JT: Passion UA Are 'In Limbo' as Atlanta Exit Caps a Year of Roster Churn

Passion UA captain JT admits the project is stuck in limbo after another last-place exit, with sdy only three days into practice before IEM Atlanta.

JT: Passion UA Are 'In Limbo' as Atlanta Exit Caps a Year of Roster Churn

Passion UA captain Johnny ‘JT’ Theodosiou put the team’s situation in plain language after the IEM Atlanta 2026 exit: ‘Right now we’re kinda just in limbo.’ The international roster finished last with losses to NAVI and SINNERS, extending a year defined by roster churn, short practice windows, and inconsistency in the moments that count.

The roster churn problem

The visible damage: Azbayar ‘Senzu’ Munkhbold left on loan to BC.Game after a short but high-rated Passion UA run. JT earlier admitted the team ‘don’t even have three weeks of practice with Senzu’ before that move. Then Viktor ‘sdy’ Orudzhev came in on loan from ENCE shortly before Atlanta — coach T.c confirmed they had only a few days with him.

What JT actually rates about sdy

Despite the time gap, JT singled out sdy’s communication, experience, and previous IGL background as a stabilising influence in stressful moments. The captain framed sdy’s arrival as a positive addition during a difficult period — but a structural identity built on a five-day loan isn’t the foundation a Tier-1 project needs.

What’s next

Passion UA still have individually talented players — JT’s read is that the long-term future depends on the organisation finalising a permanent starting five and giving them practice time. Until that happens, the limbo continues. The Atlanta exit is another data point, not a verdict — but the season is running out of recovery windows.
