Team Peps replace three players for Stage 3
Team Peps signs Florian “Dip” Levèvre, William “Willys07” Ersson and Leo-Kristian “Zorrow” Sundin, after parting ways with Moritz “Cookie084” Schmidt, Alexander “Tred” Madgwick-Smith and Manuel “Ken” Demir.
After a strong start in Stage 1 of the Overwatch Champions Series 2025 with a 2nd place finish in the regular season, followed by an unfortunate early exit in Playoffs. Team Peps fell behind the Saudi organisations in Stage 2, missing the playoffs and therefore not travelling to Riyadh for the Midseason Championship at the Esports World Cup. Team Peps look to improve their performance in Stage 3 and qualify for the 2025 World Finals Major in Stockholm with a series of changes.
After narrowly beating 1DIPVS100GORILLAS for 6th place in the final week of Stage 2, ultimately sending them to relegation, Team Peps trialled several members of their roster before eventually signing two. While Willys07 will act as the lone tank in Stage 3, Dip is going to share the DPS lineup with fellow Frenchman SoOn and the newly signed Zorrow. Zorrow joins the team in his return to OWCS after placing second with Team Anomaly in FACEIT League Season 5 - EMEA Master and an 8th place finish with Sakura Esports back in Stage 1.
The younger players that joined will be looking to lean on the experienced support players FDGod, Xeriongdh and seasoned Overwatch League veteran SoOn. This revamped roster hopes to overcome the challenges of bigger organisations in EMEA and qualify for a trip to Sweden for the OWCS World Finals in November.
The current Team Peps line-up is:
- Florian “Dip” Lefèvre (DPS)
- Leo-Kristian “Zorrow” Sundin (DPS)
- Terence “SoOn” Tarlier (DPS)
- William “Willys07” Ersson (Tank)
- Brice “FDGod” Monsçavoir (Support)
- Benjamin “Xeriongdh” Nambruide (Support)
