With the end of Luke and Reyy’s contracts, Geek Fam now faces a big challenge to strengthen their roster ahead of the ESL Challenge Final Season 5. Luke, who has been a mainstay in the EXP laner position, has officially moved to Bigetron Alpha for MPL ID Season 14.
Apart from that, Reyy, their jungler, is still a big question mark considering he joined on loan from Dewa United Esports in Season 13. The biggest question among fans is who will replace Luke and Reyy.
Information from ESL Indonesia’s Instagram and Tiktok content as well as the roster list on Liquipedia shows that Geek Fam has recruited two new players to face the ESL Challenge Finals. Players seen in the content are Baloyskie, Caderaa, Aboy, Hazle, Gobbs, and Mas4ko.
Hazle has great potential to become the main jungler to replace Reyy. Meanwhile, Gobbs and Mas4ko, who came from Geek Fam Jr and have just won the MDL ID S9, are believed to be playing important roles in the first team. Gobbs, previously known by the nickname Mercy, will likely replace Luke as a core player. By winning MDL twice in a row, Gobbs is considered worthy of getting playing time in MPL.
Mas4ko, who also shone in MDL, will add strength to the gold laner position alongside Caderaa, giving Geek Fam two solid options in that position. It is hoped that healthy competition between Mas4ko and Caderaa can improve the team’s overall performance.
There are still several question marks that need to be answered, such as whether Reyy will return to Dewa United Esports and where Markyyyyy will go. Apart from that, there is no certainty whether the roster revealed at the ESL Challenge Finals will be carried over to MPL ID Season 14.
Geek Fam will likely evaluate their performance in ESL before making a final decision regarding the roster for MPL. Geek Fam faces major challenges with Luke’s departure and Reyy’s possible absence.
However, with the addition of Hazle, Gobbs, and Mas4ko, this team has the potential to still compete at a high level. Performance evaluation at the ESL Challenge Finals will be key in determining the final roster for MPL ID Season 14.
