FURIA say goodbye to drop, saffee

29-6-2023 12:01

The departing duo have been linked to MIBR.

saffee and drop at the IEM Rio Major in 2022

FURIA has announced the parting of ways with AWPer Rafael "⁠saffee⁠" Costa and youngster André "⁠drop⁠" Abreu amid ongoing conversations to sign Gabriel "⁠FalleN⁠" Toledo.

Media: FalleN chooses FURIA as negotiations begin

The outgoing duo are set to for a transfer to MIBR, where they will fill the spots left open by Matheus "⁠Tuurtle⁠" Anhaia and Henrique "⁠HEN1⁠" Teles in the Brazilian side's starting five.

FURIA, meanwhile, continue to work in order to get the FalleN negotiations across the line as they also scour the market for a rifler to fill drop's shoes ahead of the fall season, which begins for the Brazilians on July 25 at the IEM Cologne Play-In.

Media: MIBR in negotiations with FURIA over drop and saffee

drop and saffee had been in FURIA since mid 2021 and early 2022, respectively, and peaked in fifth place on the world ranking during their time in Brazil's top side.

The duo never lifted silverware, but had a mix of memorable moments — such as the semi-final finish in 2022 at their home Major, IEM Rio — alongside several disappointing group stage exits, including the recent BLAST.tv Paris Major and the final event of the 2023 spring season, IEM Dallas.

FURIA is now down to:

Kaike "⁠KSCERATO⁠" Cerato
Yuri "⁠yuurih⁠" Santos
Andrei "⁠arT⁠" Piovezan

Nicholas "⁠guerri⁠" Nogueira (coach)

Skullz would be the best choice

insani>skullz

2023-06-29 14:10

Nah skullz and zevy better

2023-06-29 14:17

They dont need another star player, they need a proper IGL(fallen) and the best support available (Vini)

2023-06-29 14:23

art will still be the igl, trust me

2023-06-29 17:26

Chelo is trash player

2023-06-29 14:24

+1 Chelo overrated

2023-06-29 17:08

2023-06-29 15:35

who

2023-06-30 14:16

+coldzera +FalleN

That would be great, tho, but Coldzera want to be in charge of his team.

2023-06-29 12:05

Nah cold are too washed

2023-06-29 13:29

FalleN can make Coldzera peak.

2023-06-29 23:17

About time. Now lets bring over Fallen + Fer/Chelo. About time Furia have a team that can fight for top 5 easily. Saffee would do well also out Furia, now Drop I am not sure.

No team with Fallen will fight for top 5. If Furia wants to be a stable top 5 team /titlecontender they will get rid of everyone except Yuurih and kscerato and rebuild with young new talent.

2023-06-29 13:26

That move should've happened some years ago, but finally. FalleN can bring a different mindset and a lot of experience to Furia and with Fer/Chelo they'll have more firepower. Hell, even VINI could be a great option

2023-06-29 14:36

FalleN must go to coach role

2023-06-29 15:04

2023-06-29 12:09

Furia drop drop. Dust2us still GOAT

Exciting

Shame about saffee. Really wanted things to work out, but he just never seemed comfortable. Maybe can do better on MIBR.

2023-06-29 12:10

probably +fallen and +kauez

2023-06-29 12:24

Since Liquid went international they should get drop and rain. With rainwaker already on the team article title potential is limitless.

My brain is overheating

2023-06-29 22:01

Some cold liquid could saffee you.

2023-06-29 22:02

Yeah, might need to drop it like rain, just to be saffee

2023-06-29 22:13

It's s1mple you GeT it RiGhT

2023-06-29 22:23

+ FalleN + Chelo -25 HLTV spots

2023-06-29 12:27

Please sign fer, he is free agent and would be insane with other rifers! No, he didnt retire officially. Some Brazilians claim that he would play if team was good and stable. Said this on stream

what you mean?

2023-06-29 15:12

idk exactly, he only said its personal

2023-06-29 15:21

fer is done

He still pop heads against t1 he only needs motivation

2023-06-29 15:37

Furia drop drop and safely remove saffee

2023-06-29 12:39

lol

2023-06-29 12:45

i honestly dont like the idea of furia signing fallen. i feel like id rather have art go back to awping.

2023-06-29 12:43

why not

2023-06-30 14:23

deserved

2023-06-29 12:44

FalleN will destroy FURIA , with all the respect I have for him and what he's done in the past ... he would fit better as a coach.

2023-06-29 12:52

Nah man, look what he did with imperial They surely gonna improve with the knowledge of fallen

2023-06-29 13:08

kinda unmatch when we talk about game style, fallen is a passive gamestyle also passive awper. Art is complete opposite, agressive playstyle and execs with no pace

2023-06-29 17:19

If anything he'll make them a top contender. Look what he did with considerably less firepower in Imperial. FURIA will have crazy firepower depending on the last player. arT is very good entry ( when he is not overextending ) and a great 2d AWPer. KSCERATO and yuriiiih are, on form, top 15 caliber players.

