Big news for Marsborne fans! Ian "motm" Hardy is back in the starting lineup, shaking up the team dynamics. This announcement, made on January 2, 2026, marks a significant shift. Let's dive in!
Written by Mnmzzz, the news reveals that motm will be replacing Wesley "viz" Harris. Motm's return is particularly noteworthy because he was previously benched in favor of Danny "Cxzi" Strzelczyk back in mid-September.
According to Marsborne's head coach, Hunter "Lucid" Tucker, viz is stepping away from the team due to personal family matters. This departure is undoubtedly unfortunate, as viz's exit comes at a time when the team was on a high note, especially after a strong performance in 2025 under Cxzi's leadership. But here's where it gets controversial... While motm is a talented player, re-integrating him into the lineup will likely require a period of adjustment.
Marsborne's current roster now looks like this:
- Connor "chop" Sullivan
- Adam "WolfY" Andersson
- Adam "Grizz" Golden
- Danny "Cxzi" Strzelczyk
- Ian "motm" Hardy
- Hunter "Lucid" Tucker (Coach)
Motm is already with Marsborne at FRAG Miami 2 this weekend. The team has secured a spot in the playoffs after a win against Reign Above earlier today.
