Wesley “hardzao” Lopes, one of the team's key players, was moved to the reserves. This decision came as a surprise to many fans and raised many questions.
Searching for a new star
This is not the first time RED Canids are facing changes in the lineup. It also became known that the team was in talks with Ricardo “boltz” Prass, who has been in the center of their attention for a long time. However, despite reaching the stage of discussing the cost, the deal did not take place. In addition, Lucas “lucaozy” Neves was on the team's interest list, but he is not their current target.
The RED Canids lineup now looks like this:
- Carlos "venomzera" Eduardo
- David "dav1deuS" Tapia
- Gabriel "nython" Lino
- Marcelo "coldzera" David
