Agape first began his tenure with the Spitfire when the team first entered the Overwatch League. He left the team in the first month of the 2018 season and then returned that April. He has worked as an assistant coach for the team since then.
Pavane has spent the last two seasons serving as the head coach of the New York Excelsior. He worked alongside Agape in 2016 and 2017 as the two coached LuxuryWatch Blue and LuxuryWatch Red together.
SNT began his Overwatch League career as a tank player before transitioning into coaching for the Florida Mayhem this past season. He played for LuxuryWatch Red at the time Agape and Pavane coached the team.
Twinkl is most well-known for playing support for Korean team BK Stars during the first three seasons of APEX. He became the coach of O2 Blast in January of this year and remained with them until April.
The four will be at the helms of a roster that is undergoing significant shifts. The team dropped three players at the start of the offseason and ESPN has reported the team is trading away two star players.
