The recent report by BIG announcing Ismailcan "XANTARES" Dörtkardeş’s release from his contract has climbed up the sports bulletin. Opening the way for a new project, XANTARES’s step down from BIG’s active roster is likely to be productive with Nicklas "gade" Gade replacing him in the team.
Özgür "woxic" Eker and XANTARES pairing for the domestic superteam is another highlight to the news with the latter still retained for the Turkish lineup. The MVP medal from DreamHack Open Summer 2020 Europe as the send-off gift for XANTARES, the 26-year-old leaves the BIG following an eight-week stint with the No. 1 team in the world. Thus, woxic, Buğra "Calyx" Arkın, and XANTARES to join forces for the rumored Turkish superteam since the 22-year-old AWPer’s return to competition with a five-man squad "ready to compete and grind".
