Fluxo complete roster overhaul with zevy, PKL, t9rnay additions

9-7-2023 23:01

The team has also confirmed the promotion of former analyst Joaquin "⁠lokomotioN⁠" Abasolo into the head coach position.

Fluxo refill their ranks with two former paiN members and t9rnay

Fluxo has announced the additions of Romeu "⁠zevy⁠" Rocco, Vinicios "⁠PKL⁠" Coelho, and Henrique "⁠t9rnay⁠" Menacho, confirming reports by GameArena and Dust2.br that the organization was targeting the three players to refill their ranks.

The trio takes the place of Allan "⁠history⁠" Lawrenz, João "⁠felps⁠" Vasconcellos, and Adriano "⁠WOOD7⁠" Cerato, who all now reside on Fluxo's bench.

Fluxo bench felps, WOOD7; bid farewell to lux

PKL and zevy arrive on Fluxo from paiN, with the former sitting on the bench since February, and the latter finding himself on the outs from the lineup after the team's trajectory took a downturn from the BLAST.tv Paris Major onward.

Despite his more recent struggles, however, zevy performed well for paiN over the course of his nearly year-long tenure, averaging a 1.14 rating overall and a 1.07 rating on LAN.

That level dipped off in 2023 as he mustered a 1.12 rating overall and a 1.02 rating offline, with the latter number, in particular, being a pain point for the team as they were eliminated early from the IEM Katowice Play-In, ESL Challenger Katowice, and the BLAST.tv Paris Major Challengers Stage.

Fluxo also failed to perform at the Major, faltering in the same stage but with an even worse record, going 0-3 (compared to paiN's 2-3). Both teams decided to make substantial changes to their rosters during the off-season, with Fluxo also swapping out in-game leader WOOD7 for PKL, who returns to action after five months on the sidelines.

The final piece of Fluxo's puzzle is t9rnay, who has been lighting up the board for RED Canids. The 21-year-old has averaged a 1.18 rating for the Brazilian team in 2023 and was a hot commodity during the off-season, being approached by or in discussions with Paquetá, paiN, Fluxo, and a new project headed up by Leonardo "⁠leo_drk⁠" Oliveira.

Lucas "⁠Lucaozy⁠" Neves and Vinicius "⁠vsm⁠" Moreira remain from Fluxo's previous roster to complete the lineup, while their former analyst lokomotioN has been promoted to coach, filling the spot left vacant by Wilton "⁠zews⁠" Prado's departure.

zews departs Fluxo

Fluxo now have:

Vinicius "⁠vsm⁠" Moreira
Lucas "⁠Lucaozy⁠" Neves
Romeu "⁠zevy⁠" Rocco
Vinicios "⁠PKL⁠" Coelho
Henrique "⁠t9rnay⁠" Menacho

Joaquin "⁠lokomotioN⁠" Abasolo (coach)

João "⁠felps⁠" Vasconcellos (benched)
Adriano "⁠WOOD7⁠" Cerato (benched)
Allan "⁠history⁠" Lawrenz (benched)

educate me on how bringing PKL and T9rnay is an improvement over wood7 and felps, if they were to improve they would've brought taco/steel to igl and harzao to support. this just feels like a coin toss.

I agree that Wood is a better IGL than PKL, the problem is that to fly higher, they needed a main awper. T9rney is an insane youngster who has one of the greatest potentials in Brazil, he deserves a chance on a bigger team. They also probably opted for him cuz the other players buyout was already too big.

2023-07-11 00:27

COULD BECOME GOOD WITH -PkL +Biguzera IGLING.................

2023-07-10 00:18

I agree, would be a great top15 team

what good was the 3-0 at RMR when they arrived at the Major? In Rio Major Outsiders were 3-2 at RMR (1 map to be eliminated for SAW, a Portuguese team) and at Major they were champions. Congratulations on the ''3-0 EU RMR'' title

I used Rio Major as an example because Outsiders were champions after being 3-2 in RMR almost being eliminated by SAW, if that was Antwerp, Stockholm, Berlin Major I would mention the same way lol

2023-07-09 23:43

u still lose time trying to nicely explain facts to a biased person xD let it be at least he's cheering for his country bro, which would totalize in max 2 or 3 good players :D

2023-07-10 01:55

Saw was eliminated 2-3 on Antwerp RMR, on Rio they went 0-3, Outsiders went 3-2 on Rio RMR too but they finished with a convincing 2-0 against Falcons while at Antwerp they were less than 1 second away from elimination

Who tf cares about online cups kekw

2023-07-10 10:24

If 9INE didn't care they wouldn't be playing, and if they weren't playing they'd be scratching their balls since they're not invited to t1 events

Poor delusional kid

2023-07-10 01:44

Brazil teams > Sharks > 9INE

2023-07-10 16:45

This lineup looks really promising. I do not know that much about t9rnay, any brazilian fan that can enlighten me if he is a good up and comer or not.

he's been standing out in some events in Brazil for a while, he's young but he deserves this shot

2023-07-09 23:08

Gotcha, hope he will shine in fluxo.

