Ismail “refrezh” Ali’s days as a Heroic member has come to an end with the Norwegian-based organization announcing his departure this Saturday. The 24-year-old rifler joined the Casper “cadiaN” Møller-led team in February last year arriving from MAD Lions.
The news about refrezh’s exit comes only days after a report from TV 2 Sport stating that Heroic is pursuing Copenhagen Flames’ Jakob “Jabbi” Nygaard.
Almost 500 days in the Heroic jersey. What a ride it’s been!
It has been an honor to have such a great professional with us. We wish you all the best in the future, @refrezhCS!
Thank you!❤️❤️

Heroic explains the decision:
– Since the beginning of this 5-man roster, we have always believed that the team were capable of great things. However, during the last year Heroic has been highly competitive in the major tournaments but has struggled to take that final last step. Therefore, despite all the qualities of refrezh, we have decided that it was time to try something new, Heroic wrote in a statement.
Furthermore Heroic informed that refrezh will continue to be under contract with the organization.
