Seoul, South Korea — Paper Rex has made the difficult decision to move Aaron "Mindfreak" Leonhart from the active roster to reserve status. However, Mindfreak has expressed his desire to continue competing at the highest levels and Paper Rex has allowed him to explore offers and opportunities as a restricted free-agent. Mindfreak has been with the team since the inaugural VCT seasons and has greatly contributed to the team's successes past and present. “Aaron is a fierce competitor and an incredibly cerebral player with a wealth of experience in his roles. We consider ourselves extremely fortunate to have him on our reserve roster, ready to step in should emergencies arise in Stage 2. Throughout the course of our journey, Aaron has been nothing short of professional and a strong team player throughout his tenure with us. Most recently, working closely with his teammates in his coaching role to take us across the finish line at VALORANT Masters Toronto. However, Aaron has expressed to us his burning desire to actively play and compete again, and Paper Rex does not want to hold talent like him back from exploring opportunities.” — Harley "dsn" Örvall, Chief Gaming Officer (CGO), Paper Rex. Mindfreak joined Paper Rex as one of its earliest members of the CS:GO team in 2020 and transitioned to VALORANT in early 2021. Together with Paper Rex, he has qualified for 3 VALORANT Champions and 8 VALORANT Masters events to date. Paper Rex now has the following roster: 🇲🇾 Khalish “d4v41” Rusyaidee 🇮🇩 Jason “f0rsakeN” Susanto 🇷🇺 Ilya "something" Petrov 🇸🇬 Wang “Jinggg” Jing Jie 🇵🇭 Patrick “PatMen” Mendoza 🇮🇩 Aaron “mindfreak” Leonhart (Reserve) 🇫🇷 Alexandre “alecks” Sallé (Head Coach) 🇸🇬 Kumeresan "Tommy" Ramani (Team Manager)
