g3x unveil CS:GO team

28-8-2015 00:45

g3nerationX have announced they have made another foray into the Counter-Strike scene by signing a team with three former Made in Brazil players.

Back in May, HLTV.org reported that g3x - one of the most storied Brazilian organisations in the history of esports - were on the brink of returning to activity after an eight-year hiatus.

After picking up a League of Legends roster, g3x have now turned their attention to the Counter-Strike scene by signing a team who include former Made in Brazil trio Rafael "⁠pava⁠" Pavanelli, Bruno "⁠BIT⁠" Fukuda Lima and Jean-Michel "⁠mch⁠" D'Oliveira.

pava was part of the famous mibr roster that won CPL Brazil 2005 against United5 and that finished fifth at CPL Winter 2003 and sixth at WSVG 2006. BIT, on the other hand, only linked up with the organisation in 2007, when pava was no longer in the picture, and won a series of international events, including DreamHack Winter 2007, GameGune 2008 and Extreme Masters American Championships III and V as mibr/compLexity.

Rounding out the roster are Willian "⁠LuL4⁠" Elias, formerly of semXorah and paiN, and Vito "⁠kNgV-⁠" Giuseppe, who was part of Gabriel "⁠FalleN⁠" Toledo's first team in CS:GO, playArt.

According to g3x, the team's main goal is to compete in the biggest national tournaments, the first of which being the Brasil Mega Arena, from September 4-7 in São Paulo.

g3x's CS:GO team consist of:

Rafael "⁠pava⁠" Pavanelli
Bruno "⁠BIT⁠" Fukuda Lima
Jean-Michel "⁠mch⁠" D'Oliveira
Willian "⁠LuL4⁠" Elias
Vito "⁠kNgV-⁠" Giuseppe

Lol I do. I had 24,000 posts on gotfrag.Com Trust me, I know shaguar from noa, eg, zex, 3d. The mibr I remember is kikooo, cogu, nak, fnx and bit1. Maybe gaules from g3x.

2015-08-28 01:49

nevermind I read something wrong

2015-08-28 01:55

pava was fairly known back then, he also played on mibr. The other 3 are more of a "new generation"... maybe more since 2010.

2015-08-28 03:02

Original MiBr is pava Kiko nak cogu fnx

2015-08-28 10:40

they are playing, tring br tournaments, but now i think is serious

2015-08-28 01:22

Kng was beast in last 1.6 times in brazil, rest is average

As the G3X joined MIBR, the Brazil finally won a major. elemeNt joined mibr once as well.

2015-08-28 01:39

Glad to see that kng is back

2015-08-28 01:50

kng was probably the 2nd best player in Brasil in the last 1.6 year, is he anygood on cs:go? Pava wasn't even active on 1.6 why he comeback? And bit is a bot btw...

2015-08-28 01:59

player ? you mean awper ? yeah thats right

2015-08-28 02:29

as an all, if i'm not mistaken, they won the last Br tournament, he rekted fallens team, that had bot bit1 and bot bruno1 aka ellllbot

2015-08-28 02:33

yes i know he is a good player, but not 2nd best player, probably 2nd best awper

2015-08-28 03:52

kNg played the MLG XGAMES qualifier back in december, and did great for who gets 1 week of training, hope this team dont disband in one month

2015-08-28 05:05

bit can become quite good at CSGO if he wants

Tactics from NA?

2015-08-28 03:53

Ayyy

2015-08-28 04:21

l m a o

2015-08-28 05:27

The current GamesAcademy team, some months ago was in same level them the actual LG, including wining some final events. Belive.. They'll really surprise the NA scene.

2015-08-28 15:54

They don't seem special to me. Have they ever even played keyd?

2015-08-28 17:54

How I said, they playd against Keyd in some final events in Brazil (before keyd gone to USA), and won the last 2 of this events. In other words, when Keyd left to USA, maybe they wasn't the bestest in Brazil. The differenc is: Zqk was in Keyd, and now is Cold Cold was in GamesAcademy, and now is Shoowtime Ok.. Cold is really better than Shoowtime, but the team still is really strong and you'll see soon

2015-08-28 19:57

Honestly, they were at the same level back then. Now with cold, LG has the upper hand, but Shoowtime isnt bad at all. In a matchup between them, everyone obviously expects LG to win, but it wouldnt be a safe bet.

2015-08-31 03:30

pava = cocaine xDDDDDDD

2015-08-28 03:36

cool.. gl

2015-08-28 03:47

Waiting for the fanboys thinking this is a good lineup for CS:GO,just waiting for the naive fanboys who believe they are going to perform just like they did in 1.6 fucking 10 years ago.

2015-08-28 04:04

Pava I miss you. Very happy you're back. Look me up on steam and we'll catch up. Best of luck!

2015-08-28 04:08

2015-08-28 04:19

omg

2015-08-28 04:23

Any of the brazilian guys has seen kNg playing csgo recently? If the guy is as good as he was in 1.6... beware! He was together with FalleN my favourite brazilian player. Fearless gameplay and insane awp!

He was playing on 2013 I think. He was one of our best players back then. Our scene wasn't so good though. I don't know anything about him recently

2015-08-28 04:32

Yes, he is very good

2015-08-28 13:51

Kng is alive? Lol Gl, nice oldschool team

2015-08-28 04:25

wow pava and bit are back to it GL boys I've watched some streams from pava and he's a cool guy. Best of luck!
