As the squad continues to look for an in-game commander, Danny #BERRY Krüger will replace Sprout in their future matches in the ESL Challenger League Season 44 and the CCT Central Europe Malta Finals 1, according to esports media sources.

The decision puts an end to #Maze brief in-game leadership trial, and the #Dane, who was first announced on Tuesday as the team's new captain, has now been removed off the roster after just two days in charge.

What went wrong?

With Maze as their captain, Sprout made one single appearance, taking part in the IEM Brazil Europe closed qualifier in an effort to qualify for the $250,000 competition.

The lineup with a Danish predominance had a difficult time during the competition, which was hampered by delays and technological difficulties. The team lost against 9INE, a team not presently ranked in the top 30, and BIG before going out in joint-last place.

Since their roster change on Tuesday, Sprout has been looking for an in-game captain. After serving as captain for six months, Ismail #refrezh Ali resigned after admitting in a tweet that he stutters and that this speech handicap keeps him from being the best caller he can be.

In the interim, the team will welcome #BERRY onto the server, and the coach will make his first appearance in a match since taking part in the team's second-place performance at the ESL Championship Autumn 2022 Finals in December.

What is next for Sprout?

Sprout successfully qualified for the ESL Pro League Season 17 Conference with BERRY present since BIG Academy, who are affiliated with the competition's organizer through the Louvre Agreement, are ineligible to participate in the league's premier league with their regular team.
