The team has been performing well in the ESL UK Contender Cup qualifiers, and recently placed third.
The Last Resort said in a statement they expect ‘great things from the roster in the up and coming months’, and aim to reach top four in the upcoming ESL UK Overwatch Premiership.
The org have signed the following roster:
- DPS – George ‘Caspa’ Stephens
- DPS – Jamie ‘Wing’ Duell
- Flex – Kieran ‘Keys’ John
- Tank – Tom ‘stRove’ Keyen
- Support – Steven ‘STV’ Mccormick
- Support – Thomas ‘Space’ Mayer
- Coach – Kacper Blaszczyk
Jamie ‘Wing’ Duell said: “The Last Resort is an organisation I’ve looked up to since I joined the eSports scene. Ever since the former thriving CoD4 pro-mod scene to now, I’m really glad I’ve been given the opportunity to represent the organisation with this team.
“As we develop as a team we would like to step into the European scene, competing in leagues such as Gosugamers, as well as competing in as many European cups as possible. We just hope we can set a positive example in the scene and represent TLR to the best of our ability.”
Team coach Kacper Blaszczyk added: “I’m very grateful for the opportunity to work with this talented bunch of guys.
“With a good attitude and hard work we can be one of the best teams in the UK scene.”
Last month The Last Resort announced their return to UK CSGO.
