Seoul Dynasty Reveals Overwatch Contenders Korea Season 3 Roster

Gen.G (the parent company of the Seoul Dynasty Overwatch League team) has announced the full roster of players coaches for the academy team that will be representing the Seoul Dynasty in Season 3 of Overwatch Contenders Korea. 

Former professional first person shooter player and esports journalist Lee Si-woo has been named the Head Coach of the Seoul Dynasty team for Contenders Korea Season 3, while former professional Starcraft player Moon "MMA" Sung-won will fill the role of assistant coach for the team during their quest for a championship title. 

The players of the newly announced Seoul Dynasty Overwatch Contenders Korea Season 3 roster consist of the following group of young talents. 

• Ye ‘Agnes’ Hyun-seo - Main DPS

• Jeong ‘Stalk3r’ Hak-yong - Sub DPS

• Kim ‘LUKE’ Hyun-jun - Main Tank

• Bang ‘Shubil’ Min-joon - Sub Tank

• Moon ‘LVLZ’ Sung-min - Main Support

• Kim ‘DNCE’ Se-yong - Sub Support

Overwatch Contenders is the top amateur league of the professional Overwatch world that feeds directly into the Overwatch League with each team in the league owning and operating an academy team to represent the organization and foster future talent. Gen.G will be looking to take this concept and kick it into overdrive with the Seoul Dynasty academy team during Overwatch Contenders Korea Season 3. 

“Our goal is to provide the top players in Korea with the training and preparation needed to go pro. For that reason, we expose them to coaching systems that resemble the way OWL teams play,” said Gen.G Chief Growth Officer Arnold Hur. “So many factors come into play at the next level, which is why we provide English lessons, physical and psychological well-being programs, and PR & marketing training so players can be better equipped once they move up. Simply put, we’re not just trying to just build a Contenders team for Seoul Dynasty, Gen.G is looking to set the gold standard for how a minor league team should be run.”  

With a roster full of motivated and talented players looking to make their mark in the Overwatch esports world and join their Seoul Dynasty Overwatch League teammates in the pro ranks, Gen.G is ready to revolutionize how the Contenders system is utilized.
