Add one more esports organization to the list of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds teams, as Tempo Storm has fielded a squad. The organization announced that it has signed top PUBG squad Pure RNG. Tempo Storm’s new roster consists of Keane “Valliate” Alonso as a shotcaller, Diondre “YaBoiDre” Bond as a slayer, Luke “Meluke” Laing as a slayer and secondary shotcaller, and Randy “Randingo” Joiner as a support player. The team will be coached and managed by Trey “Afflux” Bourne.
All four of the players come from various gaming backgrounds, but are talented—with Tempo Storm saying that the squad is first overall in North America for all-time points on the Showdown Series leaderboard, and individually the players have been in the top ten for NA in Squads at one point or another. “Having the opportunity to represent Tempo Storm is a dream come true,” Valliate said in a statement. “I have been a fan of this organization since the start. The mindset and winning mentality that we have aligns perfectly with what this company was built off and represents. With Tempo Storm behind our backs, we as a team want to solidify our spot as not only the number one North American team, but as a dominant force throughout PUBG, and be known as the undisputed best team in the world.” Tempo Storm joins the ranks of TSM, Cloud9, Luminosity, Team Liquid, Noble Esports, and Mythic Reborn to add PUBG rosters to their stable of teams. It’s not yet known if Tempo Storm will be competing in the gamescom PUBG Invitational next weekend, but the other teams mentioned above will be there.
