MarKE confirmed as new Extra Salt player
The North American organization has announced its newest signing
Extra Salt have just announced their newest signing. The fifth player to finalize their roster is confirmed to be Mexican Edgar "MarKE" Maldonado. After benching Ian "motm" Hardy in late February, the team needed a fifth member in order to compete. Whilst it had been rumored that the organization was eying out "MarKE" it has now been officially confirmed on their Twitter page.
The 22-year-old Mexican in "MarKE" has been sat on the sidelines since his former team Chaos fell apart. With two of his former teammates leaving Counter-Strike to compete at Valorant, "Xeppaa" joining for Cloud9 and "Jonji" forming a new roster at Bad News Bears, "MarKE" was the only player waiting to start a new journey elsewhere.
"MarKE" now gets the chance to prove himself and re-enter the professional Counter-Strike scene at his new club Extra Salt. His debut is set to be later today, as Extra Salt faces Triumph at 23:00 (CET).
