The first tournament of 2025 in the Americas region has concluded, and 2GAME Esports was among the first teams to be eliminated, failing to win a single map in two matches. Due to this disappointing result, the team is reportedly planning roster changes, according to media sources.
According to Game Arena, 2G Esports is considering replacing Luis "pryze" Henrique with academy player Estevão "Askia" Ferreira. Askia was originally set to debut for 2GAME Esports Academy on February 13, but rumors suggest this will no longer happen, as another player will take his place in the academy. If the transfer is confirmed, the updated 2G Esports roster for VCT 2025: Americas Stage 1 will be as follows:
2G Esports is in arguably the worst position among all Ascension winners, except for G2 Esports. Another failure in the next tournament will almost certainly lead to their relegation from the league and a return to Challengers. Meanwhile, their only direct rival, G2 Esports, is performing exceptionally well and dominating the region, significantly increasing their chances of retaining a league spot. This makes changes—whether in roster or strategy—necessary for 2G Esports after their poor showing at VCT 2025: Americas Kickoff.
The team’s next tournament will be VCT 2025: Americas Stage 1, set to take place in Berlin at the Riot Games Arena. The event will run from March to May, though exact dates have not yet been confirmed. The tournament will feature three slots for the second Masters of the year and valuable circuit points.
