ALGS Split 2 Mid-Season Rostermania in NA

The North American ALGS scene has witnessed a flurry of mid-season roster changes over the past week, significantly altering the landscape of the competition. These adjustments come as teams strive to find the optimal lineups to enhance their chances in the ongoing season. Here are some of the most notable changes.

One of the biggest changes involves iiTzTimmy, who left Disguised (DSG) to replace Emtee on the Moist roster. This high-profile move aims to bolster Moist’s performance as they seek to climb the standings. In response, DSG has to adapt quickly; just last night, it was spotted that Xenial was seen playing scrims with Dezignful and Enemy and he was officially added to the ALGS Battlfy roster.

Additionally, earlier in the week, WEAVE surprised many by dropping Shini despite a decent performance in the first two matchdays. The team swiftly moved to announce that Carter from EternalEC would be joining their ranks.

This change leaves EternalEC, now composed of Coce and Danmantic, in search of a new third player. Rumors are circulating that veteran controller player Pandxrz might fill this vacancy as he was seen scrimming with this roster.

Additionally, the newly formed Native Gaming roster faced its own changeup. Recently, Native signed veteran IGL Rkn and Mclovin to play alongside Rambeau. However, Mclovin announced his departure via Twitter this morning, citing differing opinions and visions for the game’s playstyle as the reason. Mclovin is now seeking a new team within the pro league or the Challenger Circuit (CC).

LFT for PL/possibly CC left @NativeGaming on good terms just didn’t see the game the same way and had very different opinions which happens wish them the best of luck.

Snip3down then took to Twitter to confirm that he would be filling the role for Native and playing in pro league with them this upcoming weekend. Stating that he is “excited to play with a team that aligns with the rosters I’ve had the most success with in the past”.
