Selfless drops Overwatch Squad and Surrenders Organisation
Tuesday 11th July 2017, 03:46 | written by: Gabriel SciberrasAfter an underwhelming short lifespan, the young North American esports organisation is up for grabs. The company put its finger in a few pies, getting involved in CS: GO, Rocket League, Super Smash Bros., Killer Instinct and Overwatch. Due to the recent announcement, the active Overwatch squad has been dismissed as individuals.
Buying the brand of ‘Selfless’ does not entitle one to the team and they will have to start from scratch. The players themselves are victims to the recent spread of disbandment across the Overwatch scene and finding a team could be troublesome. No details were revealed whether anyone has already found a new squad or remains in free agency. Below are a few words from Rattacasa, Selfless’ owner of the Overwatch roster;
"With many other organizations releasing their rosters, and given talks we've had with those in the space, we were not able to sell our team as a whole to any other organization. We absolutely expect to see our players competing in the upcoming Overwatch League, albeit with different logos."
Namely, the seven players are “Carpe”, “sinatraa”, “emongg”, “Midnight”, “Kresnik”, “Michael3D” and “dhaK”. These names will probably be seen spread across the scene under new banners. Apart from Overwatch, all Rocket League players have been sold, Smash Melee pros have been released and Killer Instinct player will also find his own way. If you’re wondering about the CS: GO team, that was dismissed last April.
All this because for Selfeless there have been “opportunities that have arisen in the past few months." Soon enough, we’ll find out what these opportunities were.
