Kilo has left the San Francisco Shock

The 2022 Overwatch League runner-up franchise only has a few renaming players at this point.
Ben Lyons Senior Editor 18 November 2022

This current Overwatch League offseason might just be the busiest yet. It feels like every franchise is either looking to make radical changes or seeing player contracts coming to an end, meaning the free agent market is crammed full of talent right now.

While we've already talked about the departures on the San Francisco Shock, now we can add another name to that list, as Jung "Kilo" Jin-woo will also be leaving the former two-time champions and 2022 runner-up, leaving just three active players on the team.

As the Shock has been consistently one of the best OWL teams for a lot of the league's history, we have no doubt that head coach Park "Crusty" Dae-hee already has a plan in place for rebuilding the team and being a top competitor when the 2023 season kicks off.
