AZR departs Sprout

German club Sprout has announced via their official Twitter account that Aaron "AZR" Ward departed the roster. According to the press release, the decision was made amid the team's unsatisfactory performance at the Europe RMR.

Ward joined Sprout just a month and a half ago, having returned to the pro scene after a six-month period of inactivity. However, the Australian fell short to succeed together with the new roster. In particular, they placed 12th-14th pat BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR A, having secured only one victory over Viperio.

As a result, Sprout decided to look for a new IGL, starting the process of lineup restructuring along the way. It is unknown if other roster changes will follow, but the club have also announced the formation of an academy team next summer.

 Sprout's current lineup is:

 Victor "⁠Staehr⁠" Staehr
 Laurențiu "⁠lauNX⁠" Țârlea
 Adrian "⁠XELLOW⁠" Guță
 Rasmus "Zyphon" Nordfoss

 Danny "⁠BERRY⁠" Krüger (coach)
