High Coast finalize RCF loan; add motm on trial
High Coast have announced the finalization of Rodrigo "RCF" Figueiredo's loan from Yeah and the addition of Ian "motm" Hardy on trial. The announcement comes after the duo have been playing for High Coast in place of Ramal "Rampage" Silva and Jonathan "djay" Dallal since January and March, respectively. Dust2.us know that Rampage was released in February while djay has been released today.
motm found his way to High Coast after being sidelined on Extra Salt in favor of Edgar "MarKE" Maldonado, ending his nearly two-year involvement with the ATK/Cloud9/Extra Salt core. Since joining High Coast, motm has been on a strong show of form, putting up a 1.12 rating over 35 maps.
This move reunites motm with Josh "PwnAlone" Pigue, Ben "ben1337" Smith, and Joseph "Muenster" Lima, with the quartet notably attending ESEA MDL Season 31 Global Challenge together as Party Astronauts.
With these additions, High Coast are now:
- Josh "PwnAlone" Pigue
- Ben "ben1337" Smith
- Brandon "bew" Roberts (Loan)
- Rodrigo "RCF" Figueiredo (Loan)
- Ian "motm" Hardy (Trial)
- Joseph "Muenster" Lima (Coach)
High Coast's next outing will see them take on Rebirth in their opening series of VENN Invitational tomorrow at 4:15 PM EDT.
