Pittsburgh Knights has signed Richard “Ricky” Stacy and Renato “Saints” Forza to its Call of Duty roster, replacing Andres Lacefield and Dylan “Theory” McGee. Saints and Ricky join Christopher “Parasite” Duarte, Adam “GodRx” Brown, and Casey “Pandur” Romano on the Knights’ team.

Saints competed for Evil Geniuses at the CWL Las Vegas Open in December, where they finished top eight. Ricky’s team, G2 Esports, didn’t perform as well, earning a top 16 placing.

G2’s showing led to the organization making changes to the team, which included Ricky and Brice Faccento being replaced by Anthony “Methodz” Zinni and former Pittsburgh Knights player Andres Lacefield.
