Two additions for the next North American stage

Spacestation Gaming announced Infekted and Galaa on October 5 ahead of OWCS North America's next stage. Contemporary reporting places Infekted alongside Hawk in the tank options and Galaa in a support line affected by Ultraviolet's move to Team Liquid. OWCS NA Stage 3 is scheduled to begin October 10.

The incoming players have different competitive backgrounds. Infekted previously played for Liquid, while Galaa comes from EMEA competition and most recently represented Spain at the World Cup. The signings therefore change both roster depth and the range of experience available to the team.

What to watch when the lineup plays

A tank addition can provide flexibility across maps and compositions without implying that the established player disappears from the lineup. A support change can require a new rhythm in positioning, resource use and communication. Those questions are answered by actual selections and matches, not merely by the announcement graphic.

The Season 5 patch arrives before the stage, adding another variable to that integration. Watch which hero combinations Spacestation uses, how it coordinates a defensive commitment and whether the backline can follow the tank's intended tempo. The organization's own announcement confirms the two signings; the linked roster report supplies the wider context. The cover is clearly credited editorial illustration, not a photograph of either player or a claim about their actual training room.
