\n- Erik \u201cztr\u201d Gustafsson<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
For now, this is still not a fully completed rebuild, but the logic of the move itself is clear: FOKUS are entering the first serious roster update since the team\u2019s creation and have already been left without their captain.<\/p>\n
FOKUS are now:<\/p>\n

Passion UA<\/strong><\/h2>\nPassion UA have officially lost Vladyslav \u201cKvem\u201d Korol<\/a> after the expiration of his contract, and the player himself has already announced that he is entering the free-agent market.
\nFor now, this is not at the stage of a replacement or a ready-made transfer for his spot, but rather the end of the collaboration itself: in the provided excerpt, a new player and the updated full Passion UA roster have not yet been specified.<\/p>\nFaZe<\/strong><\/h2>\nFaZe have officially moved Helvijs \u201cbroky\u201d Saukants<\/a> to the bench and immediately filled his slot by loaning Jason \u201cJBOEN\u201d Boe<\/a> Nielsen from BIG Academy until the end of 2026.<\/p>\nIn:<\/p>\n

At this point, this is no longer at the rumor stage, but a completed move: FaZe removed broky from the starting lineup and placed their bet on one of the most notable young prospects ahead of the start of XSE Pro League.<\/p>\n

FaZe are not ruling out any options for themselves on the transfer market for now, but have already shown interest in Antonio \u201cMartinezSa\u201d Martinez<\/a> from Gentle Mates. According to information from KRL, which was also confirmed by HLTV, this transfer is not progressing easily because the French organization is simultaneously negotiating the sale of the entire Spanish roster to another club.<\/p>\nFor now, this is still not a completed transfer, but the logic of the move itself is clear: FaZe are keeping several scenarios open and are considering MartinezSa as one of the real candidates to strengthen the roster.<\/p>\nPhoto Copyright by StarLadder<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nG2<\/strong><\/h2>\nG2<\/a> have officially made a change at the AWPer position: the club moved \u00c1lvaro \u201cSunPayus\u201d Garc\u00eda to the bench and signed Artem \u201cr1nkle\u201d Moroz.

Since then, MOUZ have also confirmed the departure of former in-game leader Ludvig \u201cBrollan\u201d Brolin<\/a> after two and a half years with the club.

For now, this is still not a fully completed rebuild, but the logic of the move itself is clear: FOKUS are entering the first serious roster update since the team\u2019s creation and have already been left without their captain.<\/p>\n

Passion UA have officially lost Vladyslav \u201cKvem\u201d Korol<\/a> after the expiration of his contract, and the player himself has already announced that he is entering the free-agent market.
\nFor now, this is not at the stage of a replacement or a ready-made transfer for his spot, but rather the end of the collaboration itself: in the provided excerpt, a new player and the updated full Passion UA roster have not yet been specified.<\/p>\nFaZe<\/strong><\/h2>\n
FaZe have officially moved Helvijs \u201cbroky\u201d Saukants<\/a> to the bench and immediately filled his slot by loaning Jason \u201cJBOEN\u201d Boe<\/a> Nielsen from BIG Academy until the end of 2026.<\/p>\n

At this point, this is no longer at the rumor stage, but a completed move: FaZe removed broky from the starting lineup and placed their bet on one of the most notable young prospects ahead of the start of XSE Pro League.<\/p>\n
FaZe are now:<\/p>\n

FaZe are not ruling out any options for themselves on the transfer market for now, but have already shown interest in Antonio \u201cMartinezSa\u201d Martinez<\/a> from Gentle Mates. According to information from KRL, which was also confirmed by HLTV, this transfer is not progressing easily because the French organization is simultaneously negotiating the sale of the entire Spanish roster to another club.<\/p>\n
For now, this is still not a completed transfer, but the logic of the move itself is clear: FaZe are keeping several scenarios open and are considering MartinezSa as one of the real candidates to strengthen the roster.<\/p>\n

G2<\/a> have officially made a change at the AWPer position: the club moved \u00c1lvaro \u201cSunPayus\u201d Garc\u00eda to the bench and signed Artem \u201cr1nkle\u201d Moroz. The Ukrainian is set to make his debut for the new lineup at BLAST Bounty Season 2.<\/p>\n

3DMAX<\/a> made their second roster change in the last four months, benching Pierre \u201cEx3rcice\u201d Bulinge and then immediately signing Jeremy \u201cKursy\u201d Gast.

For now, this is still not a completed rebuild, but the logic of the move itself is clear: Luminosity want to return to CS quickly with an already prepared core rather than building a team from scratch.<\/p>\n
100 Thieves<\/strong><\/h2>\n
100 Thieves are in negotiations with Monte over the transfer of Jack \u201cGizmy\u201d von Spreckelsen, and if the deal goes through, he is expected to take over the captain\u2019s duties. At the same time, H\u00e5vard \u201crain\u201d Nygaard is not expected to leave the team, but only to move into a different role within the lineup.<\/p>\n
For now, this is still not a completed transfer, but the logic of the move itself is clear: 100 Thieves want to take the IGL duties off rain and add one of the most notable young captains outside the top tier of the scene to the project.<\/p>\n
