Eternal Fire CEO responds to Calyx replacement rumors

Speculations have surfaced online that Eternal Fire player Calyx could be replaced by a member from the team's academy squad — jottAAA. However, the organization's CEO, 1NCON, officially denied these rumors, emphasizing that 2024 is the most successful year in the club's history.
Community reaction
Despite achieving impressive achievements in 2024, the community is still disappointed with Eternal Fire's recent results. Rumors of possible roster changes have sparked attention, especially amid high expectations from fans.
Situational context
Discussions about possible roster changes began after the team was eliminated from the RMR tournament (leaving with a 1-3 record). However, 1NCON emphasized that Eternal Fire's successes in 2024, including reaching the ESL Pro League play-offs, deserve respect.
Statement from CEO
In a statement posted on the X platform, the CEO called on the community to evaluate the situation objectively:
"If we analyze the results, many large organizations could not qualify for the major qualifiers. On the contrary, we have achieved great successes, including entering the EPL play-offs. For us, this is a very successful year."
According to 1NCON, the main focus right now is on the motivation of the players and working on their mental state. Decisions on possible replacements will only be made after internal discussions and will be made public if necessary.

The CEO emphasized that, currently, the players and management are resting after a stressful season. All discussions will be conducted after detailed meetings and analysis. For now, Calyx is still an important member of the team, and the possibility of him being replaced by jottAAA has been ruled out.
Importance of statement
The denial of the rumors has reduced tensions surrounding Eternal Fire's roster, letting fans know that the team is focused on stability and improving internal processes. The successes in 2024 and the attention to players' mental health demonstrate the organization's serious approach to future seasons.
