Atlanta Reign
Even more discreet than Dallas, Atlanta has so far made only one change: the departure of Casores from its coaching staff.
The changes are starting for Atlanta Reign.
- FunnyAstro leaves the team where he was in two way to go to Philadelphia Fusion
- Hawk is moving up from the academic team to Atlanta Reign
- Gator moves from a two-way contract to an exclusive contract with the Overwatch League.
Two departures have recently taken place. NLaaeR, the Russian player and DACO, Korean, are both free agents.
Coming from the Korea contenders in the GC Busan WAVE team that regularly finishes between 5th and 8th place, discover Edison, who will be flex DPS at Atlanta Reign!
If you didn't know him, next season will be an opportunity to discover an excellent player at Atlanta Reign, we named SharP! He was part of Team Envy, which won the Contenders NA West 2019 S2! The DPS, currently 17 years old, will be available for the beginning of next season, his birthday being in December.
A new coach joins Atlanta: Mentalist! Coming directly from GC Busan Wave where he was head coach, his team had finished 5-6th in Contenders Korea at the same level as Fusion University.
Florida Mayhem
Despite a complete roster change, Florida Mayhem was unable to do any better than in the inaugural season. The departure of HaGoPeun, RaiN, xepheR, DPI and Swon and of Coach KH1 and Manager Bearhands —replaced by yeHHH — could change the situation for next season.
New changes are taking place on the coaching staff side Florida Mayhem has decided to recruit Kuki, former OWL player and more recently coach at Runaway with whom he won the Contenders Korea, as well as DOX, a former member of MVP Space.
Houston Outlaws
Houston sees the departure of two of its coaches, TaiRong and HyunWoo. Only Clockwork remains as coach of the team. There is no doubt that they will recruit new members later.
Houston welcomes Harsha, who becomes the team's Head Coach. He was the assistant coach of the Vancouver Titans.
ArHan leaves the team and is now a free agent!
Hydration leaves the Gladiators and joins Houston Outlaws.
Houston's getting Blasé from Boston Uprising! He will be able to assist Hydration who recently arrived from LA Gladiator
Dream joins the team as an assistant coach. He was head-coach of the Toronto Defiant Academic Contenders team: Montreal Rebellion, before that.
A new change for the Outlaws with the departure of Bani! After two years and two selection with the Canadian national team, the Houston team's support becomes free agent.
Two big arrivals have taken place at Houston! The team, composed mostly of American players, will now be a little more mixed, with Rapel, former Vancouver Titans, and MekO from New York Excelsior. Respectively off-heal and off-tank, they will surely give a boost to the team that needed it!
Philadelphia Fusion
Former Head Coach of the team, Kirby had become Director of Overwatch Operations for Philadelphia Fusion. The team has not yet made any official announcements, and Kirby himself has tweeted about his situation.
Washington Justice
We can't say that Washington Justice was doing well on the GOATS compo — remaining at the bottom of the leaderboard during the first three stages. Last stage was a redemption for them since they won three times more matches than in the first three stages together — finishing 4th in the stage standings with six victories and only one defeat.
To get a fresh start next season, the entire coaching staff has been replaced. Even the genius Wizardhyeong won't stay. For the moment the team is without coaches, but it will have plenty of time to find new ones before the beginning of Season 3.
Four Korean players, Ado, Hyeonu, Janus and Sansam, are leaving Washington Justice — rebuilding a more cosmopolitan roster.
There is a new change but it's a recruitment this time! John Galt becomes Head Coach of the team for Season 3. He is a coach from Singapore who has worked for Los Angeles Gladiators and is a member of the Singapore team committee this year.
