will be crossing paths with ViCi, Gambit Youngsters and Riot Squad.

Following kreaz's departure, ex-Epsilon now have:

United Kingdom Kia "⁠Surreal⁠" Man
Netherlands Joey "⁠CRUC1AL⁠" Steusel
Bulgaria Teodor "⁠SPELLAN⁠" Nikolov
Latvia Helvijs "⁠broky⁠" Saukants

Bulgaria Dimitar "⁠DroW⁠" Slavkov (coach)

Nice try, kreaz has been in FPL for almost 2 years now. He has the worst personality on stream and is notorious for baiting and only thinking about stats. Rumors are the whole swedish scene hates him because of his shitty personality and baiting playstyle. Don't expect him to get any good teamoffers. Only one to do a comeback from that shitty image is k1to, and that was a miracle LOL

Probably because removing the IGL will just cause the team to go to shit. Finding IGL's these days ain't easy buddy.

difficult, the issue is not kreaz. Hes not incredible but new and most likely to progress. Perhaps they should have thought to drop someone else to bring something new.
