With the transfer season officially closed we spoke to the Team Captain of PENTA Sports, Panix, and Mock-it Esports' newest player, BakaBryan, to discuss the changes to their rosters.
Summary of Changes:
Mock-it - Voy/Alive out, Hungry/SirBoss in, roster picked up by PENTA Sports OrgLess - AceeZ out, BakaBryan in, roster picked up by Mock-it Esports
Panix:
Firstly, with the pickup of these two new players Mock-it Esports has gone from majority French to a mixed-French/German/Hungarian team; has any communication issues came up and if so how have you dealt with them?
Why did your team decide on removing Alive and Voy from the team in particular?

What factors led you to decide on Hungry and SirBoss to pick up over other, arguably more experienced players such as PARAA or Falko?
Other than losing two players, FiskeR, your coach, also left your roster. Why did this happen and are you looking for a new coach for the remainder of the season?
"I inform you that I have stopped my collaboration with the players of the Pro League team of mock-it from today. So I still have to think about my future as a player or coach. Wait and see..."
Are you happy with how your team performed during DreamHack Montreal over the weekend?

BakaBryan:
Firstly can you introduce yourself to those unfamiliar with your history in the game?
How did you originally get into Siege as a player?
Going straight into Pro League with such limited experience is almost unheard of recently, why do you think you were picked up specifically?
In OrgLess you are replacing one of the best fraggers in R6, AceeZ, do you feel this adds any extra pressure on you?

Finally, what has been your career highlight in Siege so far?
We’ll be able to see Mock-it Esports’ (ex-OrgLess) and PENTA Sports’ (ex-Mock-it Esports) new lineup in action on Thursday when Pro League restarts which you can watch on the usual rainbow6 Twitch account.
