Heading into a highly-anticipated upcoming season of ESEA, a new and fully North American roster has announced itself last night; named “Fourth Impact,” (also stylized 4th Impact) the player founded team will compete and work their way up the semi-pro scene at the bottom of the ESEA leagues, joining 40 other teams in the Eastern Conference as it currently stands.
The hype and expectations around this team are huge. Within an hour of their announcement, their tweet racked up over 50 likes and 10 retweets, with many voicing their excitement and wishing the boys luck.
“Peak NA CS, truly a marvelous roster.”
“Expect this team to win”
“Definitely casting this team”
Most of the roster has previously competed in pro play; so with the experience under their belt, they are set to make it far into the playoffs, and realistically, they could win the whole thing. Their only true test will come from the likes of Davenport Ultra, a collegiate team based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, representing the red and black panther of Davenport University.
Fourth Impact, clearly inspired by Third Impact, a North American currently ranked 103rd in the world, will likewise feature 4 Americans and 1 Canadian on their team.
Fourth Impact is:
🇺🇸 Brady “Gallium” Land
🇺🇸 Isaac “cettobin” Sarosi (AWP)
🇺🇸 Noah “1nwd”
🇨🇦 Mark “Vindi” Roethel
🇺🇸 Tyler “classical” Manspeaker
It is still unclear who will take on the In-Game Leader role. Fourth Impact is also yet to announce a coach and is likely to play without one.
