“NRG Asia is pleased to welcome legendary GAM player Optimus into this legendary year. In preparation for Worlds, we wanted to bring in a veteran player who has had experience abroad and competed in the global arena to better prepare the team both in and out of the game. With the exception of Levi and Kiaya, all of our current players, including the coach, have never competed on the international stage. Also, I heard that Optimus has a huge fan base and I hope we can create a lot of interesting content. I hope GAM, Optimus and the fan community can join Rise As One in this legendary year!”
After a long time, Optimus has returned to GAM Esports with the position of Performance Coach, thus supporting the players and the Training Council both tactically and competitively. GAM members have the most stable mindset going into the upcoming battles.
