Alexander "Yeti" Lawson has left the Soniqs after the team finished in last place during the Six Berlin Major. He is now the second departure from the lineup, following Seth "supr" Hoffman's retirement.
After winning Pro League relegations on three occasions and competing on rosters such as Noble, Disrupt, and briefly, Obey Alliance, Yeti was a part of eUnited's first lineup in R6.
This team had an awful 2020; they finished in seventh, eighth, and eighth before the organization dropped the team and left the scene somewhat abruptly. Yeti and three of his teammates were then picked up by the Soniqs, and in 2021 they attended the Mexican and Sweden Majors before becoming NAL champions.
This year after a fifth-sixth place finish at the Six Invitational, the Soniqs failed to qualify for the Charlotte Major and were the first team to exit the Berlin Major.
Yeti has left the Soniqs after just over 18 months on the team.
