zewsy and ofnu officially part of Chiefs

Ryan "⁠zewsy⁠" Palmer and Chris "⁠ofnu⁠" Hanley, who were on loan from ICON, have now officially signed with Chiefs.

Chiefs officially became more Kiwi as ofnu and zewsy were signed onto the roster after a three month period on loan from ICON, the organization formerly known as Tainted Minds. The duo, who were founding members of Chiefs when the organization entered the CS:GO ecosystem in 2015, were brought back on in March to replace Jesse "⁠InfrequeNt⁠" Barker and Mohammed "⁠MoeycQ⁠" Tizani.

During these three months, ofnu and zewsy helped Chiefs win the IEM Sydney Derby 2019, which qualified the team to the biggest event in Oceania, where they went out in 9-12th place with a victory over ViCi and losses to FaZe and fnatic.

Losses to Grayhound put a damper on their ESL Pro League Season 9 Asia run, going out in 5-6th place, but domestically Chiefs are in this season's ESEA MDL semi-finals, and will play the ESL Australia & NZ Championship Season 8 Finals taking place this weekend in Sydney.

"In our eyes, zewsy and ofnu were always a part of the team, we were just waiting on both ICON and Chiefs to get the deal done. We haven't had the most successful run results-wise so far, but we're extremely confident we have the players to achieve our goals domestically and internationally."
