Loading...@sam @Odd I cannot say exactly to the role, but the team as a whole believes this route is one they wanted to trial, and believe has higher potential. It could be wrong, and Cypher could be back in.

Why are we kicking Cypher ?

Loading...There's a number of factors at play. 1. We have very important tournaments right now which will massively impact our VRS ranking and which tournaments we get invited to in 2026. The way the system works now there's no RMR, means there's little downtime between events to keep ranking and grow it. 2. The team is trialing this change, and there is a world that we bring Cypher back if it doesn't work. 3. Jackasmo is someone we've been looking at for a long while, we see great potential with him. 4. We will always do whatever we can to make the roster as performant as possible. Sometimes these difficult decisions are whats needed. Cai has done an amazing job, and this is by no means and easy decision from the CS management, but it's one they discussed at length with the coaches and captain and decided to enact. He will continue to get the digital / sticker share, regardless if he doesnt end up playing, for all the hard work he's put in to get us this far.

Loading...@Masterrein How can you announce anything if its not confirmed. We can only announce when contracts are signed. If we update you with another 'theres more news coming, but we can't say anhything till its decided' you will just answer, 'this is a nothing post'. Its the CS offseason and its finishing within days... you will know when we've confirmed everything and prepared our annoucements.
