hades replaces anarkez in Finest

29-8-2022 16:48

The Polish AWPer will ply his trade for Finest on a loan deal from ENCE.

Finest have secured the services ENCE AWPer Olek "⁠hades⁠" Miskiewicz on loan from the Finnish organization. The Pole is replacing Guy "⁠anarkez⁠" Trachtman on the roster after the organization and player parted ways earlier on Monday after a 13-month partnership.

The changes come shortly after Finest's failure to qualify for IEM Road to Rio 2022 Europe as they finished outside of the top eight in all four open qualifiers for the RMR event with losses to the likes of flowstate and Forward.

hades will take over AWPing duties in Finest from anarkez

anarkez was the longest-standing member of Finest, having joined in July 2021 during a period of instability for the squad. The 22-year-old averaged a 1.13 rating during his time with the organization, powering them to victories at Pinnacle Cup IV, ESEA Advanced Season 38 Europe, and various online cash cups.

A fourth-place finish at Pinnacle Cup Championship 2022 resulted in Finest's all-time peak as the squad claimed the No.19 spot in the rankings. The team has since plateaued and currently sits on the No. 22 mark.

ENCE announce hades benching

hades joins Finest after a fruitful period as a member of ENCE during their victories at LOOT.BET Season 9 and Funspark ULTI 2021 Europe Playoffs 1, as well as the team's incredible run of form in early 2022, when they reached the finals of ESL Pro League Season 15 and IEM Dallas.

The AWPer's performances slowed down significantly after April, and ENCE made the decision to replace the Pole with Álvaro "⁠SunPayus⁠" García following the Spaniard's impressive stint with Movistar Riders.

hades and coach Jędrzej "⁠Bogdan⁠" Rokita were both part of AVEZ in early 2020, but the AWPer remained on the inactive roster throughout the skipper's tenure in the squad.

Finest is now:

Simon "⁠twist⁠" Eliasson
Niclas "⁠PlesseN⁠" Plessen
Rasmus "⁠kreaz⁠" Johansson
Kristjan "⁠shokz⁠" Jakobson
Olek "⁠hades⁠" Miskiewicz

Jędrzej "⁠Bogdan⁠" Rokita (coach)

Last big LAN Finest went to they did really well against good tier teams, I wouldn't under-estimate them, they're actually a solid team.

2022-08-30 15:49

why???

Because he is better than anarkez

2022-08-29 21:00

Is he tho?

2022-08-29 21:18

certainly not

Anarkez to JIEJIEHAO INTERNATIONAL PLS

-Dav +Anarkez and they are serious contenders to play the major

2022-08-29 16:51

+1 actually will probably happen

They can't change roster right now, can they?

2022-08-30 02:24

top 20 team shit? don't think so

2022-08-29 16:54

top 20? more like top 35

even if so, that's still tier 2 so I don't understand how this team is shit

2022-08-29 16:55

+1 finest is really good for t2

2022-08-29 17:06

They were strugglin vs friberg and maikelele in rmr qualifier lol and win it only on ot. kreaz good team xddd

#120

2022-08-29 18:30

they didn't qualify to RMR, so..

2022-08-29 17:11

Astralis barely did, movistar riders didn't, so that proves nothing tbh, it's easy to lose against mix when you play BO1 on mirage or any map pretty much

Yeah, but i mean that he will not compete in major this time, but was playing at tier-1 level for over 1 year with ENCE. And ENCE was like top-5 team in the world for half a year. So Finest is really strong downgrade. But i hope that they will achieve something now

2022-08-29 19:14

Obviously it's a downgrade, but I wouldn't call Finest shit anyways, just as I said, tier 2 ;D, hopefully he is gonna do good there yes

2022-08-29 19:57

It's very common occurrence - look at Lucky, Smooya, Shox - straight from T1 to T5. Jackz is lucky somewhat for now T2/3.

2022-08-30 06:26

That's true, but i guess that hades is more perspective than Lucky, smooya and shox (for example)

2022-08-30 12:39

ooh nice adition

is twist a sniper?

No igl

No, just playing poorly :P It is good to see him again with his deep voice, but honestly, he felt so much like denis

2022-08-29 16:52

Not anymore

Nice

Reasonable

Wtf anarkez is goated

he wanted to left to ): unlucky

t2 team, perfect for hades twist is horrible, this team will forever be in t2 with him.

t3 at max

hades > anarkez good move

ye he is coming to farm the t2

good for hades!

regress for hades :/ but anarkez was good too

I know, like wtf ??? anarkez was consistent and was actually better than most of his team

2022-08-29 17:36

surely he got an offer from other team or He disappointed to the team performance. Hope Finest&anarkeZ 's good luck

2022-08-29 17:47

completely agree

2022-08-30 03:42

What a joke, he should have waited for more offers instead of jumping the gun

we're after a summer shuffle, it's good that he found a team in the top 20

2022-08-29 17:15

he is on loan, still has contract in ence, he couldnt get better offer now

He's on loan who cars

2022-08-29 19:44

Tbf Ence was kinda meh with allu, after Hades joined they started to win games.

