Azbayar “Senzu” Munkbold, a young talent from Mongolia, surprised the esports community with his rise to success on the CS2 scene. His career began with a scandal that could have put an end to his future, but today he plays as The MongolZ and has already reached the playoffs of the Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024.

Scandal with skins at NKT

In 2023, Senzu was at the center of a scandal when he was accused of skin fraud. Back then, the 16-year-old player took skins from his NKT accounts, promising to use them for gaming, but instead placed bets on esports events with them. The team officially confirmed this fact and also provided evidence that Senzu lied to avoid responsibility. This incident led to Senzu's expulsion from NKT.
