He was previously a free agent within the league\u2019s pool of players.\u00a0\u00a0 Lastro began his Overwatch League career on the Los Angeles Valiant, where he and the team\u2019s rookie-heavy roster made a big impression in 2020. While there were a few meme-related missteps along the way, Lastro was one of the more successful flex supports in the league that year.\u00a0 After the Los Angeles Valiant gutted its roster in early 2021 while moving to China, Lastro was picked up by the Toronto Defiant. He was a perpetual starter for the team, but the roster as a whole failed to measure up to the organization\u2019s expectations and nearly all of its players were dropped after the 2021 season. Lastro will join fellow flex support Kim \u201cIr1s\u201d Seung-hyun, formerly of the Atlanta Reign, in the Outlaws' support line. Houston retained DPS Dante \u201cDanteh\u201d Cruz and tank Shin \u201cPIGGY\u201d Min-jun for 2022 and added 2021 rookie of the year Oh \u201cPelican\u201d Se-hyun to the lineup. The team still likely needs a second tank and an extra support to fully fill out its roster for next year.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/31175948\/2019_S1W4D3_122542_Los-Angeles-Valiant-vs-Houston-Outlaws_Robert-Paul.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/486210"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1722"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=486210"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/486210\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":486219,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/486210\/revisions\/486219"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/156982"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=486210"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=486210"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=486210"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=486210"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=486210"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=486210"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=486210"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
