The “new” team is NRG’s first Overwatch team and they are looking forward to the opportunity. As NRG eSports Chairman Andy Miller stated in an interview with Daily Dot eSports:
The NRG Overwatch team roster consists of Seagull, Gods, Milo, Pookz, Enigma, and new addition Dummy playing support.
Seagull often streams on Twitch and routinely brings upwards of 30k viewers into his channel, which you can find here: https://www.twitch.tv/a_seagull