2023-07-09 23:22

good at national level. havent proven outside national leagues

2023-07-09 23:11

best player of the lineup , people don´t know how good he is , but he is inSANE vsm on pair with him only shit part is PKL igling instead of biguzera

2023-07-10 00:20

Imo PKL is very underrated, he is atleast as good as an IGL but obviously not as good as a fragger as biguzera. Biguzera has already admitted that he learned a lot from PKL. Why do so many brazilians tend to underrate pkl? He has led many tier 3 brazilian lineup to tier 2 atleast. Whilst he may not be as godly as biguzera is in terms of fragging while IGLing, he is still a decent fragger (around 1.0 rating is pretty solid for a veteran rifler igl). I was aware of everyones potential in this lineup except from t9rnay. However I do trust you lot responding to my question, as I expect you guys have more knowledge of the brazilian scene than I do. So if you guys all say he is a good up an comer, I believe it. Tbh this lineup is probably my fav of the new brazilian ones. Furia will still most certainly be better in terms of ranking but this team is a very exciting darkhorse.

2023-07-10 14:40

Fluxo will be the team that will perform better among the Brazilian teams formed, you will see

2023-07-10 16:50

I think they will be top 3 for sure! Personally I think furia will be the best followed by fluxo.

2023-07-10 17:16

T9rnay is a very good and promising player, perhaps among the top 7 best players in Brazil

2023-07-10 16:47

2023-07-09 23:10

good team, im not sure if it's better than the last one tho. zevy >> history PKL=WOOD7 t9rnay << felps the roster will depend a lot on t9rnay to keep performing and zevy to regain confidence

for sure it is....... biguzera instead of PKL would be the change to become like tier 1.5 min

2023-07-10 00:21

history was better, but he wanted to leave so..

2023-07-10 03:13

WOOD7 on the same level as PKL? that guy can't even turn around, PKL is a massive upgrade. The only thing I don't understand is why they got 2 primary awpers instead of an awper and a good rifler, there are loads in brazil

2023-07-10 12:53

where the hell did they get 2 awpers

2023-07-10 13:54

t9rnay and zevy are both awpers

2023-07-10 14:18

t9rnay is listed as a rifler on liquipedia so he might have Awped because he had to

2023-07-10 14:20

Wait you're right, I don't know why but I remember him using mainly the awp during the start of his stint with Red Canids

2023-07-10 14:34

T9rnay is not Awper, he is one of the best riflers in Brazil

2023-07-10 16:52

every team that WOOD7 leads stands out, at least nationally. BRAVOS, MIBR and Fluxo, it's a pattern. He might not be the best mechanically, but he is proven to be a good IGL. PKL is pretty much the same.

2023-07-10 14:08

...no? What are the big accomplishments that these teams had? This guy was only good in Tier 3 NA

2023-07-10 14:19

PKL doesn't have so much big accomplishments as well. as for WOOD7, he hasnt many international trophies, but in a big national scene he's one of the few that stands out, thats something. WOOD7's BRAVOS, MIBR and Fluxo would compete face to face with PKL's pain.

2023-07-10 16:44

PKL atleast went on to play different important tournaments and has more experience than Wood7, reason why they went with him instead of the latter

2023-07-10 19:31

Zevy > History PKL > Wood T9rnay = Felps

2023-07-10 16:51

felps irn is way better than t9rnay, but i could agree with pkl being better than wood7

2023-07-10 18:29

not actually

2023-07-14 02:47

this team should be top 30 at least, looks better than old lineup

Why this t9rney kid instead of hardzao? Fluxo lost a big opportunity here

Because t9rnay is better than Hardzao

2023-07-10 16:53

t9rnay has been so good lately... and PKL knows how to use his awpers... lucaozy crazy good as well. Good roster.

2023-07-09 23:20

top 50 easy

hltv users: ''buuaahh br teams always recycling the same players'' *fluxo signs with t9rnay* also hltv users: ''who is this kid lol wtf nonamer bot, kick him rn''

2023-07-09 23:27

Solid

benching felps who is the only remaining world class player in BR (outside of furia) to bring in pkl/t9rnay is the stupidest move i have seen all year, even worse than navi's.

2023-07-09 23:35

Felps no longer seemed so happy on the team, it must have been an agreement on both sides, and Felps is no longer in his prime, I would think it's fair to trade him to risk on t9rney, which is deserving of attention

2023-07-09 23:47

Felps hasn't been performing well these last few months, and t9rnay is the most promising player playing in Brazil, the team has given a good upgrade

2023-07-10 16:57

upgrade for online tournaments sure

2023-07-10 18:02

Why didn't they keep Felps tho? Or did he really become that bad?

2023-07-09 23:54

Felps is going to Imperial, to replace Chelo... I think this move was not a Fluxo's choice

2023-07-10 00:35

2023-07-10 01:21

t9rnay/PKL instead of felps? Dude

2023-07-10 01:59

XDDDD

Honestly, feels like a sideways move from Fluxo. T9rnay can be great, buthe is widely untested against even T2. PKL is not a huge upgrade on WOOD7 and Pain best moments came under Biguzera leadership. I think zevy is an upgrade on history, but not by a wide margin.

2023-07-10 02:11

+1 Fluxo had a little upgrade but could’ve been much better, i personally strugle to see this lineup lasting for too long

2023-07-10 02:27

As someone who isnt super familiar with SA cs scene i have to ask... Who tf are these guys???

2023-07-10 03:38

-PKL +biguzera This team would go far

2023-07-10 04:01

solid tier 100

2023-07-10 04:51

Solid I see what they did there, VSM + Lucaozy combo PKL = ok igl Zevy = decent Awper T9rney = young promise Kinda makes sense, yes. They should take this opportunity and compete in international tournaments, imo.
