MIRAA, stich return to HLTV news team
Two experienced writers join our ranks to strengthen coverage as we transition to Counter-Strike 2.

The transfer season is heating up and it turns out that it is not just Counter-Strike players that are making moves. Following up on our post about HLTV looking for new writers, we are happy to announce we have found them, albeit they aren't exactly new.
Returning to HLTV after a two-year stint at Dexerto is Luís "MIRAA" Mira. This veteran journalist covered Counter-Strike 1.6 as well as CS:GO for over a decade of working for HLTV, and it is only fitting that he returns to the website for the third time as we move over to Counter-Strike 2.
In 2023, one of the ambitions of the news team led by Milan "Striker" Švejda has been to break more stories such as the RMR integrity issues, NAVI's interest in w0nderful, or the Major happening in Shanghai. With the return of Luís to the team, who will be taking on the role of Lead Reporter, we intend to push those journalistic efforts even further.

But why stop at one comeback? Also returning is Michal "stich" Malachowski, the Polish-American HLTV writer and interviewer from 2014-2016, who was once described as someone "trying way too hard to be funny" for his witty "under-pic-texts" by Jesper "JW" Wecksell.
We believe that a bit of incisive writing is exactly what is missing in Counter-Strike coverage and Michal's unique style fits that niche perfectly. He won't be working with us full time, so don't expect to see him at events or writing day-to-day news, but you will be able to read one interesting editorial piece from him every week, starting with his debut on Sunday, November 5th.
Michal and Luís join an already established and prolific lineup of writers, with the 8-person squad combining for nearly 50 years of writing experience.
So aside from the new stuff, you will still be getting deep-dives from Lucas "LucasAM" Aznar Miles, Danish "Nohte" Allana's event interviews and (financial) reporting, Harry "NER0" Richards' stats wizardry, Arron "King Dempz" Dempsey's historic and opinion pieces, and Žan "sumljiv" Zupanič's underdog coverage, all under the oversight of our Editor-in-chief, Milan "Striker" Švejda.
HLTV's news team is:
Milan "Striker" Švejda - Editor-in-chief
Lucas "LucasAM" Aznar Miles - Features Editor
Luís "MIRAA" Mira - Lead Reporter
Danish "Nohte" Allana - Senior Writer
Harry "NER0" Richards - Senior Writer
Arron "King Dempz" Dempsey - Writer
Žan "sumljiv" Zupanič - Writer
Michal "stich" Malachowski - Features Writer
In order to find the star writers of tomorrow, we are still filing through the applications for Intermediate/Junior Writers from our latest application process, and will hopefully add someone soon. Additionally, if you are a freelance writer and have a high-quality, unique feature piece you would like us to publish, feel free to reach out to us via email.
