The Seoul Dynasty started the inaugural season of the Overwatch League in fine form, however began to rapidly drop off towards the end of the season, ultimately finishing in eighth place. Since then, the roster has undergone numerous changes, with players leaving to join other teams: Kim “KuKi” Ki to Los Angeles Valiant, Koo “xepheR” Jae-mo to Florida Mayhem, and Gong “Miro” Jin-hyuk, Moon “Gido” Gi-do, Choi “Wekeed” Seok-woo, and Heo “Gambler” Jin-woo into free agency.

Technically, the Seoul Dynasty still has three more slots available to sign more players, however the organization has not revealed whether it will field a full twelve-man roster at this stage. for now, fans will have to wait and see if Seoul can once again become a dominant force in the Overwatch League, especially with new teams increasing the pool.
