After a long fought battle, Stage 2 of the Call of Duty: World League ANZ Pro Division was wrapped up over the weekend in Los Angeles with Mindfreak taking out the overall Stage 2 honours. With the Stage coming to a close, it opens up the floor for squad changes, allowing teams to consolidate their roster for the upcoming Call of Duty: World Championship qualifiers and for the future leading into Infinite Warfare.

As a result, Plantronics Tainted Minds have mutually released Reef 'Eminence' Galloway from the Call of Duty roster in order to allow Reef the opportunity to follow his playing aspirations as he continues his strive for success in the ANZ region.

It is disappointing that Reef has requested to move on as he has been an asset to the Call of Duty roster throughout both stages of the CWL. On behalf of Tainted Minds I would like to wish Reef all the very best in his future endeavours, I know he will make an impact with his new team and I look forward to that rivalry in the coming weeks.

With Reef being such an influence to the success of Tainted in Call of Duty thus far, it has left a large void in the roster to be filled. As such, it is only fitting that we welcome back a former member of the Tainted family, Jake 'Fate' Fitzpatrick back to the Plantronics Tainted Minds roster.

I'm happy to be right back where I rightfully belong. This time around I believe we have the motivation and dedication to make our mark on the world stage.

Jake was an obvious choice to fill the void left by Reef, being a player of such high calibre and already having such a good chemistry with the other members of the roster. We believe that Jake will be the key to securing an invitation to the Call of Duty: World Championship later in the year.
