Listele RMR blocate: Snax, Lekr0, fox, olofmeister listați ca înlocuitori

ESL are revealed the rosters that have been submitted for the Regional Major Ranking tournaments, which have been locked in since September 8th, allowing insight into teams’ substitute players.

Academy players, benched members, as well as veterans such as Jonas „⁠Lekr0⁠” Olofsson, Ricardo „vulpe” Pacheco, și Olof „⁠Olofmeister⁠“ Kajbjer can be found on the roster sheets. A name that jumps off the list is Janusz „NaSnax⁠” Pogorzelski, who impressed in his stand-in stint with ENCE at IEM Dallas, but is a sub for Vitalitate — not the Finnish organization he represented in June.

If Eetu „⁠SAw⁠” Saha‘s squad needs a stand-in for the RMR, they won’t be turning to loaned out Olek „⁠Hades⁠” Miskiewicz either, but towards their 20-year-old academy player Henri „HENU” Ylilehto. The same strategy was employed by quite a few teams including Astralis, Cloud9, BIG, Natus Vincere, Ninja în pijamale și OG, who listed players from their secondary squads.

The importance of a good substitute was highlighted by Kristian „⁠K0nfig⁠” Wienecke‘s injury, which sees the Danish star miss out on the qualifier and Astralis with an uphill battle, trying to qualify for the IEM Rio Major with Talentul Astralis player Mikel „MistR” Thomsen.

It comes as no surprise to see Faze pus jos olofmeister as their backup, but seeing his countryman Lekr0 as G2‘s reserve player will certainly raise some eyebrows. The 29-year-old has been competitively inactive since April, when Dignitas failed to advance from the RMR and subsequently disbanded the team.

În mod similar, 00NAȚIUNE have listed 35-year-old vulpe as their substitute, the player that helped Epitacio „⁠TACO⁠” de Melo și Marcelo „⁠Coldzera⁠” David make the semi-final of the ELEAGUE 2017 Major as a temporary replacement for Lincoln „⁠Fnx⁠” Lau.

Lucas „⁠Lucky⁠” Chastang, Jayson „⁠Kyojin⁠” Nguyen van, Aurimas „⁠Bymas⁠“ Piper, și Timur „⁠Buster⁠” Tulepov are signed up as substitutes for organizations they are benched from, while former North om Nicklas „⁠Gade⁠” Gade pot fi găsite pe Eroic‘s team list.

A number of teams have not listed a substitute, which means they will be forced to use their coach as a stand-in in case of an emergency. The most prominent team to not list a sixth player is Lichid, whose coach Damian „⁠Daps⁠” Steele would come in as a player if needed.
