Halen steps down from ASPYRE

On August 8th Halen "Halen" Lang announced his departure from ASPYRE, seeing the Canadian player leave the lineup shortly after they signed for ASPYRE and close to a year after the formation of the regain roster. It is the first roster change for the team since the departure of coach Joshua "m1cks" Micks in late June.

In a comment to Dust2.us Halen told the publication that he made the decision to leave ASPYRE after feeling that it was time for a change and that things weren't working out after close to a year playing with the same quintet. Importantly, Halen said there was no bad blood between himself and his former teammates and that he still plans on helping them in ESL Challenger League Season 50 Cup #1 where a roster lock has taken effect.

ASPYRE will now need to find a long-term replacement for Halen. The team are set to field Mark "marekiew" Petrov for the Dust2.us Eagle Masters Series #3, although it remains to be seen if he will become a permanent addition.

ASPYRE are now:

• Eric "Zucar" Zuccaro

• Andrew "dvrk" Brunken

• Alexander "sasha" Burke

• Kyryl "Fuzenko" Kotov

Following his departure from ASPYRE, Halen has already found a new team in the form of mouse, joining the orgless squad yesterday in place of duhpe. mouse consists of some familiar like Dylan "DYLAN" Frivalt and Sam "milo" Cash who previously played for InControl.

With Halen, mouse are now:

• Dylan "DYLAN" Frivalt
