GamerLegion has moved Erik ‘ztr‘ Gustafsson to the bench following a disappointing StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 campaign.
The change brings a year-and-a-half stint in the German esports organisation’s starting line-up to an end.
The Swedish in-game leader joined GamerLegion in July 2024, managing to lead the team into the top 10 of the Valve Regional Standings (VRS) in June 2025. Having climbed into the top 10, the team struggled to hold onto its place, falling outside of the top 20 in December’s standings.
Following playoff appearances at IEM Melbourne 2025 and IEM Dallas 2025, GamerLegion looked to continue its upward trajectory into the second half of 2025.
