nGize cut backs: Check, Demuslim and Kei leave

ImagenGize choose to remove their long-term member Hyeong Ju "Check" Lee, along with Ben "DeMusliM" Baker and allegedly inactive Dae Duck "Kei" Yoon.

nGize recently added their eleventh player Phil 'LongWalk' Crawford, but have now had their roster trimmed down to size. Despite finishing fourth in the overall WC3L XV player statistics, and helping nGize finish 1st in the online season, Hyeong Ju 'Check' Lee has struggled in the NGL ONE 1on1 Ladder, and now sits at rock bottom with only four wins from seventeen games.

NGize manager SuNNy said in his official statement that "Sadly the coordination between the team and Check has not been right in recent times. Due to the fact there are few tournaments we were forced to react like this way."

The second player on his way out is Benjamin 'DeMusliM' Baker, who only joined a month ago in the run-up to his participation at the Blizzard European Regionals in Cologne. The Brit who has had several bouts of inactivity revealed in his official statement that he has "have chosen to taken at least a year off studies in order to seriously focus on gaming full-time."

"I'll be looking around for interesting team offers as I see where my career will lead to. If I have some success, I may choose to do this for longer than the one year," said Demuslim. The final player leaving the team is Dae Duck 'Kei' Yoon, who did not play a competitive match during his time in nGize.
