Ben Lyons Senior Editor 15 August 2022

The Houston Outlaws Overwatch League team has made the decision to release one of its tank players. Announced yesterday, before the final slate of matches for the week kicked off, the team revealed that Shin "PIGGY" Min-jun would be leaving the franchise.

"Once an Outlaw, always an Outlaw".

"Today we mutually agreed to part ways with @Piggy__OW. Piggy has been a stalwart line of defense for us during his time here and we can't wait to cheer him on wherever he goes next. Thank you, Piggy."

This comes shortly after the Outlaws signed Joseph "Lep" Cambriani and Tomas "Doge" Kongsøre to the team, with the latter coming in as a tank player. There has not been any mention as to what Piggy will do next, or where he will go.
