In a surprising move, Justin Rabackoff, also known as J-Rab, has parted ways with AC Diesel after just one year. The departure was unexpected, considering initial plans for a longer stay with the team. While the reasons remain unclear, one can only hope that J-Rab secured a substantial six-digit salary with his new team, the Russian Legion, now often referred to as Red Legion.
This marks J-Rab’s second stint with the Russian Legion, having previously joined them in 2008, possibly during his breakout year in 2009. The Legion, though middle-of-the-pack in the past season, boasts a formidable roster with players like Alexander Berdnikov, Pavel Karsliev, and the potential return of Leonid Smotrov. Despite J-Rab facing knee issues in the previous year, his addition is expected to be a significant boost for Red Legion.

Simultaneously, the Los Angeles Ironmen roster has undergone significant changes, with notable pickups such as Henry Sentz and Stephen Omara from Baltimore Revo. Omar, known for his aggressive playstyle, is anticipated to be a key offensive player for the Iron Men. The team has also added Scott Graham, a quick and dedicated player, along with other strategic acquisitions like Zac Geiger and Damien Vasquez.
The Ironmen’s reshaped lineup reflects a deliberate effort to rebuild and improve, parting ways with some longstanding players like Al Fernandez. The changes aim to create a cohesive and competitive team for the upcoming season, injecting excitement into the paintball league.
