Eternal Fire announced on Twitter that Yasin “xfl0ud” Koç has been removed from the active roster of the CS:GO squad and put on the transfer list. Ali Haydar “Wicadia” Yalçın from Eternal Fire Academy Team will fill the spot as a stand-in.
According to xfl0ud’s tweet, the decision was given based on the role problems that the team is having. Since his signing date in October 2021, this is the third time xfl0ud has been benched from active status.
In the last tournament Eternal Fire participated in, the Turkish team disappointedly finished in 17-20th place in ESL Pro League Season 17 and failed to qualify for the Paris Major. The team’s last success was the CCT Central Europe Malta Finals 1 championship, which they won by defeating Bad News Eagles in the final, in February 2023.
Eternal Fire’s first game with the newest member Wicadia will be against Apeks in Brazy Party, on April 26.
