HEROIC have announced the signing of Abdul "⁠degster⁠" Gasanov

HEROIC's recent acquisition of former OG AWPer Abdul "⁠degster⁠" Gasanov marks a significant shift in their roster strategy. Following his benching in June 2023, after his last appearance at the BLAST.tv Paris Major, degster brings a wealth of experience and skill to the team. Taking over the AWP role from Nico "⁠nicoodoz⁠" Tamjidi, who was sidelined due to stagnation post IEM Katowice, degster's signing reflects HEROIC's commitment to revitalizing their gameplay.

Coach Eetu "⁠sAw⁠" Saha emphasizes degster's versatility, initiative, and raw fragging power, highlighting his potential to elevate the team's performance. However, the move isn't without its risks, given reports of strained relationships with former teammates. Nevertheless, with a career average rating of 1.20, degster's addition promises a statistical upgrade and injects a new dynamic into HEROIC's lineup.
