HEROIC has revealed that Yasin ‘xfl0ud’ Koç will be placed on the bench, marking the conclusion of the Turk’s six-month period on the starting roster.
The announcement follows shortly after HEROIC’s campaign in the BLAST.tv Austin Major, where the team nearly achieved a Stage 3 qualification but ended up departing from Stage 2 after being defeated by the unexpected challenger, Nemiga.
xfl0ud’s benching signifies the start of a major transformation for HEROIC, who are preparing to bid farewell to Eetu ‘sAw’ Saha and Álvaro ‘SunPayus’ García during the off-season as the pair moves on to G2.
This roster change marks the first shuffle after the team failed to meet the expected results at the BLAST.tv Austin Major.
