MAJ3R departs ex-Space Soldiers

23-3-2019 12:50

The 28-year-old in-game leader has parted ways with ex-Space Soldiers, the Turkish player has announced on Twitter.

The gradual dissolution of ex-Space Soldiers continued on Saturday, when the team's in-game leader Engin "⁠MAJ3R⁠" Küpeli announced his decision to leave the squad after spending more than two years with the side.

ex-Space Soldiers had lost their most impactful player Ismailcan "⁠XANTARES⁠" Dörtkardeş at the end of 2018 as the rifler decided to continue his career in Germany, with BIG. The Turks attended the Europe Minor with Yaman "⁠yam⁠" Ergenekon in their lineup, in January, but went out in last place.

MAJ3R's stint in Turkey is over

Following the Minor, yam remained in the roster and Ömer "⁠imoRR⁠" Karataş replaced Engin "⁠ngiN⁠" Kor in the active lineup. Despite these changes and the starting date of EPL Season 9 drawing near, in which the Turks will compete, they have yet to sign with a new organization.

During his tenure with the side, MAJ3R has won DreamHack Open Austin, finished in second place at the WESG 2017 World Finals, and qualified for the ELEAGUE and FACEIT Majors in 2018.

ex-Space Soldiers now have the following lineup:

Ahmet "⁠paz⁠" Karahoca
Buğra "⁠Calyx⁠" Arkın
Yaman "⁠yam⁠" Ergenekon
Ömer "⁠imoRR⁠" Karataş

Canpolat "⁠hardstyle⁠" Yıldıran (Coach)

a part of* It seems like he have a bunch of steel supporters anyway, kinda curious about who they are

2019-03-23 13:39

If these kinda people have an opportunity they will leave turkey aswell probably

2019-03-23 14:16

we dunno anyway. they show support cuz they can benefit from some of Erd's claims, which is undoubted tho

2019-03-23 15:11

ldlc or g2

He could make G2 a great team. But that won't happen I'm afraid.

2019-03-23 13:42

That's why he will never win anything meaninful

2019-03-23 14:05

it's the problem of a lot of star players. but it's sad to see a guy with this skill trying to do something he can't.

He jsut trying to jump over his head, tbh, nothing special considering his age.

2019-03-23 14:08

yeah i guess, but they don't have a real manager or coach for say " stop this shit now we need a real IGL and niko stop to be a fucking princess and to yoru job, drop 30 bombs every map )

2019-03-23 14:09

Well, i am sure robban was doing exactly same job he was doing in SK, when it was f0rest/gtr/face/allen(later delpan) lineup around him, he never was an outstanding igl, just a guy with lots of talents around him and ability to help em do their job well. It doesnt work in faze.

2019-03-23 14:13

yeah maybe i don't really know why they don't try like with karrigan. it was betters results in this period

2019-03-23 14:22

They jsut need to find good coach (ave left north afaik) =]

2019-03-23 14:24

stay tuned !!! but i think after the berlin major if it's don't work they gonna change the line up

2019-03-23 14:36

You should use your brain before you write in english

2019-03-23 13:13

You need to use your brain before be a fan of happy !! And what you just this argument for reply ? Nothing about the feed of conversation ? Raymond

2019-03-23 13:28

where are your arguments ? how do you know niko wont listen to him ? to you know niko personaly ? or you're just assuming how ppl are base on what you see on twitter and hltv ? cuz idk why he wouldnt listen to maj3r. suis tes cours d'anglais c'est important frr jsuis nul aussi mais toi c chaud

2019-03-23 13:37

it's simple logic!! something you maybe forgot it's they kicked karrigan from igl, it's not for take a guy with half of this XP playing and struggling on tier2/3 ( or even tier 23455 ) events !!! if the guy toke the leadership in the game and don't let another one remplace him ..... it's for one reason. he think is good at this role and better than others. they have the chance to remplace karrigan by another IGL and what they do ? Adren ....... so we can clearly see the problem is NIKO ego . donc avant de t'inquiéter de mon anglais et jouer au chevalier blanc de HLTV, pense a avoir un esprit plus logique et utilise la deduction pour faire marcher ta tete. FRERE raymond l'africain

2019-03-23 13:52

no mate, he will join Astralis probably

2019-03-23 14:11

rip major

were sinking, captain

I am pretty sure ex-SS is already basically at the bottom. Kinda sad to see

thanks to mr.xantares

2019-03-24 02:40

he is feeling thank you

2019-03-24 17:14

Calyx & paz are decent players tbh

whoooops just slipping into the french scene gl majer

What about their EPL spot?

they lost epl spot. only paz&calyx left.

