@NRGgg
Today we say farewell to @Shanks_TTV who was a key member in building NRG Valorant, Thank you for everything you contributed to the #NRGFAM. We wish you all the best, see you on the server.

"I love everyone who is apart of this org and gave me the chance to play," shanks said in a statement on Twitter. "I had fun but this just really was not the right fit for me."

Shanks has stated he intends to return to streaming and remains open to joining a new team, given the right fit and opportunity. The Canadian has notably been banned from Twitch for the past month and a half, for seemingly unknown reasons.

The NRG roster has been in flux since the organization entered the Valorant scene in October of 2020, having signed seven players across five months. The core roster has seen steady improvement, reaching the main event of Stage 1's Challengers 1 and 3, and notably edging out 100 Thieves in the latter event.

Following NRG's acquisition of Bradley "ANDROID" Fodor from Andbox Andbox Inactive Oderus Chad Miller mummAy Anthony DiPaolo Lear Dayton Akau Jonaaa6 Jonard Penaflor vice Daniel Kim late last month, the status of Gage "Infinite" Green has remained ambiguous. It is unknown if Infinite will return to the active roster.