2023-06-29 13:24

two faced toledo is like wine

2023-06-29 13:45

Impossible to destroy something that never worked at first place FURIA NEVER won anything relevant outside of NA

You dont NEED to win trophies to be relevant, they are top12 on the world mate, you should be proud of it that they are trying to evolve and improve in order to finally win some big events

2023-06-29 15:56

Thanks for nothing xD

2023-06-29 12:53

+FALLEN +VINI PLS

FURIA drop saffee

2023-06-29 13:23

i would love to +vini, he is on top performace right now...but probally +fallen +kauez which gives me lazy to think that we have to give time to kauez when fallen is on he is final moments

2023-06-29 13:30

relax it won't be kauez, i can guarantee you that

2023-06-29 13:42

Source?

2023-06-29 15:38

no just observing everything that has been happening in transfer movements

2023-06-29 15:52

but I could be wrong, let's see

2023-06-29 15:50

There is 0% chance of Fallen joining Furia to play with academy players. He is moving to FURIA to build a superteam and win trophies

2023-06-29 15:48

Good for Furia

2023-06-29 13:31

finally

2023-06-29 13:33

Expected, but -saffee isnt the solution for them

2023-06-29 13:37

coldzera + fallen

2023-06-29 13:49

Cold is washed af

2023-06-29 14:33

Botzera already ruined lato and dumau's careers, keep him far away from Furia please

2023-06-29 18:33

i think he can do good things in his former role in a good team

2023-06-30 16:18

Furia took so long to do this, they should have taken at least 1 year off

2023-06-29 13:52

+Fallen +HEN1 3 awpers lets go

2023-06-29 14:07

about time

2023-06-29 14:11

is it safe to drop drop?

Is the rumor still fer going to furia?

by all indications, it is between fer and Chelo, but the most current rumors indicate Chelo as most likely but still have some chance of fer (I think)

2023-06-29 14:35

Chelo is all baleado all the time skipping events

2023-06-29 15:11

I prefer fer than Chelo on Furia... but if you look the last rumors, Imperial is interested in Hen1 and felps, it indicates it's not just Fallen is leaving... and this other one who is leaving is probably Chelo

2023-06-29 15:16

Thank you

2023-06-29 18:24

saffee safely on the bench

2023-06-29 14:51

big brain Furia keep arT Omegalul

2023-06-29 14:56

Why do you think Kscerato, yuurih, fallen accept play with him? Because he is a great and versatile player that can play any role and with all guns, even kscerato said on an interview

2023-06-29 15:03

I know that he's versatile, but he still throw lots of games just rushing and dying, if he changes that style a little, and this is a big if, it might work, I just would go for a safer option in order to make a "super team"

good, 2 bots

Saffee good playey, sad

2023-06-29 15:42

Fallen or Hen1 100%

2023-06-29 16:17

FalleN ofc

2023-06-29 16:41

kscerato masterclass being cooked

2023-06-29 16:49

goodbye bots

2023-06-29 17:18

WELCOME FALLEN

2023-06-29 17:34

Here's the list of possibilities: Fallen + Hen1 = LOL WTF BBQ Fallen + Chelo = yeeahhhhh, boiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. Fallen + Fer = "Family". Fallen + Vini = Fair enough. Fallen + kauexz = Feels Bad Man..,

2023-06-29 18:03

if they cared about winning, zevy + chelo

2023-06-29 18:15

That's the dillema about the BR scene rn. You might give the "young" ones a shot like they did with Junior, Honda, Saffee and Drop and but they ain't producing good results like Fallen recently did. Maybe, just maybe, they don't make them like they used to...

2023-06-29 18:22

zevy is inconsistent and misses too many shots.

Lmao, if they care a out winning they only have 3option as awper hen1, try and falleN. The best would be pick up a 5th that already has a sinergy with the new awp

2023-06-29 21:48

+hen1 +who? Fallen might work as well, but then they need (super)star rifler.

2023-06-29 19:04

Welcome fallen and chelo

2023-06-29 19:12

my opinion: drop should benefit from going to a t2 team. perhaps he can return stronger to t1 in the future saffee on the other hand should now retire and become a coach or analyst or something. good luck

2023-06-29 19:25

Have they still not locked fallen into a deal yet?

2023-06-29 19:26

I'm pretty sure they've already closed the deal with FalleN... I believe they are still closing negotiations with the drop replacement and will wait to announce both at once

2023-06-29 19:36
