Dexerto has been informed that if the two sides come to an agreement, oBo will not join the active lineup immediately. Due to the sixteen year-old age restriction of ESL Pro League, oBo is unable to compete in Season 9 next month.

His birthday is June 26th, meaning the season will have finished by the time he is eligible. If he were to join the active compLexity lineup and they simultaneously retain their spot, he would then be eligible to compete in Season 10.
