Team captain Omal ‘ROACH’ Prabudhdha had the following to say about their recruitment –

We are really happy to represent myRevenge moving forward. I am very happy that our talent got the recognition it deserved and we got signed by this organisation. I will make sure that the team and I will take full advantage of this opportunity and showcase our talent and make ourselves and the country proud. We are very excited about being the first Sri Lankan team to be representing a foreign entity.

We wish our boys the best of luck, with the entire Sri Lankan Esports community’s support behind you.
