Sephy On Signing Kai And Releasing SharP, OWL Rules & Regulations, And More | GGRecon Podcast
Brad “Sephy” Rajani is the only head coach the Atlanta Reign has ever known, guiding the team since it’s introduction into the Overwatch League in 2019. After a solid start in season 2, the Reign teetered on the edge of good to average in the third season. In the second part of our interview with Brad, we delve into the challenges that the last year posed and explore topics like the rise of Babybay and his eventual retirement, Erster’s quiet season, finding out Edison was a Flex DPS, how the Reign was allowed to sign Saucy despite him being below the official cut-off given to the public, how the Reign manages to pick up talent like Pelican and Signing Kai and letting go of SharP.
Beyond topics that just concern his team, Brad also weighed in on general Overwatch esports related topics like the big issue with ranked play, the 30-Day Contract Termination Clause and the weaknesses and strength of the structure of season 4
We hope you will enjoy the second and final part of our interview with Brad “Sephy” Rajani
