Philadelphia Fusion宣布釋出三名選手，分別是DPS選手George “ShaDowBurn” Gushcha，輔助選手Joe “Joemeister” Gramano和Jeong-Hwan “DayFly” Park。
Shadowburn是舉世聞名的源氏選手，但他在第二階段之後就被令人驚豔的DPS新星EQO所取代。Joemeister從來未有過正賽的上場機會，而Dayfly也只有為數不多的登場時間。
The Fusion have released Georgii "ShaDowBurn" Gushcha, Joe "Joemeister" Gramano, and Jeong-Hwan "DayFly" Park.
Our success in the inaugural OWL season could not have been achieved without their dedication. They will always be part of the Fusion family and we wish them the best.

傳言猜測ShaDowBurn會被Dallas Fuel收入囊中，因為在Seagull退役之後Fuel缺乏使用彈道英雄的選手。ShaDowBurn也在discord裡發過一個Dallas Fuel的表情，但隨即就說自己是在開玩笑，實際上沒有任何計劃。
