Gambit Gaming top laner Lucas "Cabochard" Simon-Meslet has announced his free agency via Facebook on Saturday.

As some of you know since my contract with GMB ran out on the 25th, I'm a free agent too ! Will make a longer post about last year soon ! <3 Posted by Cabochard on Saturday, November 7, 2015

The Frenchman initially joined Gambit in late 2014, and was a key part of the team throughout 2015. His time on Gambit started on a high note with a victory at IEM Cologne in Dec 2014, but since them Gambit has struggled, falling out of the 2015 EU LCS Spring Playoffs in the quarterfinals and finishing eighth in the Summer Split. More recently, Gambit defended their LCS spot by defeating mousesports 3-0 in the 2016 EU LCS Promotion.

Cabochard finished the summer split with a 2.65 KDA, but was nevertheless praised for his versatility and strong play throughout the year. His stats for the promotion match are much more impressive, as he boasted an 11.3 KDA.
