G2 CEO confirms m0NESY sale

The superstar AWPer will make the jump to Falcons ahead of IEM Melbourne.

PGL Bucharest was m0NESY's final match in a G2 jersey

G2 CEO Alban Dechelotte has confirmed that Ilya "⁠m0NESY⁠" Osipov has been sold to Falcons due to his contract expiring at the end of the year.

The Russian superstar will complete the move straight after PGL Bucharest and make his Falcons debut at IEM Melbourne, set to start on April 21.

m0NESY has been in Falcons' plans for a long time and came close to signing in the winter off-season, but the two organizations couldn't come to an agreement. With the superstar's contract now set to expire in just eight months, G2 have decided to bite the bullet and avoid losing m0NESY on a free transfer.

"Rumors are true. We have decided to accept the trade of our young goat of CS," Alban Dechelotte, G2's CEO, said in a statement.

"Ilya's contract ends in December of this year and we decided to maximize our chance of rebuilding our team for the future with this trade instead of hoping for a last minute turn of events.

"It was obvious that he was becoming a bit disconnected from the rest of the team due to his situation and it was very difficult to have meaningful conversations with potential talents without the clarity around his future."

The news comes straight after Falcons defeated m0NESY's G2 in the grand final of PGL Bucharest, with the Russian AWPer coming in to replace tournament MVP Abdul "⁠degster⁠" Gasanov.

"Sorry, that's all," m0NESY said in a post on Telegram. "Thanks to everyone who supported G2 and me all this time. It was a stage that made me stronger. [They are] people who will remain in my memory forever. The team that was home, a second family. Thank you for everything."

With the move, Falcons' starting lineup will be:

Denmark Emil "⁠Magisk⁠" Reif
Bosnia and Herzegovina Nikola "⁠NiKo⁠" Kovač
North Macedonia Damjan "⁠kyxsan⁠" Stoilkovski
Denmark René "⁠TeSeS⁠" Madsen
Russia Ilya "⁠m0NESY⁠" Osipov

G2 are expected to fill the void left by m0NESY's exit with Olek "⁠hades⁠" Miskiewicz's loan signing from Monte, according to an earlier report by HLTV.

The issue is hunter not being allowed to play any moving positions on ct. Dust2 is the Best example, snax and hunter sit on b for nothing while others don't know what to do, because there is no 2nd caller. G2 was so good with niko, because he knew what to do and how to react. I think this is not even snax's fault but mostly managment's issue with pushing the narrative of "new niko" in malbs. Broski can shoot but he isn't niko and the pressure on him is so high that he is unable to perform

That's actually so true. I know G2 has an org especially under the clown Peca is incredibly depressing to be in but you are right. I can't believe they didn't let him say Goodbye to his G2 fans... Even on the stage after Falcons won (since G2 was going to announce it right away anyways). I also can't believe they did Degster dirty like that. They should've let him enjoy his first trophy. The guy seems humble af & extremely greatful. That message he put out after winning the trophy was genuine.

I'm not sure but I think degster can be registered as a sub for another team, although even if he can't he'll get a fat package for this so I don't think these two months will be a big problem for him degster has last been good in OG in CSGO and even then he had his shakiness, rumors were that Heroic wanted to bench him before the Falcons offer came in, which means that he should be nothing but grateful to Falcons for this opportunity because he went from almost certainly going back to tier 2 to straight up having tier 1 offers in his dms right now "stat andy" over saying that a role player isn't better than niko or degster lmao

If you join this team you always know that you will be dropped doesnt matter how good you are... they dont care about you and dont know a respectful behaviour.

You can't compete with oil money...and the players don't want to stay so you have two options 1. Sell them while you can or... 2. Wait for the contract to expire and receive nothing for them cause they won't extend their contract. If G2 didn't remove Ocelote from the team I am quite sure he would have made sure they stayed happy but it is what it is.
2025-04-13 22:18

The thing is if the players want out, you're pretty much in a shit position. Sure, you can force them to stay, but that will only piss off the players leading to them becoming unmotivated and starting to slack off, dragging down the whole team. Most of the time the better option is to accepting that they wanna leave and try to get as much money out of the sales as possible to use for rebuilding your team. Whatever you're gonna do, never be like Faze and wait until their contracts run out and lose them for nothing in return.

It's also a good idea to keep treating the players well even if they want to leave. Treat them with respect and respect their wishes. Because you have a status and a name to uphold. The professional scene isn't that huge. Word will quickly get around. So if a rising star appears, they are more likely to choose you.

