ENCE sign rigoN; bench gla1ve

sdy will take over in-game leadership with the team's former skipper moving to the bench.

rigoN returns to action with ENCE after BNE's disbandment in June

ENCE has announced the signing of Rigon "⁠rigoN⁠" Gashi, who has been without a team since the rebooted Bad News Eagles, the team in which he made several runs to the Major's Legend Stage in Antwerp, Rio and Paris in 2022-2023, disbanded before the summer break.

Bad News Eagles set to disband

The Swiss-Kosovar player had previously been in BIG from June 2024 through the end of that year, but his aggressive playstyle was a mismatch for the meticulous play of Johannes "⁠tabseN⁠" Wodarz's system in the German squad and ended with a parting of ways after just half a year.

Now, the 25-year-old will have the chance to prove his worth on an international roster for the first time since 2019 and 2020, when he first started to make waves in the tier two scene with Secret and c0ntact.

rigoN and BIG part ways

Outgoing to make place for the newcomer in the starting five is Lukas "⁠gla1ve⁠" Rossander, who has been moved to the bench after a year-and-a-half stint in ENCE, albeit one with little success as the team lost a core that contended for championships and started a rebuild around the IGL with mostly young and unproven players.

The Dane won't leave with an empty trophy cabinet, however, as he led ENCE to a victory on home soil at at Elisa Masters Espoo 2024. “A big thank you to Lukas for his time with us," says Niklas "Willkey" Ojalainen, ENCE's General Manager. "He has been a great player to work with, consistently working hard and giving his all at ENCE, and it was an honor to lift the trophy with Lukas at Elisa Masters Espoo.

"Unfortunately, we couldn’t achieve the level of success we aimed for as a team, so it's now time to look ahead and build for the future."

gla1ve's crowning achievement with ENCE was winning Elisa Masters in Finland

gla1ve's departure leaves the team's captaincy open, which will be taken over by Viktor "⁠sdy⁠" Orudzhev, a role the Ukrainian previously held during his time in Monte, when he took over in-game leadership ahead of the BLAST.tv Paris Major in 2023.

Additionally, ENCE announced that 20-year-old prospect Ville "⁠myltsi⁠" Vilkman, who was brought up from the academy team to take the place of Ninjas in Pyjamas loanee Kacper "⁠xKacpersky⁠" Gabara, has been signed on a trial basis to "allow both myltsi and the team to assess their compatibility and long-term potential."

Karrigan have been washed since 27, go look at his performance in Team Envyus, without star players around him he can do nothing. Gla1ve with Faze would do 10x better just like when gla1ve took over Astralis from karrigan.

Zonic babysitted and created gla1ve. That's hard known facts. Karrigan is original. And it's known facts tha Karrigan picked all FaZe players aswell besides rain, but it's Karrigan who WANTS to keep rain on he's squad aswell. Anyways no use arguing with someone who doesn't know shit. And have 0 Intel fra the Danish scene.

again you're just talking out of your ass. "Zonic created gla1ve that's a hard known fact". Look up the definition of what a fact is lmfao. Gla1ve was brought into Astralis after karrigan choking his ass away like he has done ever since and in just 2 months they won their first major and IEM katowice, yet you think this was all Zonic? why didnt he do whatever you think he can with Karrigan then? Why has he failed miserably with Falcons? Why did he spend the first 1,5 years with Vitality being dogshit? Why has Vitality raised their levels significantly since Zonic left? I know a lot more of the danish scene than you do kiddo. Karrigan have struggled with every squad when he isnt surrounded by star players. You talk like you have insight in Faze while you have 0, Karrigan legit got booted by faze before and you think he's controlling everything? you're retarded

Mr_Vista, clearly Mr_Clueless. Longevity hahahaha. Those Swedish newbs played Roblox on lan and won trophies when the game was nothing. Glaive made the game WHAT it is supposed to be. Astralis Glaive shaped the game into what EVERONE is doing even 6 years later. Even karrigan had the chance to do it, yet he was replaced with Glaive and suddenly Astralis changed the game for ever. The only reason Glaive didn't move forward is, that he completed cs by doing the Astralis era. HE CHOSE to start a family, have kids, spent his time elsewhere while working with cs as a second priority as long as possible. Glaive will always be the GOAT of cs history when it comes to IGLs. No one can ever repeat what he did. He took a game that was nothing, made it way more advanced than anyone could predict at that time, which gave Astralis the greatest era of cs history, untill Astralis lost their ways by seeking new ways on the scene, since Astralis achieved everything, and they all wanted to achieve more with new players to showcase their individual level. Glaive will always be nr. 1 in cs history. Then u all can debate 2nd place for karrigan, apex and whoever u like.

You did see Zonic brain fart for falcons, right? Zonic ain't no tactical genius. 🤣 All of Astralis members even said in multiple interviews that his role was a father figure. Supportive, kind-hearted, a friend and a mental coach. We can't know for sure who was the tactical genius on Astralis era. But all we can assume is the roles they had. All points at, that glaive was the master mind of the reforming of how to play cs.

