In light of recent successes on the Swedish cybersport scene, GODSENT has made a radical decision - the core of their team will now be the academic squad formerly known as Young Gods.

This decision not only opens up a new avenue for young talent, but also demonstrates a strategic shift in the organization's development. I wonder if these young players will be able to live up to expectations and strengthen GODSENT's position in esports.

History and Background

Previously, Young Gods, a team representing Godsent Academy, attracted attention with their results in Elitserien, one of Sweden's premier Counter-Strike leagues. However, after several replacements in the squad, the management decided to reconsider the academy's role. In particular, the impressive performances of Liam “Mail09” Tügel, Leo “Wonder” Wänlund and Charlie “Cham” Ahlm, led to them becoming part of the main roster.

New lineup

Godsent's new lineup features five young talents whose average age is only 18.2 years old.

• Charlie “Cham” Ahlm (IGL)
• Leo “Wonder” Wänlund
• Frank “Fraaank” Issal
• Timmy “Sn0w” Bruhn
• Liam “Mail09” Tügel
  
  
• Samuel “Zyppe” Martinsson

Future plans

Godsent plan to expand their influence in Swedish cybersport by launching a new Young Gods project called Godsent IF. It will be a cybersport association created in cooperation with the Swedish Cybersport Federation. The main goal of the project is to create and develop elite youth Counter-Strike teams in Sweden.

Final thoughts

Godsent's youth team development project is a step forward in Swedish esports. The support of sponsors and cooperation with the federation can significantly improve the training of young talent, which in the long run can make Sweden even more influential on the global Counter-Strike scene. Whether this team will be able to live up to expectations, time will tell, but the start looks promising.