He's literally not. Last year out of top20 he has top2 top4 and a top12 teammates. Out of 7 events G2 wins 2, and people still glazing him, it's crazy. This year when their CT side caller left, G2 fell hard straight into the bottom they lose another star player. At ct side he is anchor so I'm not gonna talk about it, but at T side he literally is the closer of the team, he needs his teammates create space and gather infos for him, and he still has the lowest rating at T side. Sometimes he wins a clutch and people start saying "he's literally the sole reason they're not losing every single game." And for the god sake monesy has 1.28 ratings last 3 months while his team wins nothing.

sad to see how much hate broky is getting too - guy literally was chengdu mvp in 2024 and still has overall 1.08 rating and the guy's getting hate from hltv faceit level 8's and premier mm 19k ranking warriors. Broky will bounce back

That wasn't Vitality's fault. Ropz wanted out, because Faze and he himself were in a slump. They were going nowhere in tournaments and as a player you only wanna experience that for so long before moving on to a new team in hopes of better times.

true However, not falcons fault either because G2 and NIko himself were in a slump. G2 was going nowhere in tournaments the last few months. Bombed out of Katowice not even playoffs, early exits in esl pro league + in blast lisbon. After Lisbon Niko chose to move on and begin a new chapter with better times in a growing team with higher ambitions

I willpredict that G2 aren't going to win a trophy this year, but later they can buy better players for the future rebuild

"It was obvious that he was becoming a bit disconnected from the rest of the team due to his situation" This is such a gaslight and a half!! The audacity of that man to say this when rest of the team is not even T2, they can't even begin to comprehend how he thinks about the game and they'll need a lifetime to do it. On top of that, monesy asked to go with Niko, Falcons offered the most geneorus sum and G2 rejected that. What did you expect? For monesy to have a change of heart after you give him 2 T2 talents and 2 T2 washouts? It's disgraceful to talk like that. It's an absolute 1000% upper management failure, losing Niko and consequently monesy for 4 mil in total will cost G2 way more than that in the next year or two. Way more, they won't be a contender team, no eyes, no cameras, no engagement, sponsorships will come at a reduced rate and prize money will not cover anything. This is definitely a historical failure of an org to play their cards, they've literally had two aces and somehow lost on a bluff.

Since monesy wanted to go, they should have sold him together with Niko and spend money on someone with carry potential. I like heavygod but if you want to win something you need either 5 strong players like Mouz, or 2-3 players capable of taking over the games. Without this x factor your ceiling is being a good top10 team

Zywoo has 0 reason to leave Vitality Donk has 0 reason to leave Spirit NiKo is at the end/start of the end of his career as a top tier player, and he wanted to maximize the money he could get instead of trying to win with G2. It's the best possible scenario for him. He was always going to get paid big AND keep m0nesy on his side.

They probably lost 50% of their fanbase with niko and monesy leaving. The lost clout is insane and sponsors will recognize. Not to speak about lost prize money, merch etc.
2025-04-13 22:19

1 reply
I'd say 50% is a very modest estimate, their CS division has nothing going for it anymore. Niko is a powerhouse for him self and he was likely solely responsible for -50% of fanbase. Now they have awful players and even worse strats. Shining light being Heavygod which is worrying. They didn't go for Ropz, Spinx, Siuhy, snappi, nothing. Their highest prospects are players who built their names in T2 CS and are now making a jump. imo their chance for recovery is to disband the current squad and buy entire Mongolz squad. 4 mil is more than enough for that and they'll still be a T1 team and maintain all those sponsorship deals as well as decent cuts of prize money. They are bringing Hades ffs, guy who was repeatedly confirmed to have weak mental game and inability to play under any pressure. This is a T2 squad at best.

People forget when G2 tried to sign m0nesy, carlos was the one making calls. it really has nothing to do with the current management.

FUCK FALCONS! That's 3 teams they have now torn apart. Any trophy they win will be undeserved for the org. Blood money and sports washing, just buy every team around and tearing apart teams with great synergy. Fuck that org.

Selling a contract with like 8 months left is a wise move, I wonder who they'll get to replace him though.

degster > hades. Maybe they will just have Hades on trial so they can avoid having to discuss trades where probably won't get as much money for m0nesy and then sign degster later. Not that degster could replace m0nesy but better than Hades. But if there's one good thing about degster that former G2 lineup and the current one could have used is the overall "positive vibe" degster brings (can't tell about the past but he seems to have learnt his lessons from the past), the mood often killed G2, like they were always so mood-focused.
