Neil "⁠NeiL_M⁠" Murphy has ended his stint at Imperial, an organization he won two titles with, and will be looking for new opportunities.

In October, Imperial came back from StarSeries i-League Season 6 with a disappointing 9-11th place under their belt. Soon after that, two of the Lithuanian players on the roster, Žygimantas "⁠nukkye⁠" Chmieliauskas and Eimantas "⁠pounh⁠" Lazickas, were released.

Nemanja "⁠nexa⁠" Isaković and Rokas "⁠EspiranTo⁠" Milasauskas then joined Valiance, bringing Otto "⁠ottoNd⁠" Sihvo, who had been trying out for Imperial after the Lithuanians left, into the team with them.

Finally, Ali "⁠hAdji⁠" Haïnouss was released from his contract and Markus "⁠pronax⁠" Wallsten, who had been standing in for the team, was never signed.

Although Imperial's CEO Oli Adams stated that they "will be looking to re-enter CS:GO in the near future," it will not be under the team's former manager, NeiL_M, as he has stepped down and will be looking for other coaching or managing opportunities.
