Infamous bring on wippie as backup

After an impressive stand-in performance with the team, the young Russian has been brought on as an insurance policy.

Maxim "wippie" Shepelev has joined Infamous' MDL roster,  with Dust2.us being informed that the addition is due to the fact that Dylan "RIKO" Sabin-Arnce is currently on vacation, and will not return in time for the teams upcoming match on March 4th.

wippie is no stranger to filling in for the former Denial member, as he previously did so in the final ECS Season 7 Challenger Cup qualifier. In the final match the team played, he put up a 1.56 rating in a three map thriller against Cyclone, netting Infamous a spot in the Challenger Cup.

wippie has sat this ESEA season out until now, but was a huge contributor for blitz in Season 29, where they finished in 7-8th.

The Infamous roster is now:

  • United States Josh "JoshRT" Lee
  • United States Mike "real_bM" Desanto
  • United States Brendan "Bwills" Williams
  • United States Erick "Xeppaa" Bach
  • United States Dylan "RIKO" Sabin-Arnce
  • Maxim "wippie" Shepelev (Backup)

Infamous are currently 5-6 in MDL, which sees them outside of a playoff position. It is expected that wippie will play the team's next match against Forty Six and 2.
