"It is a bit frustrating," STYKO began on X, "but this move aligns with the team’s broader strategic goals and doesn’t reflect my performance, leadership, or passion.

"I feel great in IGL role and I want to continue in it. I see a lot of progress in myself these past six months despite poor results, which is leaving a bittersweet feeling of wanting more, and motivating me."

He added: "Even if this sounds bold, I will say that I can improve a lot of rosters as a captain."
