chelo set to join NTC

16-4-2018 12:38

Luminosity star Marcelo "chelo" Cespedes is on the brink of joining Não Tem Como, HLTV.org has confirmed.

The move, which was first reported by Teamplay.com.br, is all but finalised and will finally bring to an end Não Tem Como's search for two new players, which began last month, when the team parted ways with Henrique "⁠HEN1⁠" Teles and Lucas "⁠LUCAS1⁠" Teles.

Marcelo "⁠chelo⁠" Cespedes, 19, is widely regarded as one of the hottest Brazilian young talents. He joined Luminosity in July, together with Gabriel "⁠NEKIZ⁠" Schenato, and ended 2017 as the team's highest-rated player on LAN (1.03), raising eyebrows especially at the ESL Pro League Season 6 Finals, where he averaged a 1.34 rating.

chelo is on his way out of Luminosity

He will not be the only Luminosity member to join NTC, however, as Alessandro "⁠Apoka⁠" Marcucci, who has been the team's coach since August, will be taking the reins of the SK-linked squad.

It is currently unclear whether chelo will travel to Germany, where the Não Tem Como squad have been bootcamping for over a month now, as the team will be competing in the South American closed qualifier for ESL One Belo Horizonte, which will begin on April 24.

With these two additions, NTC's squad will look as follows:

Bruno "⁠BIT⁠" Fukuda Lima
Lincoln "⁠fnx⁠" Lau
João "⁠felps⁠" Vasconcellos
Vito "⁠kNgV-⁠" Giuseppe
Marcelo "⁠chelo⁠" Cespedes

Alessandro "⁠Apoka⁠" Marcucci (coach)

NOT EXPECTED?!?!

THIS TEAM IS A JOK

It actually sounds pretty dope tbh

Uk scene is a joke. This team has potential to be tier 1.

2018-04-16 15:47

both true but this team is still a jok

i have to agree with you, a team with bit can't be tier1

2018-04-17 14:42

2018-04-16 16:20

Really?

2018-04-16 16:32

They were kicked last month

2018-04-16 12:43

yeah but why?

2018-04-16 12:47

cuz brazilians are toxic by nature

2018-04-16 12:50

2018-04-16 13:00

true tho

2018-04-16 13:12

Bring our gold back, and we can discuss it.

2018-04-16 16:14

2018-04-17 02:28

Nobody explained exactly why, but it was after they lost a qualify

But were the twins resposible for that loss? I've never thought about that.

2018-04-17 02:35

I dont know bro, just remember it was after the qualify

2018-04-17 02:37

Fight

2018-04-16 13:45

OMG... I got baited by this or otherwise this is the dumbest post ever

2018-04-16 12:48

Fnx stopped following hen and lucas from isntagram.and he dont even go with them anymore anywherr,he have in story always only bit and kng.

2018-04-16 13:36

where is steel ?? wtf

Wont play with kng and fnx

I understand, thanks.

2018-04-16 13:10

Steel is bad, dude. NTC wouldnt sign him. But he seems to be a decent igl, maybe he can replace chelo on LG and help them play as team.

2018-04-16 15:50

Brazil new #1 LUL

i aren't think that

-bit +steelega br numba wan again

steelega never play again with fnx

Why? I dont remember

2018-04-16 15:01

Steel to FaZe

2018-04-16 12:46

but he still in Torqued

HLTV confirmed

NoT expeCted

I wonder which gf gets f***ed by fnx in this roster

2018-04-16 12:55

U mean mothers and gfs?

2018-04-16 13:19

felps looking worried

2018-04-16 14:26

rip hen1 and lucas1

2018-04-16 12:56

ris* (rest in shit)

2018-04-16 13:49

Hahahahahahahaha

2018-04-16 15:14

unexpected!! GL to brazilian coldzera

2018-04-16 12:58

-bit +steel

Strong team

Who cares about that team for real? Even if I like fnx and felps, kNg is a NoGo

2018-04-16 13:04

Kng only real player in this team tho

2018-04-16 13:23

fnx and felps i guess are solid too

2018-04-16 13:29

was a solid player, mediocre now cuz he play while beating the meat

2018-04-16 13:30

The entire core except for bit has such a good individual potential and firepower. kNg is by far the best sniper they could've ever gotten and he might even be on of the most consistent carriers in the team.

