Extra Salt add junior, Grim to FunSpark ULTI Finals roster

The pair link up with the three remaining Extra Salt players ahead of their impending move to Complexity.

Extra Salt have announced the addition of Michael "⁠Grim⁠" Wince and Paytyn "⁠junior⁠" Johnson to their roster for the upcoming FunSpark ULTI Finals, completing the lineup for the event following the release of Edgar "⁠MarKE⁠" Maldonado and departure of Josh "⁠oSee⁠" Ohm to Liquid.

HLTV.org knows that the duo have not signed with Extra Salt as the entire team are still set to complete a move to Complexity. They are set to depart for Europe shortly for the eight-team event, where Extra Salt hold a spot after finishing as the runners-up in the 2020 Europe Final.

Grim will look to return to his prior form as he embarks on a new journey

The move reunites junior and Grim after the duo previously played together on Triumph in 2020, rising to notoriety on the lineup ahead of their respective pickups to FURIA and Liquid.

Neither player found success on their new teams though, with FURIA struggling to adapt to a language change while Liquid experienced internal issues with in-game leadership changes and ill-adapted roles, leading to roster changes by the end of the year.

After his benching from FURIA midway through 2021, junior played for Bad News Bears, with whom he averaged a 1.26 rating. Grim, meanwhile, averaged a 1.02 rating during his time with Liquid, form which he will look to improve upon with new teammates in tow.

The team's lineup for FunSpark ULTI Finals is:

Johnny "⁠JT⁠" Theodosiou
Justin "⁠FaNg⁠" Coakley
Ricky "⁠floppy⁠" Kemery
Paytyn "⁠junior⁠" Johnson
Michael "⁠Grim⁠" Wince

Tiaan "⁠T.c⁠" Coertzen (coach)
