Adam "Jesse" Čtvrtníček and Fabián "Quick" Pereira round out the roster. Jesse last played for UCAM as a stand-in, reaching top six in the GameGune 24 and winning the Fragleague Cup 5 to close out the year. Quick last played for Movistar Riders in the LVP Rising Series Finale, where he finished second, and the GameGune 24, where he placed in the top eight.
Coaching the squad will be Tanishq "Tanizhq" Sabharwal, who has been looking for a team since mid-October. The British coach had been seeking offers ever since September and now reunites with russ under a new name.
On January 9, Fit1nho, Quick, and former Giants coach Lucas "HITBOXKING" González-Sabariegos will host a special Q&A stream on HITBOXKING's Twitch channel. Giants' debut is scheduled for January 10, in the open qualifier of Stage 1: Challengers 1.
