Rogue to move forward without Taroco

As the longest standing member of the Rogue lineup, Alexandre "Taroco." Reis Pedrogam did not re-sign with the organization, leaving his teammates Jirair "Gyro." Papazian and Christopher "Aqua." Campbell in search of a new third player. As it stands, Nick "Chronic" Iwanski is the favorite to complete the roster.

After signing the North American prodigy Aqua in January, Rogue have performed better in RLCS qualifiers, but the team have struggled to do well in the top eight in Regional Events. They couldn’t seem to reach the level of the top teams in NA, but a roster change might be their push to bridge that gap.

At the moment, Rogue’s candidate for taking Taroco’s place is Chronic, another young American player who has gotten some experience with Upper90 Esports and Stromboli, but has yet to sign to a big organization like Rogue. This could be his chance to support RLCS veteran Gyro and the promising Aqua to show his form in RLCS 2022-2023.
