===Recent Status===
Before the beginning of the 2021 season, the Angels, under Derasmo's decision, replaced the old Bot Roamer, 29 year-old Lyonel Thompson, with the younger Chloéois Louis Lejeune, a move which caused some controversy in the team as was disliked by several members of the team. Lejueune was a talented player and highly regarded in the Avatar scene, however, he was also known for having temperamental issues and other problems. Despite initial reluctance, the team was able to work well together, replicating the same success they had had the previous year on the local and regional level. After another successful season, they again dominated the Asteria Inferior championship, pushing them onwards again to the world championship in [[Bagabiada]] in [[Dezevau]].
Unlike the previous year, where the team was unknown and unproven, the Angels were considered a force to be reckoned with and a likely contender for the championship. The Angels pushed far ahead, winning their first five consecutive games and ultimately losing only 2 games in the Round Robin phase, putting them at a high 9-2 record. Thus they were ranked first in the elimination round, giving them an automatic bye in the eights and only requiring them to play in the quarters. After beating [[Mtel Lion City]] in the quarters, they earned another bye round until the finals.

The Mtel Lion City (Weranian: Mtel Lowënstadt), officially the M.Telcom Lion City Gaming (Weranian: M.Telecom Lowënstadt Gaming), is a professional esports team based in Nambabi, Maucha. With humble beginnings in a shared dorm close to the University of Nambabi, the 5 original members were all Challenger tier players of [Avatar (video game)|Avatar] and decided to enter a local amateur league organized by students. Their performance called the attention of multiple sponsors, including M.Telecom and L&L Investment Group that, in 2018, helped turning the team into the most successful esports team in Maucha. Mtel Lion City is a current participant and a finalist in the 2021 Avatar World Championship.
