Rocket League pro Jack ‘ApparentlyJack’ Benton has joined Dignitas for the NA Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) Last Chance Qualifiers.
This will be the English pro’s third stint on Dignitas as he is listed as playing for the team on the LCQ’s Start.gg page.
ApparentlyJack is believed to have lost his spot on Geekay Esports following severe underperformances from the team.
He will now replace Jordan ‘Evoh’ Manle, who departed Dignitas earlier this month and is expected to join Gen.G Mobil1 Racing.

ApparentlyJack and Dignitas RLCS Woes
There were high expectations for the Geekay roster of ApparentlyJack, Joseph ‘Joyo’ Young, and Christian Fabricius ‘TempoH’ Mortensen.
Yet, the team failed to qualify for the Paris Major, crashing out of the Europe Open 5 early following a defeat to Kaydop Corp.
And earlier in the year, with former World Champion Enzo ‘Seikoo’ Grondein before he joined Manchester City, they crashed out of the Boston Major following a tight 4-3 loss to Karmine Corp.
Meanwhile, Dignitas, an organisation that has previously won an RLCS World Championship have also struggled in North America.
Dignitas returned to North America after qualifying for RLCS Worlds last year from Europe.
Yet, the organisation has failed to place higher than 5th-6th in all of the NA Open tournaments this year.
New Dignitas RLCS Roster
ApparentlyJack will now join up with Dignitas’ remaining players Logan ‘Fiv3Up’ Seaman and Bora ‘bora’ Sari.
Currently sitting in sixth in the North American RLCS rankings, Dignitas would have already been one of the favourites for the NA LCQ.
Now with a new signing, the pressure will be on the roster to perform above their previous results.