So, there's free one. ESL should give this one to ENCE or Vitality (cuz both top 10)

2019-03-23 13:03

I don't believe that's how EPL spots work, mouz is still in league despite switching 3 players also.

True

2019-03-23 23:16

Lucky guy yam, moves to europe and instantly this happens and he gets to play a season of pro league :D

2019-03-24 13:26

RIP Turkish cs

youtube.com/watch?v=jQOZZOEery8 its for Space Soldiers Thanks for everything majer

+1 :')

This song is about friends guys.... Making me cry like little girl everytime

2019-03-23 23:26

Team pretty dead at this point. Rip.

Disband already

LDLC is waiting u EDIT: ty XANTARES, you destroyed a team and your own career

Ss was already trash before xantares left

Man before he left they were better than Big

Maybe. But it is hard to play without salary.

2019-03-23 13:17

split isn't a good way to resolve problems in a team they just had to work more and better

It was hard to play without org. If I were him i would do the same

If you lose your smartphone you are look for another one If you lose your org you are looking for another one Leave the org was the worst idea you can decide. The reason why XANTARES is very bad is his IQ, he is a huge monster in term of aim / reactivity but he is sooooo dumb. Vitality's leader explained that he is very easy to anti-strat, he said "he played like in FPL, we just had to put ZywOo on him and he is useless"

2019-03-23 13:16

They looked for it already. But when you have players like ngin, no org will take you out from pit.

No everyone knew they had shit contracts and salaries and had to get rid of their org

2019-03-23 13:29

French shuffle!!

GO TO FRANCE AND MAKE YHEM GREAT AGAIN

Frenchies will love him now :>

2019-03-23 13:08

2019-03-23 13:10

SIXER MAJER OR -botb + majer

2019-03-23 13:14

G2 just signed Amanek couple weeks ago and now Maj3r left ex-SS. U would have done that before g2 signing Amanek mister Maj3r..

he is making a team with scream and kio

Fair enough

kio? isnt he in cloud9?

2019-03-23 14:10

Some sources saying hes leaving c9

2019-03-23 15:51

Ok. Now -Lucky +MAJ3R and we are good to go.

So sad :((((

FaZe MAJ3R

Oh wow do they still exist, totally forgot about them.

Goodbye my lover, goodbye my friend.

Disband ?

Kebab Dispand

2019-03-23 13:46

never

2019-03-23 13:49

2019-03-23 14:12

2019-03-23 14:02

Disband is close

Options: Faze - Beat option, And miracle move. Very underrated as an IGL I think. TSM- I don’t want this move, overrated team without Scream lul Vitality- if they get rid of Alex or RPK maybe... Alex isn’t living up to expectations.. G2- not gonna happen, just signed Amaenek LDLC- should disband, useless tier 5 team

do you really think Faze would want a player like MAJ3R in the team ?

2019-03-23 14:29

You never know, Mousesports toke Ropz from out of nowhere and look where he is. Could be the same thing here with Maj3r; he’s experienced also.

2019-03-23 14:56

but mouz usually sign promising players like ropz, frozen, woxic etc. majer is old and not at top level of csgo

2019-03-23 16:00

thank god, maj3r was incompetent at calling. Don't put him within 20 ft of a t1 team

2019-03-23 14:19

Disband? :(

2019-03-23 14:23

they were amazing, but then xantares and now this guy shat the dick. r.i.p turk cs.

2019-03-23 14:25

I hope that one day I will see maj3r with woxic, calyx, xantares, imorr

Maybe in your dreams.. maybe.....

2019-03-23 21:02

goodbye to the only hope of turkish scene, space soldiers

2019-03-23 14:39

2019-03-23 14:55

finally , SS can rise again but sadly they lost Xantagod

2019-03-23 15:00

Credit to him for sticking it out for so long, this was well overdue though... Hopefully he gets picked up soon.

2019-03-23 15:01

He was bad igl anyway. Yam would be better.

sry,but i dont agree with you

2019-03-23 15:39

majer was great igl, i hope paz will be igl in ex-ss

2019-03-24 12:24

They are making it so dramatic, but there is no need. Maj3r was shitty player, and not bad igl. Probably, new organization of exSS doesnt want this guy.
