TuGuX exits Space Soldiers

16-11-2016 00:39

Tugay "TuGuX" Keskin has stepped down from Space Soldiers' active lineup, the player has confirmed to HLTV.org.

The 25-year-old had been part of Space Soldiers since January 2015, when he created a team with some of the best Turkish players after playing for a number of German sides, including logiX, Wild Fire and CPLAY.

During this period, Tugay "⁠TuGuX⁠" Keskin helped the team to establish itself as a force to be reckoned with in Europe, winning the CS:GO Champions League Season 3 and ASUS ROG Summer 2016.

TuGuX will take a break from gaming

In a statement to HLTV.org, TuGuX revealed that his relationship with a teammate broke down following the team's fourth place at the European Minor, which cost them a place at the ELEAGUE Major qualifier.

"After we could not get into the Major qualifier, I had some disagreements with one of the other players and, after that, I decided to leave the team," he said.

"I had a meeting with our management, they understood my request and accepted it.

"This has nothing to do with my individual performances as I sacrificed myself for the team and did many things for our young players to be able to play the way they wanted to. As such, it was, in my opinion, normal that I had worse numbers than I used to have.

"I am happy that we have achieved so many things for the Turkish scene as we started from zero, and I am sure that we will be able to achieve much more. There are only small things missing for the team to become even better.

"I will take a little break and then decide what to do. I would like to thank our CEO and founder, Bünyamin Aydin, for all his support, belief and vision. And I would also like to thank the management for their great job and our team manager and coach Canpolat "hardstyle" Yildiran, who kept the team together in tough situations and is a mentor.

"Lastly, I would like to thank everyone who has been supporting me. I had great moments during my time on Space Soldiers."

Engin "⁠MAJ3R⁠" Küpeli, who has played for Space Soldiers as a stand-in in Turkish league Euro Cups, is expected to be formally unveiled by the organisation in the coming days.

The Turkish team currently have:

Ismailcan "⁠XANTARES⁠" Dörtkardeş
Çağatay "⁠DESPE⁠" Sedef
Engin "⁠ngiN⁠" Kor
Ahmet "⁠paz⁠" Karahoca

gl hope you find good team TuGuX

Well I don't know if majer is an IGL, in 1.6 he was an aim god who'd carry his team along with sixer but I guess he has shit ton of more experience than anyone in Space Soldiers, so I guess he could do it

2016-11-16 12:45

he was igl at WC 2016

Ez Finally Full Turkish Roster, Tugux to penta maybe?

tugux is a turk who was born in germany

2016-11-16 01:02

he knows english, penta speaks english

2016-11-16 05:07

also german i guess since he was born there

2016-11-16 09:27

Yep, he played full german in css times

2016-11-16 10:23

He played with Turkish National CS Source Team btw :)

2016-11-16 17:50

First time I see XANTARES as Ismailcan. It was always just Can before

2016-11-16 00:57

tier 6 news noice

MAJ3r not much better...

2016-11-16 01:01

Guess gaming isnt his favorite

2016-11-16 01:16

Who and what did they argue about? Because they choked? Hohoo

2016-11-16 01:28

he was so shit anyway it was like 4v5 all the time but maj3r will not solve the problem either they need guy like Calyx, the kid did absolutely magic in the world championship.No offence but Tugux was the weakest player in that lineup

2016-11-16 01:47

2016-11-16 06:51

I'm french so i would be happy for MAJ3R if he had the opportunity to play for Space Soldiers, but it's basically the same as TuGux : 0.9x rating IGL type of player (correct me if i'm wrong TuGux was the IGL, it wasn't ngin right ?). Calyx on the other hand would bring massive skill but they would need to change roles.

2016-11-16 01:52

yes but xantares was IGLing lately

2016-11-16 05:15

I wish he would stay :/ Hopefully he will not stop playing. Tugux since you are free, Stream again

Basically trying to claim the reason Xantares is good is because Tugux sacrifices himself for it. What a mong, he was never good in CS:GO.

2016-11-16 01:56

+calyx

2016-11-16 02:01

congrats calyx

2016-11-16 02:18

How did it happen that Tugux and majer played in german and french teams before? Did they study in those countries or still live there?

2016-11-16 02:19

They were probably born in those countries as child of 2nd generation immigrants.

2016-11-16 02:54

tugay is well known in the german scene he is a good friend from gob

2016-11-16 06:29

Question was if he lived or lives in Germany ;)

2016-11-16 10:54

2016-11-16 05:10

i want calyx too but in the team atleast 1 guy should speak english well and it was tugux. now they need international player like MAJ3R and its perfect for them. hope we'll see calyx in space soldiers in the future

2016-11-16 05:18

But why he have to speak english?

2016-11-16 16:41

imagine you are going to LAN event in France but you and your 4 friends only know russian. this is why he has to speak english

2016-11-16 19:12

Tought hardstyle can speak english, or no?

2016-11-16 21:33

Their coach can speak English Calyx can't join SS cuz he is entry fragger

2016-11-16 09:16

RIP his cs career

2016-11-16 07:51

majer isnt any better. they will be shit again. tugux left because of xantares' ego. without tugux they couldnt be here today.

2016-11-16 08:35

Mini or calyx will be better than majer. Ngin can be igl.

2016-11-16 08:46

idk i thought its %99 majer?

2016-11-16 08:48

Its will be majer. Turks allways doing same mistakes. Its gonna be shit there no diff between majer and tugux. They need aggressive awper and not braindead lurker. If dp keep this lineup they would be better than ss.

2016-11-16 13:49

They will end like mousesports. They will play 1-2 good tournaments and that's it but with gob b they reached much more as a team.

2016-11-16 13:18

2016-11-16 11:44

Best Turkey lineup my ass. All you guys write is Calyx, mini woxic but what the fuck did they so far with Dark Passage? Exactly nothing. You list 3 people from DP but this team is bad. so how is this then the best lineup? You guys are really dreaming.

2016-11-16 13:16

DP only has Calyx others are trash but Calyx can't join SS

2016-12-18 06:19
