Mixwell benched from G2

teja

January 25, 2022

G2 Esports G2 Esports Inactive has benched Oscar "Mixwell" Cañellas, the last remaining player of the team's original lineup.

G2 m1xwell

@Mixwell

I'm officially benched from G2.

I have permission to search for options and I'm open to any offers.

For more information, please contact G2's Valorant Esports Manager @KNOK1 (zygimantas.krisciunas@g2esports.com)

Mixwell was part of G2's founding roster that dominated the European scene in the latter half of 2020. But the team began to struggle in the new year, leading to a series of roster moves—all of which Mixwell survived.

However, the addition of Cista "keloqz" Wassim prior to the start of Stage 3 shifted Mixwell from Duelist to Flex, a role which he has fulfilled until the start of 2022.

Mixwell returned to the Duelist mantle in the 2022 Challengers 1 closed qualifier, but G2 exited early after consecutive losses to Team Vitality Team Vitality Europe Rank #8 trexx Nikita Cherednichenko Derke Nikita Sirmitev Kicks Kimmie Laasner Sayf Saif Jibraeel Less Felipe de Loyola Basso and Alliance Alliance Inactive . keloqz returned in place of Mixwell for Challengers 2, where the team ultimately qualified for EMEA's Stage 1 Challenger event.

G2 Esports G2 Esports Inactive 's lineup is now:

Cista "keloqz" Wassim
Aaro "hoody" Peltokangas
Johan "Meddo" Renbjörk Lundborg
Auni "AvovA" Chahade
Žygimantas "nukkye" Chmieliauskas
Oscar "Mixwell" Cañellas (Substitute)

Imagine saying that in mid 2021 before he roleswapped, people would've thought he didn't know shit about Valorant, now they shower him with frags. The recency bias is strong on this one. If a Jett player doesn't fit the stereotype of a flashy and agressive young player they start malding.

First right decision done by G2. Now drop nukkye and keloqz and sign some real Pros who know what they do. They don't even try to trade or sell him. He is worth only a few Pesos.

Sure. You don't even know what makes someone a good Player. If you watch the whole trash EU Qualifier again you will see all the enemies G2 has was absolute no brainers or they gave them what they wanted like overpeeking and feeding a lot. Good Luck against Team who make you come to them and not the other way. Can't wait to see who they will blame next if they get 0:13 again like Irons.

True. Nukkye-Hoody-Avova is an awesome core, specially if Nukye is willing to flex to sova as he does now.

Kellogs and meddo are good at their roles, but kellogs overpeaks to death and meddo has a very predictable gameplay. A dedicated IGL would do this team wonders.

Agree, that 3 player core shouldn't be touched

Keloqz needs time and discipline
Meddo needs versatility and a wider agent pool, he is pretty good mechanically

He said something about joining NA orgs, but it's hard for him to leave his family and gf, he'll need to find an org for his gf and that's not what she wants (she works for Movistar Riders).

G2 is so mean. They waited until the beginning of the season to make this move?? They only allowed him to play 1 day when they have new coach/analyst/players/roles in the team, it’s senseless. That’s unfair for Mixwell. This is not about the discussion if Mixwell is better Jett than Kelloqz or not, it is about G2 could have bench him weeks ago but now there are not spaces left in any EMEA teams (maybe Heretics since al0rante left yesterday but idk). Mixwell has to be willing to move to NA, yes, he has his family and girlfriend in Spain but I don’t see options in EMEA in the short term.

Dude he got his chance to start with the roster. He failed to show himself and got dropped. It's that easy. He is not even 30 yo but plays already like a Super Boomer.

Can you tell me how he failed? He had similar stats than Kadavra in the Vitality match and he was the best in G2 in the Alliance match that day. So how did he fail? And I’m not talking about his Jett, as I say, they’re beginning with new coach, teammates and roles and with those stats you say he failed? He did not have a bad day to be benched. G2 knew they prefered Kelloqz more so they should have benched Mixwell weeks ago

#43

Because they were scared to loose both IGL and Captain at the same time. Mixwell was the only one who could IGL in this roster. And Keloqz and Nukkye didn't get along. So Jett was open and Mixwell was so desperate to play Jett again. So they gave him the chance to play again and he showed he was so far behind as a Jett compared to Keloqz and IGLing.(Not talking about kills but there was clearly a Jett diff in their 1st day)

People act like hes a horrible player just because hes not that great at Jett. News flash, Jett aint the only agent on the game and hes a decent player on other roles. No reason for him to retire from pro play just yet. Hope he finds some new life on another team.

Most guys shitting on him are trolls. However it is true that his potential streaming is large enough that any money he makes in pro play is little in comparison, barring a champions run with a nicely selling skin. Anywhere he goes he should be able to stream more and be under less pressure than his last 6 months in g2.

He’s pro play career has an end, his streaming one doesn’t, it’s not necessarily about money atp, even tho everyone has a prize obviously
