Team EnVyUs: The Roster Nobody Wanted Part 1


Over time teams change no matter what you are talking about. High school sports getting upcoming freshman as the seniors graduate. Or a professional baseball pitcher is released from the Red Sox because he wasn't able to play to their expectations. The same thing happens in the eSport world of Call of Duty. Players are released, players are picked up and players retire. It's all the same, but it involves a video game.

Only 5 teams can say that they made it to the Grand Finals of a worldwide $1 Million tournament. With it being one of their greatest accomplishments of all time, only 1 team has appeared their twice. With the turbulent road to Call of Duty Champs, it made nV's 2nd place finishing even better. 

UMG PHILADELPHIA

With the addition of pro player Goonjar, nV had high hopes going into UMG Philadelphia. But, being sent into a rocketing tail spin they took a 9th-12th place finishing. 

ROSTER CHANGES

A couple days after UMG Philly had taken place. Pro Player Seth "Scumpii" Abner had left OpTic Gaming to join Team EnVyus, forcing pro player Rambo to become the new coach for nV. With the team of Scumpii, Proofy, Goonjar, and Merk, it only lasted a few weeks before Scump realized that he had made a mistake in leaving OpTic. Thus returning to OpTic Gaming. 
The day after Scumpii announced his release, nV player Proofy decided to test the waters and become a free agent. Making nV short 2 players. To fill in spots EnVy then refilled Scumpii's position with the return of Rambo and picked up Studyy off of the Curse New York lineup. Making the team Merk, Rambo, Studyy and Goonjar. However, a couple days later once again, Goonjar then decided that he was going to re-join Team Kaliber leaving the 4th spot on Team EnVy empty. Not wasting anytime, they quickly jumper to picking up Nameless who was a free agent with only 9 days to practice before the Online Qualifier for CoD Champs. Leaving EnVy's squad to consist of Rambo, Merk, Nameless, and Studyy.
