The veteran Chinese player is now free to negotiate with other teams after two weeks of bench.

Rare Atom officially broke up with Haowen "somebody" Xu, the Chinese organization announced on Tuesday. This decision was made just two weeks after the 30 -year -old player was pushed to the bench to make room for Aojie "Trash" Tian.

Smebody joined Rare Atom in October 2023 in the form of loan from Typo, before signing the official contract in early 2024. For nearly two years of wearing the team, he and Rare Atom attended Shanghai Major at the end of 2024 and PGL Bucharest 2025.

The former member of E9, Trash helped Rare Atom win the Gangkui Cup Season 1 championship in Shanghai last week after defeating Wings Up. Next week, he will have the first time to participate in an international LAN tournament when Rare Atom competes at Fissure Playground 1 in Belgrade.
