Velocity Gaming separates from three members of lineup

Velocity Gaming announced the departure of three members from its VALORANT lineup after the team had disappointing results in the VCL 2023: South Asia Split 2.

While the team had a roster with three international players that undoubtedly placed them as tournament favorites, the team failed to make it out of the group stage. As a result, the organization has decided to let go of these three international stars.

Velocity Gaming parted ways with three members of the lineup

After a disappointing start to the season, Velocity Gaming announced the departure of David “Dav” Miljanić, Adam “ec1s” Eccles, and Domagoj “Doma” Fancev, who were two players and the team’s coach.

As we see in the official statement from the organization, Velocity Gaming thanks and wishes good luck in the future to Doma, Dav, and ec1s.

Doma (Croatia) and ec1s (UK) were the players who took all the spotlight in the VCL2023: South Asia Split 2, as they are well-known players in the VALORANT scene. However, the team’s results did not meet the expectations raised and have now been released.

On the other hand, Dav, the Head Coach of the team, was with the team since September 2022 and was let go due to the clean slate the organization is having for the rest of the season. So, for now, Velocity Gaming has not decided to shed any of its Indian players, but there is no doubt that their futures with the team are not secure.

Ec1s thanks India on his farewell

British player ec1s thanked India, his teammates, and the Velocity Gaming staff for giving him a “unique experience” as a professional at VALORANT.

On his Twitter account, ec1s said he thanked his teammates for their trust and, above all, for working hard day in and day out. He also thanked everyone in the organization for making him feel at home and ended with a few words of satisfaction for the atmosphere of the fans, which, according to ec1s, he had never seen in esports.

Then, he talked about his future, which he mentioned that, so far, is uncertain. However, the player likely wants to return to Europe to compete in the Challenger leagues in the region.

On the other hand, Dav also took a moment to thank Velocity Gaming and its owner, Manoj “SENTINEL” Kasyap, for giving him a chance in this project and, above all, for believing in him.

Doma, for his part, did not make any official statement after his departure from the team was announced. While SENTINEL clarified that the team’s future will be decided soon, and everything will be informed in due course.

Finally, after the departure of the two players and the team’s Head Coach, Velocity Gaming’s lineup is as follows:

• Anuj “Amaterasu” Sharma
• Sagnik “Hellff” Roy
• Debanjan “DEATHMAKER” Das
• Karan “Excali” Mhaswadka
