The roster of Dylan Henderson, Bradley "Wuskin" Marshall, twin brother Matty "Skrapz" Marshall, Jordan "Jurd" Crowley and Rhys "Rated" Price will be the starting line-up for the Royal Ravens when the CDL officially begins at the beginning of 2020.

In a press release, ReKTGlobal revealed some of the details in regards to where the team name was derived from:

The team name, London Royal Ravens, stems from the legend of the Tower ravens. It is said that the kingdom and the Tower of London will fall if the six resident ravens ever leave the fortress. There are seven ravens at the Tower today – the required six and one to spare. Charles II is thought to have been the first to insist that the ravens of the Tower be protected after he was warned that the crown and the Tower itself would fall if they left.

The London Royal Ravens represent the guardians of London. In remaining true to the legend, the Royal Ravens will protect their crown by ensuring the kingdom doesn’t fall and that they bring the championship title back to the homeland.
