This announcement comes after paJion's one-month period of free agency following his split from the Titans alongside JJANU. He will be joining head coach MASK and assistant coach U4 on the team's coaching staff.
The last time the Spark were in the news was when they welcomed DPS player Architect to the team from the San Francisco Shock.
paJion's addition puts the Spark back to three coaches. They started the season with three coaches but parted ways with assistant coach yeah in May.
The Spark's last appearance in game was in the May Melee, where they fell in the Asian quarterfinals to the Dynasty, who secured a second place finish after a grueling 7-map series against the Dragons.
The team currently sits at the 10th position in the league standings, ahead of the Valiant and behind the Dynasty. With the May Melee concluded, there are currently no scheduled upcoming matches for the team.
