Biography[edit]

In late 2015 he left the team and joined former teammates AtuN and Accel and American players DeMoN and Justin in As1-. However, he'd shortly after rejoin their old Unknown friends and form Infamous.

Following another unsuccessful attempt to qualify for The International, Kotaro joined other former Infamous players in Braxstone. However, after the organisation failed to provide for them, they would leave and Kotaro and Accel would found Playmakers Esports.
