It seems the next EU season of ESEA’s Mountain Dew League will have some newcomers. An org by the name of Kingsmen has announced on Twitter that they will be competing in the EU Mountain Dew League, which starts on January 16th.

The team is comprised of two former CAZ eSports players, two newbies, as well as the #1 Rank S EU player on ESEA. The two CAZ players, Ben “r0m” Smith and Owen “smooya” Butterfield, left the org a month after they placed first at the Pantamera 3.0 Qualifier in June. Akam “Pishila” Sirwan is the #1 Rank S ESEA player in Europe, ranking higher than EnVyUs’s Dan “apEX” Madesclaire and Nathan “NBK” Schmitt.
The other two players, Ralfs “High Life” Abol and Emre “Tarziiq” Gurel are new to big competitions, so we will have to wait and see how they perform.
The team’s full roster is as follows:
- Ralfs “High Life” Abol
- Akam “Pishila” Sirwan
- Ben “r0m” Smith
- Owen “smooya” Butterfield
- Emre “Tarziiq” Gurel
