XRAVEL had one of the more successful ESEA seasons out of the UK teams, topping Main to give them the number one seed heading into playoffs for a shot at Advanced. However, with the dust settling on their failure to convert their regular season form into a successful playoff berth, they have decided to switch things up.
The team have decided to drop Maciej “m1ster” Rudzki in favour of bringing in former-Legates rifler Sean “Atrox” Greene. The team have already proved this could be a smart upgrade, with the new XRAVEL squad qualifying for the main ESL Premiership Autumn tournament after a smooth run through the relegation bracket.
WELCOME HOME ATROX! 🫡 🇮🇪
We're so excited to announce @Atrox_cs has joined our CS:GO roster filling the team's 5th spot.
We'd like to thank @LegatesEsports for the smooth transfer, and give them best of luck going forward.#EZ4XRVL #XRAVELFAM pic.twitter.com/XarFq3FPOp

Whether or not this upgrade can bear fruit in the main tournament will be a different story, with top UK teams such as Into The Breach, Endpoint and 1PIN in attendance it will be a tough task for the team. However, posting such a positive result with such little time together as a roster is certainly a good sign.
XRAVEL will now be:
Sean “Atrox” Greene
Mohamad “Ducky” Nourelden
Euan “synergii” Wilson
William “wfn” Maskrey
Rasmus “zodi” Frølich
Dan “papp” Hart (Coach)
