Audric "JACKZ" Jug, a former G2 rifle player, and Valdemar "valde" Bjørn Vangså a current ENCE rifle player, have been added to the TSM Counter-Strike roster, confirming prior rumours that the company was linked to this new composition. Cai "CYPHER" Watson, who made an impression during Into the Breach's recent run to the BLAST, completes the lineup.tv France Timofey "interz" Yakushin, a longtime pillar of support for Cloud9, and Mădălin-Andrei "MoDo" Mirea, a 20-year-old Romanian AWPer who most recently worked with Nexus, competed in the major quarterfinals.
According to Dust2.us, TSM had planned to make their new lineup debut at CCT Online Finals 2, but they ultimately withdrew from the competition after a disagreement over verbal agreements made by the organisation reportedly developed between TSM, its new players, and head coach Rémy "XTQZZZ" Quoniam, who was credited with creating the new lineup.
