Serbian esports organization Zero Tenacity announced changes to its Counter-Strike 2 roster. According to the official X page, Montenegrin Maden replaced Bosnian simke as the team's rifler.

Details of the roster changes and expectations for Zero Tenacity

Maden, who had been without a team recently, joined Zero Tenacity after simke left the main roster. The reasons for the replacement have not been officially disclosed, but the esports community speculates that it may be related to the team's unstable results in recent tournaments. Maden is known for his aggressive play and high level of individual skill, which could add the necessary momentum to the team ahead of important matches, given his experience.

Please welcome Maden to the squad! A veteran of the biggest stages. Battled the best. Sharpened by legends. Now, he’s here to conquer with Z10.
