HEN1 joins RED Canids

The spirited AWPer formally joins coldzera's team after a brief period on Imperial's bench.

HEN1 has quickly returned to action after his Imperial benching

RED Canids have announced the signing of Henrique "⁠HEN1⁠" Teles to their Counter-Strike roster on a loan from Imperial. The 29-year-old joins the team as a replacement for Wesley "⁠hardzao⁠" Lopes, who was benched in late July.

HEN1 had sitting on the sidelines since June, when he was benched from Imperial despite being one of their strongest performers and later replaced by former 9z sniper Santino "⁠try⁠" Rigal.

Official: Imperial sign try

He didn't waste any time to find a new team as he joins forces with another Brazilian veteran, Marcelo "⁠coldzera⁠" David, for the first time in his over decade-long career just over a month after his benching.

HEN1's addition to the RED Canids squad comes as somewhat of a surprise given that there already was an existing AWPer on the roster in the form of Gabriel "⁠nython⁠" Lino.

But it appears that nython has given up the sniper for HEN1. In the team's ESL Challenger Atlanta South American qualifier matches, the new member was seen manning the Big Green — and topping the tournament's charts with a 1.31 rating while doing so, albeit to no avail as RED Canids finished runners-up to ODDIK.

RED Canids have the following team:

Marcelo "⁠coldzera⁠" David
Gabriel "⁠nython⁠" Lino
Carlos "⁠venomzera⁠" Eduardo
David "⁠dav1deuS⁠" Tapia Maldonado
Henrique "⁠HEN1⁠" Teles
