Paradigm6 Battalion 1944 Roster Shuffle

As we prepare our audience for the upcoming wave of Battalion 1944 competition with interviews and discursive content, players are busy grinding at an incredible rate and organisations are still making up their minds regarding their rosters for the title. One such example is Paradigm6, who released a statement about their team on the 16th of February here. Here's what you need to know. 

Starting with the changes to the first team, it seems that Dominic ‘Got1ke’ Galea and Owen ‘SwATT’ Pace have decided to step down to reserve roles due to a lack of occupation, having work commitments holding them back. It's undeniably respectable that the two players do such a thing in order to not weigh down their team, lots of respect right here. 

So, with this, one may easily deduce that some new names are aboard the first team. Although allegedly 'new', they are familiar faces. The first replacement is in the form of Kyle ‘crisis’ or 'kajl' Galea, there being instances where he's used either gamertag, and he'll be joining the team from the side of dOUBTFUL. With his former team, Kyle managed to achieve podium finishes in the two largest events of last year, placing 2nd at the MCS#3 and 3rd at the MESF 2017 - reputable victories to which he played a big part.

However, he's been around far longer than that, having a rich history in COD2. This is why his name is so familiar to Paradigm6, as he formed part of the historical FuryGaming squad; winning our GamersLAN in 2012 and the KONNEKT MESF 2014 amongst other top 3 finishes. The veteran will be more than comfortable with Battalion 1944 in his hands. 

The other player brought in to fill in the final hole is Got1ke's brother, Brady ‘xixxi’ Galea, who will be joining the first squad from HEQ GAMING. Xixxi also played under the FuryGaming banner multiple times making these two additions predictable. Before his current position, he was indeed a part of the Overwatch roster but due to the nature of COD2 (5v5), he participated with HEQ GAMING while always under Paradigm6. 

The new roster consists of:

• Jeffrey ‘JeFf’ Spiteri
•  Daniel ‘sou1ex’ Cassar
•  Etienne ‘bullz’ Bonavia
•  Kyle ‘crisis’ Galea
•  Brady ‘xixxi’ Galea
• Bernard ‘B3rRij’ Pace

We wish Paradigm6 the best for the coming year of competition.
