Report: ATK to replace GODSENT in ESEA Premier Season 39
Dust2.us has confirmed with sources close to the situation that GODSENT have elected to opt out of playing ESEA Premier Season 39 as they plan on finishing the year in Europe.
As a result, ATK have been called up to ESEA Premier Season 39 while Valors is set to now play ESEA Premier Season 38 Relegation as the next eligible squad from ESEA Advanced Season 38 playoffs.
GODSENT qualified to ESEA Premier Season 39 after a flawless Advanced season that saw them take down ATK 3-0 in the finals. Despite this, GODSENT are set to finish the year in Europe following PGL Stockholm 2021.
While their decision deprives the division of the top 30 squad, it presents an opportunity for another North American lineup to make their way into Premier as Valors are now set to fight for a spot.
As a result of this change, ESEA have changed the Relegation bracket although they are yet to publicly confirm ATK's promotion.
The ESEA Premier Season 38 Relegation bracket now looks as follows:
 Mythic |
vs.  Valors |
| Big Chillin |
vs. Detonate |
| Third Impact |
vs. Northern Forces |
| Synthetic |
vs. Eros |
Dust2.us reached out to ESEA and ESL for comment but did not recieve a reply at the time of publication.
