Saints rebuild after lackluster ESL Impact League season
After a tough start to the year, not being able to fly Iuliia "sckrafft" Gerasimova to ESL Impact Katowice, needing a stand-in for that competition, losing Paula "paula" Ramanauskas, and dropping Jessica "JKranny" Kranabetter, Saints made some moves in hopes of maintaining on the top steps of the North American women's scene.
The team added two new talents, Daria "daria" Anokhina, and Sophia "eychesdot", but things never seemed to click as they did before. Saints were only able to win two series during ESL Impact League Season 3, and changes were inevitable.
The core has elected to stick together, while the two most recent additions, daria and eychesdot, are out of the team while Cynthia "katalyyst" Sheerajin and Elora "Sinxysinxy" Hughes have joined in their places.
These two players are coming to fill two very important roles, as Sinxysinxy is the new IGL of the team and katalyyst will be the one picking up the AWP role, most probably, after Olga "olya" Kryvulych had to swap to be the big green bearer after paula left.
Saints are hoping to make this iteration of the roster work for the future, and they will have plenty of time to get ready for ESL Impact League Season 4, which will begin in November.
With these changes, Saints are now:
-
Anna "buhnny" Cheung
-
Olga "olya" Kryvulych
-
Iuliia "sckrafft" Gerasimova
-
Cynthia "katalyyst" Sheerajin
-
Elora "Sinxysinxy" Hughes
