Temperature will be able to take over Omen when needed. Also, in the Gen.G roster, it is Koosta who hand Sova, Killjoy and Cypher. Again, Temperature could easily get one of his roles back in some compositions.
So it was a great opportunity for Gen.G to rent this player. Player rental" is not a new thing in the Valorant scene.

By loaning a player, Evil Genuises needed a 5th member to continue the competitions.
The team turned to Kelden". Boostio "Pupello, former player for Spacestation Gaming. He was previously in trial period in the structure and was integrated into the active roster. Boostio has also shown all his talent during the last few games played by the team. This was during the Knights Monthly Gauntlet: September. The team has since been eliminated from the tournament.
The next two weeks will certainly be eventful, and may bring further changes to the teams that qualify for the various LCQs.
