Sources from Sheep Esports suddenly revealed that G2 Esports is preparing to change the League of Legends roster. Accordingly, Martin "Yike" Sundelin and Mihael "Mikyx" Mehle have been allowed by the organization to find new stops.

Less than 24 hours after being eliminated from the 2024 World Finals, Sheep Esports reporter Alejandro Gomis reported that the duo Yike and Mikyx were allowed to leave the team. Both players being allowed to leave G2 will end the organization's roster that has played together for the past two years. 

G2 Esports plans to eliminate two heroes immediately after leaving the 2024 World Finals

At the 2024 World Finals, G2 Esports continued to cause great disappointment. In the Bo1 matches, G2 played quite well, winning against paiN Gaming, losing to Hanwha Life Esports and winning against Weibo Gaming to advance to the 2-1 bracket. After that, the LEC champion suffered a 0-2 defeat against T1 and fell to the 2-2 bracket. 

In the end, G2 lost to Bilibili Gaming 1-2 and was officially eliminated from the tournament. This is also the second time in a row that G2 has not been able to advance to the Quarterfinals of the World Finals when last year, Caps and their teammates also lost to Bilibili Gaming 1-2 in the final match. 

In this tournament, both Yike and Mikyx continuously performed below expectations. Yike seemed out of breath when he couldn't promote popular picks in the jungle like Nocturne or Skarner, while Mikyx moved too much and continuously caused G2 to lose their advantage, thereby losing the whole game. 

However, both Yike and Mikyx have made great contributions to G2 in domestic tournaments. In two years playing for this team, both of them won 7 LEC championships, especially completely dominating 2024 when winning all tournaments. However, low performance and continuous early exits at international tournaments have finally made it likely that this duo will no longer play for G2 in 2025.
