While the experiment looked good during the first Overwatch Rumble, where Team EnVyUs fell 3-2 to Rogue in the finals, Lui's experience in APEX has come to a close. While Team EnVyUs originally planned to use a seven-man roster to rotate EFFECT and Lui, EFFECT's recent performances have caused them to reconsider this notion.

Lui plans to look for an Overwatch Contenders team before the tournament begins, citing a desire to perform well in the tournament that might be the precursor to Blizzard's Overwatch League. While waiting, he will continue to play from Korea and improve on what people consider a more competitive ladder.
With the departure, Team EnVyUs has narrowed down its seven-man roster to a standard six. The team currently sports a 2-0 record in APEX, with a close victory against Meta Athena and a dominant showing against Rhinos Gaming Wings.
As of now, the Team EnVyUs roster is as follows:
- Timo "Taimou" Kettunen (DPS)
- Kim "EFFECT" Hyeon (DPS)
- Pongphop "Mickie" Rattanasangchod (Flex)
- Christian "cocco" Jonsson (Tank)
- Sebastian "chipshajen" Widlund (Support)
- Jonathan "HarryHook" Rua (Support)
- Kyle "KyKy" Souder (Coach)
