Mysi is perhaps the name that will be least familiar to Apex Legends fans. He is a relative newcomer to the ALGS competitive circuit. Debuting in late 2022, he had his major breakthrough with GoNext in the ALGS 2023 Last Chance Qualifier. His LAN debut came at the subsequent ALGS Championship.
The 19-year-old from Finland is one of a new wave of talented controller fraggers. The support of an organisation like Blacklist International should help him, and his teammates, arrive at the Esports World Cup and ALGS Split 2 Pro League with the support and resources they need to be successful.
This signing is also a great moment for coach, tur0gh. The Brazilian chose to seek out a new team in the EMEA Region. Additionally, without an organisation, he had to crowdfund his way to the ALGS Split 1 Playoffs. He got support from all kinds of figures in the community including HisWattson.
Now, his resilience, talent and dedication to a career in Apex Legends has paid off. He will no longer have to rely on crowdfunding to attend future events that he and the team qualify for.
ALGS Split 2 Pro League approaches
The ALGS Split 2 Pro League kicks off next weekend, with a jam packed schedule of games heading into the Esports World Cup and still to be announced ALGS Split 2 Playoffs.
This newly signed roster will be looking to repeat their Split 1 success, finishing in the top eight to book their slot at the second ALGS LAN event of the year. Their 18th place finish at the ALGS Split 1 Playoffs may have earned them enough 'Playoff Points' to already be qualified for the ALGS Championship this autumn. However, they will not only want the chance to compete at another LAN event, but to lock in their place beyond doubt.
