American organization Evil Geniuses has announced the disbandment of its main CS:GO roster, sending four out of five players, excluding the coach, to the bench. At the same time, players from the "junior" roster, EG Black, have been promoted to the main team.

From the previous lineup, only sniper Timothy "autimatic" Ta will continue to compete for Evil Geniuses, while Vincent "Brehze" Cayonte, Sanjar "neaLaN" Ishkakov, Jerrik "wiz" Jiang, Ismail "refrezh" Ali, and the coach are now inactive.

Updated Evil Geniuses lineup

• autimatic
• Walco
• Jeorge
• junior
• HexT
• Axed (coach)
• RUSH (substitute)

It is known that 29-year-old William "RUSH" Wierzba will act as an emergency substitute in the upcoming tournaments.

It should be noted that in the year of its existence, the EG Black roster, in its various variations, earned just over $75,000 in prize money, achieving relatively modest results in their domestic region.
