ETF2L Premiership team Full Tilt (formerly Perilous Gaming), have undergone a roster swap following their DreamHack Summer appearance. Silentes, who couldn't play at DreamHack Summer and was replaced by tek, will be moved back up to the starting roster for the rest of the ETF2L season and Insomnia 58. The team also returned to their roots after saying goodbye to their namesake sponsor, Perilous Gaming.

Full Tilt was picked up by the Perilous organization at the beginning of 2016 with the intent of taking top level TF2 seriously. Their financial support from Perilous would enable them to attend LANs such as DreamHack Summer and Insomnia 58 without paying entirely out of pocket or requiring community fundraisers. However, communication issues led to Full Tilt dropping their partnership.

Silentes’ return to Full Tilt won’t be new for him. He has been a part of the roster ever since Full Tilt’s inception last year in Season 22. After missing out on DreamHack Summer, Silentes is ready to make his first LAN appearance at i58.

Full Tilt’s medic and part time Squirrel King kos spoke to us about the recent changes to the team:

We left the Perilous organisation due to their inability or unwillingness to give us proper LAN support. We discussed support for DHS and were told explicitly by the organisation that we would have accommodation paid for and organised by Perilous. The week leading up to the event we asked multiple times about where we were supposedly staying but received no response and so at the event were forced to pay for a hotel out of pocket, costing us more money since it was booked at the last minute. Because of this lack of communication and follow through we decided to leave the Perilous organisation to pursue a more trustworthy organisation or support ourselves for i58.

Moving forward through the ETF2L Premiership Season 24 Playoffs and Insomnia 58, Full Tilt are:

It's real shame how much orgs are being dropped by teams due to lack of communication on the orgs end. It's pretty fucking disrespectful to the scene in general to see teams treated like this constantly.
