G2 Esports will take part in this year’s VCT EMEA in the same way as the big ones in Europe like Gambit, Fnatic or Team Liquid. However, it was not won and to qualify, the Samurai worked hard. G2’s golden era has long since ended and the structure isn’t as scary as it used to be. It must be said that the competition has gone up a notch and that it is very difficult to find a place.
Speaking of golden era, the last survivor of it has been officially benched. Oscar”mixwell” Cañellas Colocho, courageous captain of the team, declared himself transferable. If he is still linked to G2, he is authorized to start negotiations with other structures. This is the logical continuation for the Spaniard who had lost his starting spot a few weeks ago in favor of the Frenchman Keloqz. With a place for two, it was not yet clear who would win the race, but things are now clear.
What future for Mixwell?
For a while, Mixwell was considered the best player in the world on Valorant. The former CS:GO professional had perfectly negotiated his transition and the viewers were and still are very numerous on his personal streams. Even today, despite his situation, he retains popularity within the community. We are ready to bet that several structures will be interested in his profile. Experienced, popular and above all talented, he has arguments to make. While Ocelote is not the type to let his talents run free, there will also be a need to settle the possible question of a buyout.
The fans of G2 will still have a little tear in their eye with this future departure. Mixwell had been there since the beginning of the project and was the sole survivor of the original line-up. But after a brilliant start, we must admit that the love story had taken a less glorious turn in recent months… Above all, it’s without the Spaniard but with Keloqz that G2 has secured its place in VCT. Place for youth and renewal.
