GIANTX GIANTX Europe Rank #18 purp0 Semyon Borchev Cloud Kirill Nehozhin have benched in-game leader Igor "Redgar" Vlasov. UCAM Esports Club UCAM Esports Club Europe Rank #15 Flickless Karel Maeckelbergh bucher Maximilian Bucher Quick Fabián Pereira YuNo Eloy García Burgueño 's Ramses "Famsii" Valentino Erasmus Koivukangas will be his replacement for the foreseeable future.

The former Gambit Esports Gambit Esports Inactive Redgar Igor Vlasov Chronicle Timofey Khromov d3ffo Nikita Sudakov sheydos Bogdan Naumov nAts Ayaz Akhmetshin in-game leader led his team to stellar achievements in 2021 by winning Masters: Berlin and taking second at Champions 2021. After the squad disbanded in 2022, Redgar went to Team Liquid Team Liquid Europe Rank #22 nAts Ayaz Akhmetshin Keiko Georgio Sanassy kamo Kamil Frąckowiak ahead of the EMEA Partnership League. The Liquid roster participated in all international events during 2023, with a top-six finish in Masters: Tokyo as their best achievement for the year. Redgar moved to GIANTX ahead of the 2024 season.

GIANTX's season in 2023 culminated in a Champions appearance, where they exited the group stage with a 1-2 record. Their 2024 endeavor has been lackluster, having made an early exit in EMEA Kickoff and winning only a single match in Stage 1. GIANTX are in dire straits for playoffs, but their two victories in Stage 2 have given them a footing.

UCAM Esports picked up Famsii as their main duelist in 2023. The roster made their impact as a powerhouse in VCL Spain, finishing third in both splits. UCAM have maintained their momentum from last year as they are currently in playoffs.

GIANTX need to win their remaining games for a chance at playoffs. Their first obstacle to overcome is Team Heretics Team Heretics Europe Rank #1 MiniBoo Dominykas Lukaševičius Wo0t Mert Alkan RieNs Enes Ecirli benjyfishy Benjamin David Fish Boo Ričardas Lukaševičius on July 3.

Ramses "Famsii" Valentino Erasmus Koivukangas
Semyon "purp0" Borchev
Adolfo "Fit1nho" Gallego

Yeah it's not the best for UCAM because he will most likely practice with GX I imagine but still.

And yes it can be done because UCAM is GX's partnered team, so all UCAM players are 2 way, they can go up and down freely. Like an Nba 2 way contract if it makes sense

I don’t think they had even made the announcement, it’s been leaked for a long time but never confirmed. UCAM CEO did say it in an interview but that’s about it, but yeah it should be more clear

I think FNC has a partnership with Mandatory? And there might be 1 more in EMEA but that’s about it

Lev has one with Furious gaming I think? Those are the only ones I know of

Liquid has some sort of partnership with Apeks with Soulcas becoming a two way player for them if I'm not wrong

Famsii is a great player and won't be surprised if he is picked up for tier 1 next year. But debuting 2 games against FUT and TH is criminal

purp0 was also Initiator before and can play Sentinel, too. They could even go for 2 of the other biggest EMEA talents, but I guess kaajak and Ruxic waiting for a bigger team to sign them.

bro Ruxic and Kaajak are insane i hope they dont get fumbled and get a proper team like imagine 100T with Ruxic as smokes for Bang and Kaajak goes Flex for Asuna, with Boostio they would be unbeatable imo

Purp0 was main initiator in KPI, i always thought it was rare that he signed as a duelist in Giants.

I don't really like judging players just off of the scoreboard but after an 8/37 with no significantly impressive IGLing to back it up I think Redgar deserved the boot here.

GX throwing Famsii to the sharks, he has to play TH and FUT as a new pickup? hopefully they don't set their expectations too high. That being said, GX desperately needs a full rebuild. there are prob people more knowledgable than me about whether or not Pipson is worth keeping, but they need to rebuild around cloud and purp0. Fiti maybe can stay too, he's been playing better recently

edit: rhyme lowkey made this team great, wish he came back