"better longevity" blud won 6 trophies after 2014. Majority of the trophies were in 2012 / 2013 where the only other good team was the Frenchie's in VeryGames, while the rest of the top players / teams still grinded 1.6 until they realized between start of 2013 to about 1/2 through 2013 that the cs 1.6 pro scene is dead and all events will either migrate to csgo or dissolve. Gla1ve's tactics literally changed how every top team plays csgo, meanwhile a certain team and their tactics fell off after 2-3 years advantage as soon as more than 1 good team started playing the game lmao. I'd say 2/8 rage b8. But most likely just delusional with flag checking out.

All these igl's just brining the best out of their players within the team. Gla1ve not only did that, but changed how the whole pro scene plays. Only a GOAT can do that, literally without 0 delusion or bias. He stole VP's 2nd major and I can still see past that and say he is the GOAT.

Pronax 2 majors in 2015, and beating the nip for the first major in the biggest upset EVER Xizt, 2 mvps, a major, igling to 87-0, and an amazing coach after he retired (i hope gla1ve does the same btw) Karrigan is lacking in majors, that is his biggest weak point, is he a better igl, YES, has he won more?

It's pretty simple... 3 young players without experience from tier 1 or big LAN events and 2 players that are more experienced. sdy will be the igl most likely and rigoN won't be anchor because they have already Neityu.

Yeah, who knows. My guess is that they will make at least 1 change during winter break. Probably -myltsi if he isn't good enough or if they find some awper that is clear upgrade from podi. Probably their playstyle will change as well, maybe even perma ban.

imho phzy would be slight upgrade, but not that big of an upgrade compared to podi. It's totally possible that podi might play more aggro now that they have rigoN and sdy is igl. But consistency wise phzy is more stable option for sure. My guess is that they might change podi during player break.

Sorry but you cant blame him for everything. Podi and Neityu were inconsistent all the time (podi has a impact rating below 1.0). Maybe change the igl was the right idea (they should follow sdy and kuben path before). Changing only igl can help a little bit und dont fix everything.

Exactly. ENCE doesn't need anchor because they have Neityu. My guess is that Enkay J told what type of a player he is. My guess is that rigoN will be entry and myltsi probably lurker. And like the article said myltsi (trial) so ENCE can sign someone OR xkacpersky's contract has a clause that allows ENCE to call him back or something like that.

Yeah but I doubt that xKacpersky will comeback to ENCE, and myltsi is basically the same story as with podi, we all know they have potential, they can pop up sometimes, but overall they're just not ready and it's visible in the instability of their play, I think ENCE is cooked, especially with sdy now doing the calling, atleast they had a good leader before.

Dude... myltsi has played like 5 maps in main roster, You cannot expect him to destroy everyone. Same thing happened with Jimpphat, he was at first kinda shaky, but couple of months in main roster and people were calling him best anchor in the scene. lol. THey can always send myltsi back to academy or loan him. And if they find some obvious upgrade to awper then they probably poach him.

i think sdy as an igl is fine. The problem ence have right now is podis inconsistency (he has a impact below 1.0 in the last 3 months). I think martinezsa would be a good fit.

2 replies
My guess is that playstyle will change now that sdy is calling and podi might play more aggressively. But ENCE's biggest issue at the moment is inconsistency from younger players, which is kinda understandable. myltsi is in trial, so he can be replaced and demoted back to academy if needed, but if they find some awper that is obvious upgrade then they would be cooking.

I'm not taking about his performance in main roster, I'm talking about his performance in the academy, where he was fine but nothing spectacular, just the same as podi. Jimpphat in Academy was already a super-star in the anchor roles, you don't see that with podi and myltsi, it looked completely different. And the thing about those upgrades is, they just lost xKacpersky, which arguably was their best player in my eyes, they got rid of gla1ve in favour of washed rigoN, I mean, they're not making any upgrades, it's all just getting worse, that's what I'm worried about.

Let me be clear... I'm pretty sure that ENCE's rebuild isn't ready. They knew that signing of gla1ve had it's risks and it didn't pan out as they thought. sdy (igl) rigoN (entry) Neityu (anchor) myltsi still in trial and podi can be upgraded if there is some awper that fits to their playstyle. Besides gla1ve isn't the igl anymore with his slow calling style, so I expect more aggressive playstyle now that rigoN is signed.

Well, at some point i guess being the igl of a team that is in constant rebuild can be tiring. Seems a shitty position to be. Best of luck to sdy, he will need it because ENCE seems to be more focused on developing young talents and sell them (which isn't a bad focus, business are business after all).

eh, "prop'o" which is short for "propao" doesn't only mean "fell though". It can also mean that person aged poorly, also "poderane gace" is not just "torn underpants pants", it's also "worn down underpants" So there is a double meaning that's hard to translate in an effective manner. It's sort of an image rich way of saying that gla1ve got so bad with age that he can't even do basic things. But it's not really fun when I say it that way now is it...
