== {{Team/Aeonic}} ==

'''Aeonic''' is a new invite team led by veteran medic [[lucrative]], who has competed in ESEA since [[ESEA-I Season 4|Season 4]]. Aeonic formed hoping to win the invite poll with players [[mu]] and [[mausy]] from [[The Bugs]], as well as [[Hellbent]] from [[-bird noises-]]. They also bring in experienced ESEA-Invite soldier [[SureShot]], last seen in Invite playing for [[THE HURRICANE]] and round out the roster with [[split_]], who had played medic and scout in Intermediate previously. Aeonic originally lost the invite poll to [[dog2]], but following the death of [[Luca Goers]] they were granted an invite spot by ESEA administrators.

<br /><br />

Aeonic swapped their poll scout [[mu]] with [[ex]] on May 27th due to "cohesion issues" with mu.<ref name="Aeonic acquires ex">[http://www.teamfortress.tv/33888/ Aeonic acquires ex]</ref> ex was last seen on the roster of [[dog2]] before its disbanding on May 25th