2022-08-30 07:53

For what kind of offers... He will not get offer from t1 team. That's obvious.

2022-08-30 11:15

Relegation to the finest. No PUN intended. <=)

Who?

XDDDDDDDDD

2022-08-29 16:56

from tier 1 to tier 3 ufff

Fun fact: ENCE had even lower HLTV ranking when hades joined them.

Yeah Ence was kinda meh with Allu and they became instantly ok when Hades was playing as stand in.

2022-08-30 07:54

Anarkez deserve better

finest about to crush any t2 team

ez for finest

anarkez was good wasnt he ?

2022-08-29 16:58

He is good

2022-08-29 16:59

he left bcs they didnt make rmr and lost to DOSIA

hmm...

2022-08-29 17:00

This team still needs some changes, hades is not enough

Bymas 😎😎

Could happen

2022-08-29 17:44

holy shit +1

2022-08-29 17:50

Anarkez deserve a better team

WTF!!!

hmmmm

huge W! Gl mr.hades <3

2022-08-29 17:13

instead of taking his chances while being in his prime, twist decided to play with his friends BENDJI and dumas #1

lol

anarkez does not look like he is 22 at all xD

unexpected but so good for hades and finest, let's go !!!!

2022-08-29 17:18

Gl Hades! Though hope that some higher tier team will pick him up later.

what fuck

2022-08-29 17:21

Anarkez deserves a good team :(. Gl to hades though.

2022-08-29 17:22

GL hades. He is a great clutcher, but like Snappi said his biggest enemy was himself. He is way too harsh to himself and it was one of the reasons why he under-performed in high pressure situations. Hopefully he will be more forgiving in the future.

Decent, gl!

2022-08-29 17:27

Huge downfall for Hades

interesting. anarkez was super good, wonder where he is going now

2022-08-29 17:37

Anarkez is a really good player. While a player like Farlig was playing in Astralis, a player like Anarkez was playing at the finest. anarkez deserves a better team it's really sad

Unexpected, anarkez was doing good in Finest. I wonder if he got an offer from another team or maybe it was his attitude?

2022-08-29 17:45

Hmm, no like. Why no Swede huh?

Rip 22 year old that looks like 50

Rip polish superteam

2022-08-29 17:51

insane upgrade for finest but tbh i think hades couldve gotten into a better team i know he wasnt too reliable in ence but he's still a good player IMO

2022-08-29 17:58

A god

2022-08-29 18:54

2022-08-29 18:20

I LOVE U HADES <3333

2022-08-29 18:25

Anarkez seeing his countrymen represent OG, Vitality, etc while he’s being equally good but is stuck in t2/t3… poor guy

2022-08-29 18:35

2022-08-29 20:33

Hades is a great awper. He just lacks confidence at times. if he can get more confidence he could compete with top dogs

good luck for hades, but losing anarkez who was good enough + losing team chemistry, idk if its worth it

2022-08-29 18:47

Bro that's the hardest downgrade ever

2022-08-29 19:00

Let's go

Could he replace a team playing RMR? Have rosters been locked?

2022-08-29 19:26

Anarkez definitely deserves more, he is a great AWPer. I'd hoped NiP would buy him and PlesseN in order to replace es3tag and Plopski.

Nip will never buy anarkez

2022-08-29 22:29

No need to buy him, he's a free agent. They should definitely sign him, he's a beat of an AWPer and NiP doesn't have one.

2022-08-30 18:53

Good restart. Lets go hades

2022-08-29 19:52

tweet says it's a loan actually

2022-08-29 20:11

2022-08-29 20:32

I hope Anarkez gets a decent team, always saw him as a great player. Maybe one day Israeli super team?

2022-08-29 21:01

anarkez was good but i think hades will not be better

2022-08-29 21:48

2022-08-30 17:08

Finest is tier 2 tho

2022-08-30 20:01

GL hades, I'm surprised Finest benched anarkez, but still, good chance to prove his worth for hades, GL Olek.

2022-08-30 14:19

they said it was a mutual decision, Anarkez probably was dissapointed because of the RMR and the team saw an opportunity in Hades so they both decided to depart.
