MIBR Announces drop and saffee!

MIBR has finalized their roster by signing André “drop” Abreu and Rafael “saffee” Costa, who were previously part of FURIA.

The announcement was made on Twitter. This move comes after MIBR decided to bench Matheus “Tuurtle” Anhaia and Henrique “HEN1” Teles, with drop and saffee taking their spots in the active roster.

MIBR‘s head coach, Bruno “BIT” Fukuda Lima, expressed that signing drop and saffee was a great opportunity in the market that they couldn’t ignore. He believes that the duo will fulfill the team’s needs both in-game and outside of the game.

“Being able to have drop and saffee on the team was a market opportunity that we couldn’t pass up and that in our eyes will meet many needs that the team needs both in-game and outside the game.

Saffee joins MIBR from FURIA following a disappointing 2023 season for the entire team. FURIA struggled to meet expectations and had a poor performance at the BLAST.tv Paris Major Legends Stage, finishing in last place. The tournament was particularly challenging for them, as they struggled on the T side and failed to reach double-digit scores on any map, highlighting their lackluster form.

Throughout 2023, saffee had a rating of 1.03, placing him in the middle of the pack among his team. Due to FURIA reportedly securing the signing of Gabriel “FalleN” Toledo, the organization decided to let saffee go, and he will now be taking over the AWP role from HEN1 at MIBR.

Drop had a difficult 2023 season with FURIA, struggling to find his form and achieving the lowest average rating on the team at 0.89. Despite initially joining FURIA as a promising graduate from their academy in August 2021, drop was unable to consistently perform at the level required to secure his place in the roster. As FURIA began rebuilding their team, drop made way for new additions.
