ATK to make major roster overhaul with Sonic, oSee, floppy - Report

ATK will no longer have a majority South African lineup following the replacement of three players, according to a report by Rush B Media.

Rhys "⁠Fadey⁠" Armstrong, Roberto "⁠blackpoisoN⁠" Dall'Occo, and Dominic "⁠Domsterr⁠" Sampaio are set to make way on the roster, with the team bringing back Aran "⁠Sonic⁠" Groesbeek following a previously reported departure from Envy.

The remaining two spots on the team will be filled by Singularity duo Josh "⁠oSee⁠" Ohm and Ricky "⁠floppy⁠" Kemery, reuniting the players with former teammate Ian "⁠motm⁠" Hardy. In-game leader Johnny "⁠JT⁠" Theodosiou will remain on the roster as he himself reunites with Sonic.

oSee and floppy are set to link up with ATK

ATK had the upper hand over Singularity in ESL Pro League Season 9 Relegation, but were unable to qualify for EPL Season 10 Americas following a narrow defeat to Envy in the grand finals. Singularity have been unable to qualify for EPL themselves, and were eliminated from contention at the StarLadder Major Americas Minor by Sharks, adding to a lacklustre run of results for the team.

The reported move would leave ATK with just two South African players, giving the team its first American core. The proposed lineup would look as follows:

South Africa Johnny "⁠JT⁠" Theodosiou
United States Ian "⁠motm⁠" Hardy
South Africa Aran "⁠Sonic⁠" Groesbeek
United States Josh "⁠oSee⁠" Ohm
United States Ricky "⁠floppy⁠" Kemery

South Africa Tiaan "⁠T.c⁠" Coertzen (Coach)

? Sonic = AWPer osee = AWPer <--- 99% becoming 2nd AWPer floppy = Rifler JT = IGL / Rifler motm = Rifler They are 2 main AWPers. My guess is that osee will 2nd AWP. To be honest i wished they picked hydrex from Singularity over osee for this team.

Singularity wasnt good overall but I would have loved to see Shakezullah joining coL, maybe with a more experienced player he could have improved as IGL, NA CS kinda lacks young IGL's
