The team also finished 3rd-4th place in the MPLI 2021.
Following this, the team made changes to its roster, sending its star players Ahmad and Leomurphy to its MDL team while adding fresh new faces from its amateur team to the professional squad.
The team is composed of the following pro players;
Muhammad "Udil" julian Ardiansyah - Mid Lane
Eldin "Celiboy" Rahadian Putra - Jungle Lane
Syauki "Nino" Fauzan S - Gold Lane
Rafly "Pai" Alvareza Sudrajat - EXP Lane
