We are not really in a transfer window period on League of Legends, but Div 2 obeys its own logic. There is only one week left before the end of the regular season, and instinctively, we would have thought the rosters were double-locked… But beGenius decided to go against the grain by recruiting 5 new elements for the final sprint!
By digging a little, this choice can however easily be understood. The team cannot go to the playoffs and will watch the fight for the title from afar. But she is certain to be at the rendezvous of the Up&Down at the end of the year with the best teams in the Mastercard Nexus Tower. It is with this in mind that beGenius has decided to strengthen itself.
4 new players and 1 headcoach
Only one element has been kept in the equation: the Amman support “XERSUS7“Gaindher. The other 4 players have jumped ship, namely Revo, Fallen, Pesho and Achuu. The head coach Moon had already packed up on July 18. To fill the gaps, BGN has called on Tamoz, Roulette, William4 and Scripter (players) in addition to Galdix who will be leading the project. The objective has already been announced: finish the season well in Div 2 and above all save the team’s place for next year. While beGenius has invested to buy the slot from GameWard Academysuch a rapid descent would be a bitter failure.
Among the newcomers called for the rescue mission, some names sound familiar. We think in particular of Tamozwho wore the colors of PCS this year in Div 2. But he may not be the biggest fish in the band… Roulette, the jungler has already been seen in TCL, the Turkish league. He has played for teams like SuperMassive Blaze, Istanbul Wildcats and Galatasaray Esports.
Is it moral good?
We don’t really know what happened internally. It’s hard to guess if this group start is at the origin of the structure or the ex-players. The team’s results have been catastrophic since the beginning of the year: 9th in Spring, 9th or 10th in Summer. Under these conditions, we imagine that no one was really satisfied with the season.
But it’s always a bit strange to see a team change its roster completely just before the end of the season and just before the promotion tournament. You can’t help but think of an effect”mercenary“. Is it really fair for the teams coming from the Mastercard Nexus Tower ?
