I mean, it wasn't nearly as bad as some people made it out to be, but it definitely wasn't anywhere near the game it was promised to be, so...

Interesting roster. Nexa and 4 youngsters. I expect f1ku will bounce back from his poor form, and CYPHER, Jimpphat and regali getting a shot on a bigger team will be fun to see.

Oh man, this sucks as an NA fan. Feels like Yekindar is pulling a leaf out of the book of LeGM. Patsi is a good player in a slump but he plays a lot of the same roles as Yekindar does. Rainwaker admittedly I don't know much about but I don't know if he was worth moving to EU for.

Honestly, shocked that Osee survived the roster shuffle. I guess Liquid would have to give up all of their HLTV/ESL ranking points if they switched out a third member, so I'm guessing it's sink or swim for Osee at Blast/Cologne.

I'd have to imagine retiring since he has a kid now and may want to spend time with his family, but not sure. Guess we'll have to wait for the official announcement.

 

Article:
According to sources close to the situation, Shahar "flameZ" Shushan is in the final stage of negotiations with Team Vitality. Previously we reported that flameZ has been exploring his options as his contract with OG expired.

If nothing abruptly changes, Shushan will soon join the French organization for the upcoming Counter-Strike season. According to our information, flameZ will replace Peter "dupreeh" Rasmussen in the roster.

In the past CS:GO season Vitality showed a tremendous performance. The French powerhouse managed to grab a victory at home ground, winning the last CS:GO Major, BLAST.tv Paris Major. Also, they won IEM Rio 2023 and took the second place at BLAST Premier Spring Finals.

Currently Vitality are #1 ranked team in the world both in ESL and HLTV ratings.

There's a lot of smoke about Perfecto and Electronic getting removed from Navi, wonder if it's true.

If it is, no way C9 don't jump on those two and cut Buster and Nafany. Not sure if all of the roles will be perfect 1 for 1, but the firepower on that roster would be ridiculous.
