Cloud9 to transfer current roster and undergo complete rebuild

The organization is committed to finding Johnny "⁠JT⁠" Theodosiou and company a new home as it's about to restructure the entire CS:GO division.

The South African-American composition will continue to represent Cloud9 in ESL Pro League Season 12 while the Los Angeles-based company searches for a new organization for the entire current lineup and begins the restructuring process.

The move will see C9 overhaul the CS:GO division for the fourth time in two and a half difficult years. While the ELEAGUE Major-winning lineup disintegrated one by one in 2018, the organization struggled to keep a stable five and its team became mostly European following countless changes during the rest of the year and the first half of 2019.

When that direction failed, Cloud9 placed their trust in Damian "⁠daps⁠" Steele and his brand new lineup for the latter half of 2019, but the majority of that unit ended up being acquired by Gen.G after just five months, leaving the organization without a roster.

T.c's team's time at Cloud9 is coming to an end

Cloud9 has boasted the squad around Tiaan "⁠T.c⁠" Coertzen since the start of 2020, having acquired them from ATK following their impressive campaign at ESL Pro League Season 10 Finals, where the team beat North and G2 on the way to a seventh-eighth placing while only losing to the tournament's eventual champions, MOUZ.

Best CSGO betting sites on offer can be found here.

The JT-led side have been unable to replicate that success under the new banner, however. They kicked off 2020 by qualifying for DreamHack Open Leipzig and IEM Katowice only to get eliminated in the group stage at both tournaments, before finishing fourth in the first season of Flashpoint as the scene transitioned online.

Since then, Cloud9 have enjoyed a few highlight moments such as third place at ESL One: Road to Rio, above both Evil Geniuses and Liquid, but otherwise stagnated as they struggled to take their game to the next level and begin contending for regional titles.

Cloud9 are looking to transfer the following lineup:

South Africa Johnny "⁠JT⁠" Theodosiou
South Africa Aran "⁠Sonic⁠" Groesbeek
United States Ricky "⁠floppy⁠" Kemery
United States Josh "⁠oSee⁠" Ohm
United States Ian "⁠motm⁠" Hardy

South Africa Tiaan "⁠T.c⁠" Coertzen (coach)

Look at FaZe when they kicked the IGL (Karrigan) and got someone else to do it. Only good individual performance for a long period of time was Niko everyone else was poor. Guardians career died, Olof soon left again and Rain hasnt been in great form either. Another example is the old Gambit squad when Zeus left. The moment Zeus left the team they crashed

you cant build a team from these 2 teams that will be better than the current one. current one is not even that bad, they are praccing well, playing okay but as you said, its their max. But C9 obv want to compete at highest level, but they cant create a team for it with the current NA players that are not in Liquid or EG

moved to valorant doesn't mean they actually got a team with a salary that they can play for, a lot of them are still free agents and would shamelessly come back to CS if they'd get any offers or a lack thereof, just like Zellsis or Cooper did after being 'done with CS for good'. Riot hosts their own tournaments, CS has plenty for every tier.

You can see how young players perform in Olof's roles which he had in FaZe. Change his position to a star rifler and you'll get much better results from him. GuardiaN is looking crisp in FPL but I have to agree with oskar, he looked mediocre in Sprout. Also they bring a lot of experience and the duo Olof and Guardian played together before so they would be more familiar with each other's play styles.

Floppy was good, I feel like they should keep him tbh. Too bad that Nitr0 switched to valorant, they could really use him too. I hope some players from Swole Patrol will get a chance but I don't think they are good enough on their own to become one of the top teams in NA either.

Hard not to wonder how well these guys could do with a stricter IGL and coach. Guys who will drill some discipline into them and get them over that hump of playing every match like it's FFA. There's still plenty of potential in there. Gen.G is a South Korean org with a team playing NA that is comprised of daps plus four Asians. They aren't dropping someone for floppy. oSee might be Asian enough to replace daps though. BnTeT can IGL again and Auti can go back to rifling. Meanwhile in whatever new org Sonic can go back to AWPing where he belongs, they can bring in a promising FPL/MDL rifler and the sign daps to IGL (for that discipline) and tryout JT as coach. Everyone's a winner.

What this means is that a) They are not satisfied at the results but they cannot fire them because of contract, which we do not know details of. There could be a clause that prevents them from doing this. Players are definitely under NDA, meaning they cannot discuss about the details of the matter. b) They want to milk the last pennies out of this lineup, meaning that they want to sell them off before their contracts expire.

Looking at the actual hltv top 30, the only team behind cloud9 that's not better is Team One (And yet they lost 3 times in a row last month). Even K23 would be pretty equal. Teams better than Cloud 9 outside top 30? x6tence Nemiga Havu Ago Avez Espada I'll even put teams like Heretics, Dignitas or sAw that aren't in the best shape right now. If HLTV were fair with the weight given to current NA tournaments, most of the region would be under Renegades in #45 (Who actually deserves to be top 30). Even Boom is likely better than Cloud9...

I think c9 is trying to set the brand as a big international powerhouse. Untill now they've had clowny NA rosters in different esports (dota, csgo etc...) but they slowly started kicking everyone. I asume they'll try to sign international rosters with tier 1 potential.

It seems good to me that C9 gives opportunities to new people. They gave to ATK a good chance, maybe they are not making much, but personally it's good to see this Org give other people a chance

I know that C9 want to build an international team like Col but surely they'll keep floppy?

Here should be the roster Floppy Cooper Moose Xeppaa Leaf I feel like this could potentially be a really good roster if they keep on working at it. It could be the NA version of OG.

Aside of c9 rebuilding since It seem they didn't keep any of the players. Does It mean there's other Org who bought that roster? FunPlus Phoenix maybe.

So if the players get a new org they retain their RMR points, considering they were doing okay i don't think they will struggle to find another org

Wouldn't be surprised if they try to pick up the Heroic lineup since Heroic have already to sell their roster before.
