Biography

2014 Season

Kim "GimGoon" Han-saem (also stylized Gimgoon) joined Xenics Storm as their new top laner in October of 2014. The team made its debut at PANDORA.TV Champions Winter 2013-2014, where they surprised many by qualifying for the playoffs. Unfortunately, they lost 3-1 in the quarterfinals to NaJin White Shield. The team disbanded shortly after the season ended. GimGoon joined Samsung Galaxy Blue as a sub but never played any games for them before he left in June of 2014. He then joined the KT Rolster Bullets as a sub and played two games for them at HOT6iX Champions Summer 2014. He left the team two weeks after the season ended.

EPA competed in the 2015 Demacia Cup Summer Season but lost 3-2 in the first round to Team King.
