G2 wants coach XTQZZZ and Aleksib for 2022 CS:GO roster

G2 has finalized the acquisition of Vitality coach Rémy “XTQZZZ” Quoniam to fill the void created by Damien “maLeK” Marcel’s departure in November, according to 1pv.fr. The experienced coach has spent the previous few weeks on the market since a package agreement was apparently negotiated for Danny “zonic” Srensen to join Vitality with Astralis duo Emil “Magisk” Reif and Peter “dupreeh” Rasmussen.

XTQZZZ‘s accession to G2 will be part of a wider revamp of the European side, which has already agreed on a transfer of former NAVI Junior prodigy Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov, according to a previous rumor from the same reports.

According to the same source, the organization has also set its sights on Aleksi “Aleksib” Virolainen, and discussions between G2 and OG over the transfer of the Finnish leader have begun. If the discussions are successful, Nemanja “nexa” Isakovi will be the one to make way for the newcomer.
