Thomas "Thomas" Utting has announced on his social media that his team is leaving the 5W organization after a month of joining and are now looking for a new organization to perform with. According to Thomas, the 5W organization cheated them, "We are announcing that we are leaving 5W, we want to team up and find a new organization. 5W has unfortunately deceived us, reneged on their word and stopped all communication with the players."
In response to reports from Dust2.us editor Mnmzzz, Thomas spoke about the strange circumstances of the signing and said that the organization "paid several players an advance to sign a contract and then completely disappeared."

We are just looking for an opportunity to represent someone legit and prove we are capable of this on lan 💪🇬🇧
Asked about the owners' possible motives, Thomas expressed bewilderment, "From what we understand, they're millionaires, so money wasn't an issue. They just stopped answering the phone, fired our GM (the media manager was gone) and never responded again."
The team, now going by the name ex-5W, played just 14 maps as 5W at the $60,000 Regional Clash Arena Europe, where they defeated GamerLegion, 3DMAX and Gaimin Gladiators to win the tournament.
