Official: Renegades sign liazz and Gratisfaction

1-10-2018 05:37

Renegades have officially announced the additions of Jay "⁠Liazz⁠" Tregillgas and Sean "⁠Gratisfaction⁠" Kaiwai to their starting roster.

The announcement takes place a few days after the aforementioned duo joined the Australian squad's ESEA roster last Friday, filling up the void left by Noah "⁠Nifty⁠" Francis and Karlo "⁠USTILO⁠" Pivac on the active lineup.

Gratisfaction has been regarded as one of New Zealand's top players, specialising in the AWPing department, which will be the 22-year-old's position on the new team, holding a 1.27 rating to his name in 2018 so far.

liazz and Gratisfaction have officially joined Renegades

Alongside the former Grayhound member, ORDER officially announced their farewells to the Australian prodigy Liazz prior to Renegades' post, who has been a part of the original Kings roster since June 2017, which later became ORDER's first Counter-Strike division in January this year onwards.

The 21-year-old Aussie talent caught the eyes of thousands during the IEM Sydney 2018 series against ELEAGUE Major 2018 Champions Cloud9, where he had a 1.46 rating following the 1-2 defeat.

The two Oceanic players will join the rest of the Renegades crew in Detroit, in preparation for their upcoming events, where they will debut against eUnited in ESL Pro League Season 8 North America on Wednesday, followed by ECS Season 6 North America's kick-off a day later.

Their first LAN appearance with the new faces will be StarSeries i-League Season 6 in Kiev, Ukraine on October 7-14. It has been hinted that a coach will be announced soon, to guide them in the right direction.

Renegades' roster is now:

Justin "⁠jks⁠" Savage
Aaron "⁠AZR⁠" Ward
Joakim "⁠jkaem⁠" Myrbostad
Sean "⁠Gratisfaction⁠" Kaiwai
Jay "⁠Liazz⁠" Tregillgas

Duh? But they want/wanted a full 5 man roster from Australia/NZ.

apparently they didn't in the end..

Well where does it state "JKAEM IS HERE TO STAY"? It doesnt, so they might as well keep him for now. I think Renegades might sign malta from Grayhounds, imo he is really good in the lurk role. I mean it states that Jkaem still is a standin: i.gyazo.com/11d879b488f17cd9674a8ecc1a64..

yeah maybe you're right, but jkaem is probably better than most AU players outside renegades rn. He is stable and can speak good english and everything. Would be nice seeing more AU players in the top teams though.

2018-10-01 14:56

Jkaem is signed to them I believe, plus why would they keep him and kick ustilo?

2018-10-02 16:19

No he isnt: i.gyazo.com/414b831758914726576d5b82ac56.. Because USTILO have been trash for a long time, JKAEM actually can play the game & does it good, but thats what i saw yesterday, that they wanted a full AU/NZ lineup.

2018-10-02 16:21

They will add DickStacy np

2018-10-01 07:13

No way

jkaem May be better than ustilo but there are still better options

Sad but true *queue Metallica music*

Haha nice one

2018-10-01 08:24

Metallica is as revelant as Renegades, good choice.

2018-10-02 04:13

now tier 1*

Tier 10 is acceptable

Nifty> grat but liazz >>>USTILO, grat >>ustilo and nifty=liazz.. No sence? Maybe, but rng is better now! Lol

2018-10-01 06:48

Nifty was the STAR why did they kick him? Happy of ustilo even tho he was nice guy but let the team down a lot

2018-10-01 08:30

Nifty was not a star, he was inconsistent and they won’t miss anything by kicking him. This is just from a fragging point of view, he might have been a good igl.

2018-10-01 10:00

2018-10-01 11:53

wayyy to inconsistent for an awper honestly.

2018-10-01 16:08

Do you even watch any au matches? lmao. At peak level, yes nifty>grat but not in any other level And nifty=liazz? NIGGA WAT LOL

2018-10-01 13:49

no, but whatever.. i watch grayhound and know grat is very good! and rating of liazz is amazing.. now i want see this player in renegades

2018-10-02 02:54

They actually upgraded, From tier 2 to tier 1!

2018-10-01 08:13

We will see. They already were t1 on their way to t2. I doubt their trajectory changes too much. But getting a full Aussie line up into NA is good for the scene

2018-10-01 12:55

-1

2018-10-01 10:34

Yeah the boys

Swag

Where? I don't see him

2018-10-01 08:10

One is not like the others

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

this is a roster to be excited about

nice name are there any french jb/ttt servers where i can piss off underage kids?

2018-10-01 10:26

NAIS

jkaem looking kinda odd there lol

2018-10-01 05:42

2018-10-01 05:45

No nifty no win

2018-10-01 05:47

No Nifty no win. Instead of Gratisfaction they should have sign aliStair, whos having quiet some issues in Order but is a rising star from down under.

2018-10-01 05:53

Whilst nifty did have amazing performances, he was inconsistent. The core trio of renegades needed to change in one way or another and this seems like a good move for everyone

2018-10-01 06:40

I think nifty was just hampered down by the igl role, maybe if they had a dedicated igl nifty would be more consistent and be able to have more impact.

2018-10-01 08:19

If they really wanted to sign a fucking bot then they would have signed me.

2018-10-01 06:44

Nifty was WAY too inconsistent, aliStair has been struggling and isn't close to Gratisfaction's level

2018-10-01 08:14

2018-10-01 05:54

Should have signed Alistar and be the first pro team to have a female player

2018-10-01 05:55

i don't get it ?

