Previously known as Project Unknown, the GC Esport team ascended to the GSA League after surviving the Relegations. It was after confirming their promotion that GC Esport signed this roster.
But it has not been a pleasant start for the team, to say the least. After the conclusion of the first leg, GC Esport are at the bottom of the table with just four points.
Nevertheless, the team kicked things off promisingly after falling to PENTA by a close margin (5-7) and a losing to G2 Esports in overtime, which was decided after a clutch by Virtue in the 15th and final possible round.
From there, it was just downhill for GC. The team hit rock bottom after losing to Ovation, their main opposition in the fight to avoid relegation, after conceding five rounds in the second half of the match.
It was then that the roster introduced Jay and Qurly.
After two disappointing performances against Rogue and Sissi State Punks, the team has shown signs of improvement, securing its first win of the season against Team GoSkilla last week.
Furthermore, GC is well alive in the European Challenger League Open Qualifiers after accumulating 60 points across the first two qualifiers.
SiegeGG spoke to its manager, Sebastian "Sebi" Kager, to find out more about this team, its goals, and its situation in the GSA League 2021.
