00NATION, a well regarded Brazilian CSGO team, has made a shock roster update impacting the landscape of international Counter-Strike. A team that was home to the two-time Major legend Marcelo ‘coldzera’ David has now moved away from its Brazilian roots. Instead, they have moved to a fully European team.
Old Squad
- coldzera (Captain)
- latto
- dumau
- nqz
- NEKIZ
- cky (Coach)
New Squad
- birdfromsky (Captain)
- syrsoN
- JDC
- niko
- susp
- pita (Coach)
Although this servers as a surprise, it is still a fascinating new team that is already participating in tournaments. With well renowned syrsoN who has been an immense AWP’er, it will be very interesting to see how far this team can go. Clearly management of 00NATION are looking for results with this shift in dynamic and geography.
The announcement highlighted “Building two separate companies, one in Brazil and the other in Europe, caused great pressure on the teams and resources,”
“We came to the conclusion that it would make much more sense for Brazilian management and investors to take over Brazilian operations.”
What’s next for 00NATION?
There is clearly more in the works for the company. But for now the new 00NATION European squad are already participating in the Pinnacle Cup V. They have qualified for the Playoffs after making it through the Swiss stage in the $50,000 tournament.
