EnVision eSports announced on Twitter today that they were releasing longtime tank Kophee and their coach Packing10 will be stepping down to pursue flight school. This comes just after a 5th-6th place run in the BEAT Invitational Season 2 that included a victory over LG Evil.
@KopheeOW officially released from our team. We thank him for his hardwork. We are now accepting trials for Main Tank Role. Reach: @qrowgg

It has only been little over a week since DPS player ConnorJ parted way with the team and Jaru was brought in to trial. After making it to the Contenders Season Zero playoffs with ConnorJ, they failed to qualify for Contenders Season 1 with Jaru.
The team was then invited to the BEAT Invitational after Evil Geniuses and Cloud 9 dropped out of the tournament. They beat LG Evil in their first match of the tournament before losing to Immortals and FNRGFE in consecutive games.
@Packing_10 will be stepping down from FT coaching to pursue Flight School. We are now taking resumes to fill the coach role.Reach: @qrowgg

EnVision appears to be a team on the rise in North America, playing much better since the beginning of Contenders Season Zero than they had in the past few months. The squad will be hoping that their recent string of improved results will entice a top free agent tank and coach to the roster.
The roster of EnVision eSports is now:
- Jani "Tseini" Kähkönen (DPS)
- Jason "Jaru" White (Trial Flex DPS)
- Caleb "McGravy" McGarvey (Flex)
- Anthony "Fire" King (Support)
- Riley "Fahzix" Taylor (Support)
