Yerrow joins SHC, wewillfailer steps down
The rumours circulating around the pro scene turned out to be true. Bram 'Wewillfailer' De Winter is stepping down from the main roster of Supa Hot Crew due to inability to fully commit to the game. Given that De Winter had to skip week 5 of the EU LCS due to exams, a British support - Raymond 'Yerrow' Tsang, filled in for the Crew.
Raymond is no stranger to the competitive scene and high level of play given his Challenger rating and previous stints in Dignitas.UK and constantly participating in the Multiplay tournament series. In fact, British jungler Imapler was also part of that line-up.
The team manager of Supa Hot Crew, Michael Shorr released the following statement:
So actually I had another, shorter statement prepared but due to the misinformed ''leak'' that esports heaven released without having a proper insight I made the decision to rewrite it and give some more details on the situation as we believe what they wrote is not fair towards ‘wewillfailer.’
Before, during and after the LCS event in London the team and I stayed in close contact to Bram who supported us all the way. When we came back he approached me and talked about his personal situation and said he would rather step back from LCS but would like still to be involved in the game. At this point we decided to approach Yerrow to ask him to play with us for at least another week so we have time to actually consider our options. I want to explicitly state that the replacement of Bram had nothing to do with his attitude. He came to us at a time where we needed a leader and he filled that role perfectly. The influence he brings along with his game knowledge and mechanical skill was obvious in the weeks he played for us. The only reason why we decided to take actions was that he cannot commit as much as both parties wanted. Wewillfailer stated that he is considering taking a coach or managing role in the future. In both those fields he could help others with his game knowledge and perfect work attitude.
Everyone in SHC enjoyed the time with Wewillfailer and we appreciate his honesty about the situation. I personally wish him only the best and hope he can help others with his strengths. On the other hand we are also very happy that with Raymond 'Yerrow' Tsang we could find one of the most talented Support Players currently available to fill this huge spot that Wewillfailer left. We will play with him for the next week and will decide finally after that week, but at this point he is our first choice and he already proved in London that he can be one of the best Supports in EU.
