The Challenger Circuit serves as the definitive tier two scene of the Apex Legends Global Series: a proving ground for teams to showcase their worth and potentially earn a ticket to the Pro League with outstanding results. However, one team appears to have voluntarily stepped down, going undercover in the EMEA Challenger Circuit to continue competing against weaker teams, up until their exposure with last week’s tournament results.
Following the conclusion of EMEA’s third Challenger Circuit tournament of Split Two, Heroez parted ways with their roster on May 29 after many players went public with smurfing allegations against the entire team. Tobias “BaByLoNs” Dévérité, Florent “Faco” Thery, and Quentin “Klemmy” Etienne were all released after spending three months with the organization.
