arcade and Grizz return on regain

On January 2nd, Andrew "dvrk" Brunken confirmed to Dust2.us that John "arcade" Rogel and Adam "Grizz" Golden had joined the orgless squad on January 1st, seeing the team complete their roster and add an experienced duo ahead of the start of ESEA Advanced Season 51. The change in regain's ranks also saw Alexander "sasha" Burke leave the team, with the player going on to join InControl.

dvrk told Dust2.us that regain decided to part ways with sasha to move into a different direction, with arcade set to take over IGL duties on the ESEA Advanced lineup. They previously briefly played with the regain core from August to September 2024 under DETONATE before the team was dropped by the organization and arcade went on a short hiatus from competition.

Grizz was in a similar boat as the former Party Astronauts and Wildcard player had been inactive since September 2024 before recently being returning to action at Fragadelphia 18 with the ROOMBA PEEK mixteam.

The two incoming players will offer a significant boost in experience as both have multiple seasons of ESL Challenger League experience. This will be especially important for regain this season as a top-four finish in ESEA Advanced will grant a direct spot into ESL Challenger League Season 50.

regain are now:

• Eric "Zucar" Zuccaro

• Halen "Halen" Lang

• Andrew "dvrk" Brunken

• John "arcade" Rogel

• Adam "Grizz" Golden

ESEA Advanced Season 52 is set to start on January 13th.
