It had been in the air for a few days and the information had already leaked on the networks, but it is now official: the Karmine Corp. changed their Rocket League roster! The Spaniard Marc “Stakes“Bosch Plujà having left to sign with William Resolve, a replacement had to be found. But the latter did not arrive alone: the structure also recruited a new coach!
For some, that’s a bit of a change all at once, especially in the middle of the season. But it must be said that the team’s results haven’t been particularly good lately… It was therefore perhaps time to do a major cleaning in order to restart the machine. For the moment, remember that KC is in 8th place in the EU Ranking and that you have to finish in the top 4 to be certain of participating in the Worlds at the end of the year. The race is not over yet but given that the gaps are substantial, the Karmine will have to work hard with his new elements to pack the final sprint.
A new player and a new coach to shift into second gear
To replace Stakesit’s Joseph”noly” Kidd who has officially landed. It’s not really a surprise given that the player had worn the colors of KC for the RTBF iXPé (4th place). Temporary replacement, he is now a full-time player and the Englishman will try to confirm the small promises that we had the opportunity to see during his test run. Formerly at Guild Esports, he has a lot of experience behind him and has already participated in many Majors.
In terms of coaching staff, the Spaniard Arleyobi keeps a place, but he goes from coach to assistant coach. Even if this change can be seen as a sort of sanction, the structure is still counting on him to help the team progress. The one who inherits the keys to the truck is the Belgian Wagner “Eversax” Benjamin. He is coming out of his “retirement” as a content creator to return to competition. We imagine that he missed the adrenaline of matches. The challenge is great, it remains to be seen if he will be able to live up to it. .
Drama? What drama?
Kameto wanted to speak to deny several rumors that he saw proliferating on the networks. Quite annoyed, he reestablished his truth:
- Stake kicked out because he was Spanish ? This rumor has neither head nor tail. The Karmine Corp appreciates the player and it is no coincidence that the structure brought him to his original roster. The reason for his replacement is simple: the trio was not clicking enough and the results were disappointing. But there is no problem between the player and the team. She even accompanied a maximum Stake to help him find another house (William Resolve). Not all structures would have made the effort.
- AztraL at the origin of the replacement ? Another rumor claims that AztraL initiated the switch because he no longer wanted to play with Stake. Once again it is totally unfounded and many would have stupidly repeated and spread this rumor without thinking and especially without knowing the truth.
