rookie steps down as Flames Shieldmaidens coach

Danish esports organization Copenhagen Flames has officially said goodbye to rookie, who was the head coach of the women's Flames Shieldmaidens roster. The 24-year-old Lebanese specialist has been working with the team for the past four months.

Today it is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to rookie. He played a crucial role in shaping our line-up and has always been extremely humble and kind. He has been a loyal member of the Flames family for some time now and we will always be grateful for his contributions. However, I feel that we need to move in a new direction, namely with a new coach who has a different profile. Finding a new coach is not easy, but we are working hard to find someone who will allow our team to perform at the highest international level, which I am sure the girls are capable of - Philip Karsbel, Head of Esports at Copenhagen Flames

rookie led the team in the summer of 2022. During this time, the composition has undergone major changes, signing two-thirds of the composition at once. Under the leadership of a 24-year-old Lebanese specialist, the team made it to the TOP-3 at ESL Impact Cash Cup: Europe - Summer 2022 #1, ESL Impact Cash Cup: Europe - Summer 2022 #3 and ESL Impact Cash Cup: Europe - Autumn 2022 #1.

However, the Flames Shieldmaidens failed to qualify for the ESL Impact League Season 2: European Division, leaving them without the fall part of the season.

Now the Dutch-Danish team will continue to play in the weekly championships, while the organization is looking for a new head coach.
