Official: Imperial complete their roster
Imperial have officially announced the replacements for Gabriel "FalleN" Toledo and Marcelo "chelo" Cespedes after the two departed for FURIA. Today, Henrique "HEN1" Teles and João "felps" Vasconcellos were unveiled as the newest members of the organization.
Imperial has to act fast on bringing both HEN1 and felps up to speed as they will be heading to IEM Cologne 2023 in just two weeks. Taking part in the grueling Play-In portion, the team is already preparing a 10-day bootcamp prior to the event with the hope of making it to the proper group stage.
The team does not want to copy fellow Brazilian organization FURIA's infamous Play-In performance at IEM Katowice 2023 where they lost to BIG and IHC en route to exiting in 12th-16th place.
HEN1 and felps already have some experience with members of the squad, as Ricardo "boltz" Prass played with the two during their time on Tempo Storm and coach Rafael "zakk" Fernandes joined the trio later on in Immortals and Luminosity.
Imperial's full lineup is:
-
Ricardo "boltz" Prass -
Vinicius "VINI" Figueiredo
-
Jhonatan "JOTA" Wilian
-
Henrique "HEN1" Teles
-
João "felps" Vasconcellos
-
Rafael "zakk" Fernandes (Coach)
