riku steals into Thunder Logic; Panderz out
Chris "riku" Piasecki has announced that he has joined Thunder Logic, with the team's ESEA page confirming that it is Justin "Panderz" Kim making way for him.
riku spent ESEA Season 29 with Hentai Hooligans, who ended up in 9-16th place in Advanced playoffs after falling to eventual MDL promotees Final Feature.
With riku's departure, only Carlos "maazy" Bandle remains on the Hentai Hooligans roster, with Jordan "jitter" Ruggiero and and Jeremy "Mundle" King rekindling the Hysteria name.
Both riku and Panderz attended the N3rd Street Gamers Eastern Conference Championship, with Thunder Logic finishing ahead of riku's The Tourists. However, despite Thunder Logic's better placing, Panderz struggled on LAN with a 0.86 rating, whereas riku flourished with a 1.09.
Thunder Logic's roster is now:
- Adam "Ange" Milian
- Chris "Slash" Petersen
- Cameron "Skelly" Thomson
- Ramal "Rampage" Silva
- Chris "riku" Piasecki
ESEA Season 30 is set to begin on January 14th, with Thunder Logic looking to make their way further than their Round of 16 finish in Advanced playoffs last season.