2018-10-01 05:59

I think it's cuz of this pic

2018-10-01 06:49

Alistar is gay

2018-10-01 06:50

ur gay

2018-10-01 06:57

He's not good enough

2018-10-01 08:15

EZ STICKERS FOR THEM

Gratisfaction is better than Nifty

I think so too, Time will tell

Probably

2018-10-01 10:01

I will miss the Hatz Liazz bromance, but I know these two will run riot. Good luck gents.

2018-10-01 07:03

Maybe fucking English?

Chinese

2018-10-01 07:38

Russian obviously

2018-10-01 09:31

Renegades is like FaZe of AU cs. They just buy out talents from new upcoming promising teams from AU. Thats why only Renegades are relevant in pro scene from AU.

2018-10-01 06:32

Bro it has literally been like 2 years since they got anyone from OCE. They have been getting international players

2018-10-01 06:37

+1 LOL

lol

2018-10-01 06:35

Niiiiice! Grat and liaz is so good!

So is jkaem igl

2018-10-01 06:58

AZR probably

2018-10-01 08:16

2018-10-01 09:45

0/8 rip grayhound

2018-10-01 07:00

better keep the aussie spirit alive no matter how bad they are

2018-10-01 07:16

they good tho 0/8

2018-10-01 07:20

im not baiting i meant better local players than americans/europeans no matter how good or bad they are

2018-10-01 07:51

Ah ok

2018-10-01 08:40

2018-10-01 07:18

I feel like this is the 5th news about this damn lineup change. ffs

2018-10-01 07:24

Renegades to drop below top 100

2018-10-01 07:39

They upgraded a lot, How can't you see???

2018-10-01 08:17

we'll see, right?

his nose blocks his vision

2018-10-01 09:10

lmao lul

2018-10-01 10:39

Thank god jkaem remains

2018-10-01 07:55

Yeah, They nearly made a mistake replacing him and keeping Ustilo

almost the perfect roster move for these guys, personally sico is a more proven international player than grat and a better rifler but keen as a bean to see these guys play in Kiev

2018-10-01 08:21

??? Sico has never done anything internationally, grat has

2018-10-01 11:05

lel yes mr spain im sure you have followed them so closely

2018-10-01 12:56

I checked his stats, grat has better showings at international lans

2018-10-01 13:03

2018-10-01 14:37

lul

2018-10-01 08:32

RIP RNG :(

2018-10-01 09:20

What do you mean??? They will be better now

2018-10-01 19:43

Who will IGL?

2018-10-01 10:46

should be AZR i guess as he has done it before

2018-10-01 11:00

itll be azr and gratis helping with it as well

2018-10-01 11:40

Finally they should have added Sico aswell btw

2018-10-01 10:50

He is AWPer just like grat

A double awp setup can be pretty effective, and i'm sure he adds more value to the team than jkaem

2018-10-01 11:09

Jks is a decent secondary awper. not amazing but does the job

2018-10-01 14:00

No??? Before they made changes Jkaem was the 2nd best player on Renegades, He brings a lot of firepower, Jks is also a good secondary AWP

2018-10-01 19:42

They will have to switch from English to Australian, jkaem will probably struggle in the beggining,

2018-10-01 11:29

+1 Jkaem : where tf is diggity Jks : behind you AZR : in front of you liazz : to your left grat : to your right Jkaem : ...wtf If ya don't know a callout just say diggity to pretend like you're helping.

2018-10-01 12:04

-jkaem +BigDickStacy

2018-10-01 11:32

This line up looks promising :)

2018-10-01 11:37

Kaiwai lol

kawai princesu

2018-10-01 12:14

This team will be 100% better than old team

2018-10-01 11:57

I are agree with Mr Poland.

2018-10-01 15:34

new era au

2018-10-01 12:31

make aussie cs great again :)

2018-10-01 12:48

No DickStacy no party

2018-10-01 12:50

+1 if you’re glad Jkaem stayed.

2018-10-01 14:24

+1 for jkaem but -1 for you being a +1 whore

2018-10-01 15:20

Called me out.

2018-10-04 08:12

Why not Dexter wtf.

2018-10-01 14:27

Liaz>dex

2018-10-01 14:44

dex has igl experience though, and they need that more. Liazz isnt much better skill wise than dexter either.

2018-10-01 16:11

Are you kidding??? Just look at Liazz's stats before saying something like that

2018-10-01 19:41

I really cant take stats that are basically just oce and asia that seriously and one showing at iem sydney isnt enough to convince me otherwise. End of the day GH which Dexter is igl of did better for a longer period than kings/ order did even with the stacked lineup Liazz had behind him. Don't get me wrong Liazz is one if not the best player in the AUS scene - RNG players, RNG had enough raw skill as is.

2018-10-03 10:58

Liazz did not have a ''stacked lineup'' behind him, Emag igl for the first time, aliStair rifling instead of AWP, Hatz entrying, Liazz and Sico were the main 2 ... For sure wasn't stacked, Not much Liazz can do when he has a 1.21 KD and his team still loses to grayhound

2018-10-03 13:00

good players nice renegades

2018-10-01 21:40

Grayhound signed Sterling in Grat's absence, and I think its a great sign. Probably got him hella cheap from Legacy, and hes already shown to be a great player, even when playing part-time. Who knows what ha can do while playing full time?! So I wonder, does anyone know how much renegades had to pay for Grat? Because Sterling might make up for it in some months, might even be positive for grayhound
