The signing of kyxsan finishes a series of targeted acquisitions for Aurora. The organization previously secured Jimi “Jimpphat” Salo and head coach Ashley “ash” Battye. This incoming trio replaces outgoing players Engin “MAJ3R” Küpeli and Caner “soulfly” Kesici, alongside former coach Sezgin “Fabre” Kalaycı.
