The decision to change the roster of GAM Esports is part of a long-term strategy aimed at bringing innovation and improving the team’s flexibility. Retaining key players and introducing newcomers has created a strong roster, ready to challenge any opponent.
Mr. TK Nguyen said: “We are fully aware that the roster of players from last year had excellent performances. However, the almost complete change in roster is part of a long-term strategy to bring a fresh perspective and enhance creativity in our gameplay. We aim to build a team not only based on individual skills but also on harmony and the ability to adapt to various tactics.
Retaining Kiaya and Levi, two pillars of the team, help us maintain the stability and necessary experience. They have demonstrated their capabilities and leadership qualities, fostering quick connection and integration among new members. Although there may not be much time for training and coordination, we believe that with the guidance of Kiaya and Levi, along with the potential of the newcomers, the team will quickly find the necessary synergy.
This strategy also aims to create internal competition, encouraging players to continuously strive for improvement and self-development. We have invested heavily in training and psychological support, helping new players adapt quickly and unleash their full potential.
While this may be a risky decision, we believe that these changes will bring breakthroughs and sustainable success in the future. Innovation and adaptability are crucial factors for maintaining and enhancing GAM Esports’ position in the fiercely competitive esports industry.”
