NeaLaN arrives after an unsuccessful 12 months with North American organisation Evil Geniuses, where he was the in-game leader; however, with EG being his first tier-one team, he seemingly struggled to perform consistently.
Before joining Evil Geniuses, neaLaN was considered as one of the up-and-coming IGL players in the Counter-Strike scene after leading K23 to a few tier-two event wins, including Pinnacle Winter Series and Funspark ULTI Europe Playoffs.
Volt arrives after spending a fruitful five months with Into The Breach, helping them reach the quarter-finals of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023.
Over the last three months for ITB, volt has averaged a 1.10 rating, with many solid performances against tier-one teams, which should hold him in good stead as he steps into a relatively young GamerLegion roster.

Due to their ESL World Ranking jumping from no.31 to no.6 after their runner-up performance at the Paris Major, GamerLegion will earn automatic invites to most S-Tier tournaments for the rest of this year.
With only a few weeks until the group stage of IEM Cologne 2023, GamerLegion will have a short amount of time to practise together before beginning their campaign in Germany.
