Wxltzy Speaks Out: In the world of esports, few things hit harder than seeing a talented roster fall short of its true potential. For Team Falcons’ Apex Legends squad, that story has unfolded in the most dramatic way possible. After months of speculation, Ben “Wxltzy” Walton has finally spoken about the turbulence inside the camp, confirming that internal struggles were at the heart of their downfall and ultimately led to Rhys “Zer0” Perry being benched.
Falcons’ Rollercoaster Run in ALGS Pro League
Team Falcons entered the ALGS Split 2 Pro League Americas with expectations sky high. Fans believed the roster, stacked with talent, had all the tools to dominate. But the reality was much harsher.
Week 1 saw the Falcons finish 10th, with only a single top three placement to show for six games. Week 2 went even worse, as they stumbled to 15th, collecting just 23 points across the series. It was a frustrating start for a team capable of so much more.
Their final outing together, however, gave fans a glimpse of what might have been. On September 14, the Falcons finished second overall, powered by a breathtaking game five that saw them rack up 11 kills and 23 points. For Zer0, it was a bittersweet farewell a reminder of the brilliance the team could achieve when everything clicked.
Wxltzy Breaks His Silence
After the dust settled, Wxltzy finally revealed the truth behind the scenes.
“Pretty disappointing way to finish with this team. We have had the best year of any team so far without ever reaching our peak. Too many internal issues constantly stopped us from improving,” he admitted.
While his words confirmed the long suspected tension between players, they also carried a mix of pride and hope. “Happy with what we achieved in the time we were together and definitely wish it didn’t go this route. In saying that, I’m excited for the future with Hal as IGL and wish Zer0 the best with his new roster.”
Wxltzy’s candid comments add weight to what both Phillip “ImperialHal” Dosen and Zer0 had previously hinted at in cryptic social media posts. With ImperialHal now officially stepping into the IGL role, fans are eager to see how this new chapter unfolds.
What’s Next for Falcons and Zer0?
The Falcons’ journey is far from over. They sit in 4th place in the ALGS Pro League Americas standings with three rounds remaining still within striking distance of glory. Their next challenge comes on September 29, by which time the team is expected to announce a new third player to join Wxltzy and ImperialHal.
Meanwhile, all eyes are on Zer0’s future. A player of his caliber will not be without suitors, and speculation is already building about which organization he might join next. His departure from Falcons may just be the spark that sets the stage for another dramatic rivalry in the Apex Legends scene.
Closing Thoughts
For Falcons fans, the past few weeks have been a whirlwind of emotions hope, frustration, and now cautious optimism. Internal conflicts may have robbed this roster of its peak, but the arrival of ImperialHal as leader could mark the beginning of a bold new era. As for Zer0, his next move will be just as fascinating to watch.
One thing is certain: the Apex Legends competitive scene is about to get even more intense.
