Cloud9 end Zellsis trial period

Cloud9 will no longer use the services of Jordan “Zellsis” Montemurro. The 21-year-old was on trial with the team as a replacement for Maikil “Golden” Selim, who was out since he got diagnosed with myocarditis.

With Zellsis on the team, Cloud9 made it to the 5th-6th position at iBUYPOWER Masters and second at the ELEAGUE CS:GO Invitational, also reaching the New Legends Stage of the IEM Katowice Major, failing to make it to the top 8, going out with a 2-3 record.

Zellsis, who sported a 0.87 rating while playing with Cloud9,is rumoured to be a part of the new  Swole Patrol roster alongside Bradley “ANDROID” Fodor, Braxton “swag” Pierce and Sam “s0m” Oh, stated in a report from Rush B Media.

This change comes shortly after Golden came back into the mix, replacing Robin “flusha” Rönnquist, who will be taking an extended break from the competitive scene following the demise of his mother.

In his own statement, Zellsis says that “I still have a lot to learn as a player, but it was an honor to spend my first major with such an incredible group of players. Thank you to everyone at Cloud9 for giving me this opportunity and I plan on coming back bigger and better than ever”

Cloud9 currently have:

• [flag=us]Timothy “autimatic” Ta
• [flag=us]William “RUSH” Wierzba
• [flag=fr]Fabien “kioShiMa” Fiey
• [flag=se]Maikil “Golden” Selim

Cloud9 will be back in action during BLAST Pro Series Miami, on April 12.