Kng very good sniper why hate

2018-04-16 13:50

butthurt thorin fan

2018-04-16 14:45

He might be a solid sniper, still he's behaving like a little boy who don't get his candies. And no I'm not a Thorin Fan. Just don't see a bad role model like him as a "professional" player.

2018-04-16 22:23

-chelo -fnx -bit1 +LUCAS1 +HEN1 +steel

2018-04-16 13:05

Good player but steel would be much better imo

chelo>>steel any day

poor felps !

2018-04-16 13:16

Nice gl

2018-04-16 13:21

Damn, starting to look like a serious project now good luck

coldzera 2.0 ? why downgrade? i don't think he needs TACO to play good

2018-04-16 13:24

disband next month, fnx fukd kng gf kng kills fnx, end of the fuckin project

lmao hahahahah

2018-04-16 13:51

2018-04-16 14:18

lol its funny cuz its true

2018-04-17 02:31

Oh shit. good move

lucas is good but hen1 is absolutely overrated kng and that guy are definitely not a downgrade

yea i think it might be a better team than with hen1 and lucas1 inside and outside the game

They're an upgrade. Chelo is an upcoming star and he has shown incredible potential in LG already and kNg is probably Brazils second best awper just next to fallen. Besides, he can also rifle quite well. Definitely an upgrade if you know all 4 of them.

+1 hen1 sucks if that team works, they can be easily top5 Immortals didnt work cuz hen1's inconsistency.. When kng joined the team, when hen1 couldnt perform he carried them

2018-04-16 16:28

why is ntc so long in germany for bootcamp lol and dont they have to go back to brazil for the qualifier?

2018-04-16 13:27

To focus, dude. And the qualifier is on next week. They have time yet.

2018-04-16 21:24

2018-04-16 13:28

They basically garantee that they will qualify for Belo Horizonte by taking the opponent players

2018-04-16 22:10

who

2018-04-16 13:38

I hope this lineup fucking works dude, I'd love to see kng reinvent his cs career as a serious talent. The rest of the lineup looks pretty damn good too.

Lets hope it works

2018-04-16 16:19

I hope this lineup works. They have the potential. kNg just needs to work on his ego.

2018-04-16 13:42

apoka picture lmao looks like he is dead person :-/ put some color on it bro

2018-04-16 13:44

hahhahahahahahahahaha LMAO! Looks like he's wanted too.

2018-04-16 16:33

OMFG EZZZZZZZ FOR NTC BRO CHELO THE BEST PLAYER IN BRAZILIAN

It will work kNg just tweeted that he started anger management and joined AA anonymous alcoholics

Just -bit +steel, and they r ready to go

2018-04-16 13:52

COACH -apoka +Potti

2018-04-16 14:01

better squad than faze at least

DAMN good move i hope this work out... chelo is a beast

2018-04-16 14:32

Probably the best player avaliable for them. I can see a bright future, if they dedicate themselves

2018-04-16 14:44

Chelo is insane - easily one of the best players that is innately available to take. Should be a great team!!

2018-04-16 14:51

omg. Looks so strong now! How about bit? I hope he's in good shape.

2018-04-16 14:53

ntc best cs go team in brazil soon NA nice move ))))

#1 br team! Not sure about signing apoka though. LG players seem to be good individually but have been failing to play well as a team. I dont think he is a good coach.

2018-04-16 15:16

ntc and imt destroying teams since 2017

2018-04-16 15:27

Noice, EZ TIER 2

2018-04-16 15:31

Thats interesting

2018-04-16 15:38

Should have taken steel.

2018-04-16 15:49

still noob team with bit and fnx

OMG EZ FOR MY BOI chelo THE BRAZILIAN TACO XDDD

2018-04-16 15:56

Twins + Steel + Horvy + Showtime + Zakk to LG?

