Rocket complete roster with ayy
Last night, Rocket completed their roster with the addition of FLUFFY AIMERS' coach Ahmed "ayy" Mahmoud. The move sees ayy leave his coaching role with the ESL Challenger League team after only 13 days with the team, likely meaning he didn't very little, if any, work with the team. ayy joins Rocket as a replacement for Emerson "R2D2J" L. after he left Rocket on December 18th after the team was relegated from ECL.
However, with EG and ex-Eros White both unlikely to field squads in ECL S47, Rocket's outlook for a return to ECL has improved greatly, with Damian "droid" Boulware's team being the next in line to be called up to fill any vacancies.
ayy told Dust2.us that he made the decision to join Rocket due to receiving an offer from the team and preferring playing over coaching, especially with the lack of an in-game coach slot in CS2.
With ayy, Rocket are now:
-
Christopher "aleph" Froden
-
Matthew "nero" Seymour
-
Damian "droid" Boulware
-
Nelvin "nooz" Gonzalez
-
Ahmed "ayy" Mahmoud
