TSM Roster Changes Ahead of Rocket League Championship Series Season Nine
TSM has made some significant roster changes as they gear up for the upcoming season nine of the Rocket League Championship Series. Joonas “Mognus” Salo and Nicolai “Snaski” Vistesen Andersen have joined the team, with Snaski taking on the role of coach and Mognus replacing Yanis “Alpha54” Champenois on the main roster.
Mognus will be joining Remco “remkoe” den Boer and Otto “Metsanauris” Kaipiainen on the roster. With his experience in multiple World finals, Mognus brings a strong presence to the team. Snaski, on the other hand, will provide a fresh perspective and his expertise in European Rocket League to help elevate the team. Known for his defensive skills, Snaski’s addition is expected to enhance the overall defensive capabilities of the squad.
Moving forward, Snaski expressed his excitement, stating, “I am very proud to represent TSM. Growing up watching TSM dominate the League of Legends scene and contribute to the development of esports, I hope to bring the Rocket League team up to the standards set by the TSM name.”
TSM’s journey in the Rocket League professional scene began in early 2019 when they signed the former We Dem Girlz roster. Despite changes in coaching staff and roster, the team struggled to find stability and consistent performance. In the European RLCS, TSM finished sixth in season seven and seventh in season eight, with their best performance being a second-place finish at DreamHack Pro Circuit: Dallas 2019.
The new roster has less than a month to prepare for the start of RLCS season nine, which kicks off on February 2nd. TSM will be looking to make a strong impression and make their mark in the upcoming tournaments.
