Swedish team EYEBALLERS has announced the decision to suspend Maikil “Golden⁠” Selim and Peppe “Peppzor⁠” Borak from the main roster. The decision left the team with three active players and sparked interest in the future development of the squad, which was once considered a promising prospect on the professional CS scene.

Reasons for lineup changes

EYEBALLERS has had a challenging year. The major changes began back in March when Golden came in to replace Casper “SHiNE⁠” Wennerberg, who was relegated to the bench. Peppzor, who joined the team in December 2022 after appearances in fnatic Rising and fnatic, has also been at the center of the reshuffle. Despite significant successes, such as winning Svenska Cuppen and participating in the closed qualifiers at PGL Major Copenhagen EU RMR, the team has been unable to reach the next level, which has led to the current personnel decisions.

Specifics of the changes

EYEBALLERS plans to build the new team around the remaining players - Jesper “JW⁠” Wecksell, Ludvig “HEAP⁠" Alonso and Alex “poiii⁠” Nyholm Sundgren. For the near future the team intends to hold trial games to find the two missing members and make up a full roster again.

The current roster is as follows:

• Jesper "⁠JW⁠" Wecksell
• Ludvig "⁠HEAP⁠" Alonso
• Alex "⁠poiii⁠" Nyholm Sundgren
  
  
• Kevin "⁠Kevve⁠" Bohlin (coach)
• Peppe "⁠Peppzor⁠" Borak (benched)
• Maikil "⁠Golden⁠" Selim (benched)
