s1mple joins Falcons on loan; BOROS benched
The Jordanian rifler is out of the team mere days after Falcons' RMR failure.

Falcons has benched Mohammad "BOROS" Malhas and in a shocking move, added Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev on a one-month loan from Natus Vincere.
The Ukrainian superstar makes his return to Counter-Strike after taking a break from competition in October, with the Saudi organization making the call to change their roster mere days after their disastrous exit from PGL Major Copenhagen Europe RMR A.

When announcing his break, s1mple said it would be "interesting" to see offers upon his return, and revealed he would consider switching roles to be a rifler as he felt the AWP was not as impactful in Counter-Strike 2.
That is now a reality in Falcons as the player many consider to be Global Offensive's GOAT will replace BOROS, while Álvaro "SunPayus" García will continue wielding the Big Green as the Saudi organization looks "to rebalance the formation of our roster and move players into the necessary correct roles and positions."
s1mple's move to Falcons is a temporary one — for now — as he has only been signed on a one-month loan from Natus Vincere to allow Falcons to field a full roster for BLAST Premier Spring Showdown. Falcons' General Manager, Grant Rousseau, added that this would "give us the flexibility to make the permanent roster decision needed going into ESL Pro League, IEM Dallas, etc. whilst still giving us a great shot to make it out of BLAST Showdown."
BOROS' move to the bench comes after Falcons failed to qualify for PGL Major Copenhagen through Europe RMR A, where they were eliminated with a 1-3 record with losses to FaZe, Eternal Fire, and AMKAL.
The organization cited "performance reasons" for the Jordanian rifler's removal from the lineup, with Danny "zonic" Sørensen previously speaking of a lack of professionalism and timekeeping early in the new roster's lifespan. Long-term trust in BOROS from Marco "Snappi" Pfeiffer and the rest of the team has also been questionable given the team's role distribution, which saw the 19-year-old not given most of the typical star rifler roles that would fit the team's composition of players.

Alongside the changes, Falcons' assistant coach Rafael "Feldman" Rodriguez has also been released. The team's next event is BLAST Spring Showdown, scheduled to run from March 6-10.
Falcons are:
Marco "Snappi" Pfeiffer
Pavle "Maden" Bošković
Emil "Magisk" Reif
Álvaro "SunPayus" García
Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev (stand-in)
Danny "zonic" Sørensen (coach)
Nathan "NBK-" Schmitt (benched)
Mohammad "BOROS" Malhas (benched)
