Argentine organisation KRÜ Esports is entering Rocket League esports for the first time signing a South American roster.
On 14th October, KRÜ announced Sebastián "PAN" Parra, Matias "Roblah" Rocha, Daniel “artezzy” Gonzalez and coach Pablo "pekitas" Agustín Novelli for the RLCS 2021/22 season.
“Time to expand. It's time to jump in and score a goal”, the org tweeted in the announcement. “Welcome!”
KRÜ will be playing in the South American region of the Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS), competing for regional seeds in international Majors and, ultimately, the World Championship.
KRÜ teased their entry into Rocket League esports back in May 2021 when the last RLCS season was soon to wrap up.
Now they are here, their first test will come in no time as KRÜ is scheduled to participate in the RLCS 2021/22 South American invitational qualifiers which will take place over one day on 15th October.
