The all-female lineup that was formerly known as Asteria has departed from Velocity Gaming, with the players becoming free agents again.
INDIA — Asteria will once again seek backing after parting ways with Velocity Gaming. The all-female team has expressed their desire to remain together heading into the upcoming VCT Game Changers APAC Stage 2 under the Asteria banner until they find a new tag to represent.
Neha “CaspeR” Sottany and co. joined the ranks of Velocity Gaming just two weeks before the commencement of VCT Game Changers SEA – FSL Elite, placing 5th-6th in the region’s most important Game Changers tournament last year.

The news marks an end to a five-month association with the all-female squad. “Thank you VLT Asteria for being part of Velocity Gaming. Velocity Gaming wishes everyone all the best for their future endeavors.” the organization announced in a brief statement.
