In a recent livestream, Nishant "iFlicks" Murlidharan, the coach of the Hyderabad Hydras' Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) lineup, shed light on the team's current situation, explaining the delay in announcing their new roster due to the players' absence from the boot camp. Despite the setback, iFlicks provided some valuable insights into the upcoming lineup while also disclosing the reasons behind the team's decision to exclude Arshpreet "GiLL" Singh from Hyderabad Hydras.
iFlicks Reveals Delayed Announcement and Reasons for Excluding GiLL from Hyderabad Hydras
Anticipation among fans of the Hyderabad Hydras has been mounting as they eagerly awaited news about the team's new BGMI roster. iFlicks hinted at one player being a former member of Team IND, a prominent team in the BGMI community, which has led to speculations suggesting it might be Kanishk "Slayer" Shah.
Expressing his belief in the team's revamped lineup, iFlicks emphasized the added value of their collective experience and the heightened level of respect they command compared to the previous roster. Addressing a previous controversy concerning tournament slots, iFlicks assured that no further issues would arise in that regard, as tournament organizers expressed satisfaction with the allocation of a single slot instead of two.
Turning to the topic of GiLL, iFlicks revealed his initial intention to include him in the Hyderabad Hydras' lineup. However, circumstances prevented this from happening, as GiLL would be playing for the second lineup of GodL. Suraj "Neyoo" Majumdar, a player from GodL's primary BGMI lineup, recently disclosed that the organization was assembling a second lineup that would compete under a different name.
iFlicks emphasized his personal experience as a former player, having faced poaching situations, and his desire to avoid such complications. Consequently, he reached out to Abhijeet "GHATAK" Andhare, another prominent member of GodL eSports, seeking his cooperation, but unfortunately, no positive response was received. As a result, iFlicks made the decision to refrain from recruiting GiLL.
During the livestream, iFlicks also provided an update on the finalization of Hyderabad Hydras' lineup, revealing that the announcement had been delayed due to the players' delayed arrival at the boot camp. Once all the players are present, iFlicks plans to dedicate two days to shooting and editing an announcement video before making it public.
