pauLy returns to MDL after a 7 season absence
Giovanni "Fighter" Leo and Daniel "impsta" Whaley are set to compete in Season 28 of ESEA's MDL alongside Julian "jae" Leaveau and Paul "pauLy" Guerboyan. The four players will fill BlackOut's slot in MDL following Alex "aproto" Protopapas departure from the team to join Gorilla Gang, ending BlackOut's attempt to rebuild a roster around him.
Both Fighter and impsta intend to take the season less seriously, playing more for fun following impsta obtaining a degree and starting work in the near future, not to mention impending nuptials. As there will be no Global Challenge to culminate the end of S28, the team will have an easier time of things while teams await the next qualification season.
Regarding the teams future, I get my degree in May and start working this summer so I won't be able to justify spending so much time playing CS for the amount of money involved in MDL, so as of now the plan is to play next season for fun w/ my boy @Fighter2Strong
