After a rather successful ending of the latter half of 2020 together with snatchie and dycha, everything went downhill and we had a horrible season in 2021 with our German lineup with some glimmers of hope, but we couldn’t quite make it.
Thus our coach, enkay J, decided that they want to try something new and want a fresh start after the summer break, denis told on Thursday.
denis have previously represented strong teams as BIG and mousesports in his career, playing alongside the likes of Nikola “NiKo” Kovac, Chris “chrisJ” de Jong, and Johannes “tabseN” Wodarz. The German player says on Twitter that his future is uncertain.
Sprout are now:
Timo “Spiidi” Richter
Josef “faveN” Baumann
Marko “kressy” Đorđević
Fritz “slaxz-” Dietrich
Denis “denis” Howell (Benched)