2018-04-16 15:58

The twins and steel together ? I don’t think so

2018-04-16 16:29

I'm too.. but in LG org. or Shoowtime, Yel, Nekiz, Horvy, Steel + zakk coach

2018-04-16 16:49

Why would you want to have kng in your team if he will not be able to play in every tournament?

2018-04-16 16:12

why ? he is not banned lol

He can't get visa to USA and probably to other countries as well.

2018-04-16 16:38

Who said that? The problem that he had tourist visa... now he needs player visa.... in 100t the visa problem was the documentation of 100t non the players...

2018-04-16 19:23

EZ for FNX

2018-04-16 16:15

these guys are doing what SK shouldve done ages ago..... tourneys will be more competitive now

2018-04-16 16:36

this could be a semi good team tho

2018-04-16 16:37

lucan, hen1, steel, trk leftovers.

2018-04-16 16:39

now -bit +steel plz

2018-04-16 16:48

steel or horvy to LG

bit coach and +steel top10 team

2018-04-16 17:03

LG +trk

steel won't join these guys, wake up guys, get a fucking clue. There are personal problems.

2018-04-16 17:18

So, now we have: fnx = fnx Bit1 = Fallen (Fallen way way better, but...) Felps = Fer kNgV = Taco (they play different roles, but...) Chelo = coldzera I think the owner of SK brand, if this team doesnt disband, will be very satisfied!

2018-04-16 17:20

rip felps then ..... xxFdD xD

Felps has the potential, and is gonna be the #1 in the world, when he joins a team with professionals and not boys. The only reason he wasnt the #1 in SK, was because Fer already was there

2018-04-16 18:21

fnx = fnx bit1 < Fallen Felps = fer Kngv > Taco Chelo < Cold potential top 10 anyway.

2018-04-16 21:06

fnx = fnx bit1 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Fallen Felps < fer Kngv > Taco Chelo < Cold

2018-04-16 23:20

I really think Felps is already better than Fer. It is hard to say, but if Felps is the star of the brand, he is the better.

2018-04-17 08:07

chelo is not entry? chelo >>> Taco

2018-04-16 21:28

good player good luck..

2018-04-16 17:36

omg, coldzera favorite!

EZ TOP1

2018-04-16 17:44

2018-04-16 17:45

Top 15 ez

Marcelo "chelo" Cespedes, 19, is widely regarded as one of the hottest Brazilian

hell yeah, nice team!

2018-04-16 17:46

chelo is an amazing player, but i hope to see isurus qualyfing, though its almost impossible xd

2018-04-16 17:49

nice now search a real good player not bit pls

+1 bit is bad.

2018-04-16 17:58

Hen1 Lucas Steel Horvy Destiny Confirmed?

Don't like the move for Chelo. he's a great player, think he could do better than to play for a team where half it's players cant get into the US

Who said that? They need an organization to get visa... 100t had problems with documentation of organization... thats why they didnt got the visa for major

2018-04-17 03:06

Exactly. They had problems in the past trying to get a Visa, while Luminosity has been on top for lately. SK is rumored to be searching a Brazilian team for when the current team joins Immortals. That team would be the best spot for chelo

2018-04-17 05:06

On paper this line up is even better than it was with the twins. I just hope they manage kng to behave like a normal person.

2018-04-16 18:10

ez tier 5

they look pretty cool! I wish them the best! Let's go Brazil, we can do it! We smart, we loyal, we friendly, we are from BRAZIL! Kreygasm

2018-04-16 18:17

Some brasilian called here yesterday actually

2018-04-16 18:37

Chelo the new coldzera.

2018-04-16 18:39

-1 trk >>>>> chelo

2018-04-16 19:02

trk > chelo

2018-04-16 19:18

disagree, turks < chelo

2018-04-16 21:42

Nice

2018-04-16 19:07

the chelo is veryyy talented, excellent acquisition of the NTC, is a phenomenal player, magnificent, congratulations NTC, if you can bring the LG 'nekiz' or the '' TRK '' of team one as well and put the bit in the reserve that it's perfect

2018-04-16 19:16
