]]>The move places EliGE in another North American squad while Team Liquid forges ahead with their decision to migrate to the European region. The team have already signed Russian rifler Robert ��Patsi�� Isyanov and Bulgarian rifler Aleks ��Rainwaker�� Petrov.
EliGE officially left Team Liquid on June 22, marking the end of the duo��s over eight-year relationship, the longest ever between a player and a team. He has been competing on the lineup since 2015 and was integral to multiple tier 1 tournament wins.
Shortly after leaving the organization, EliGE was reportedly in talks with Evil Geniuses to join the organization but the deal fell through. The player initially declined Complexity��s offer in favor of Evil Geniuses�� potential signing; however, a last-minute change killed off the negotiations.
EG were also in talks with players like Aleksandr ��zorte�� Zagodyrenko and Audric ��JACKZ�� Jug and had reached verbal agreements with them. None of the deals were concluded, foiling Evil Geniuses�� plan to form an ambitious new European majority roster.

EliGE��s move to Complexity will see the player reunite with former Team Liquid teammate, Michael “?Grim?” Wince. The player is already a key performer on Complexity after he was signed in January this year.
Other players on Complexity include Johnny “?JT?” Theodosiou, H?kon “?hallzerk?” Fj?rli, and Ricky “?floppy?” Kemery.
Complexity announced a day earlier that FaNg who has been with them for just over a year had been moved to the inactive roster.
��As of today, Justin “@FaNgJC” Coakley has been placed on our inactive roster while we look to find him a new home. We’d like to thank Justin for his commitment and look forward to his future in CS,�� the tweet read.
FaNg started playing with Complexity early last year, joining the organization when they signed the Extra Salt roster. With him on the lineup, Complexity were able to reach the semi-finals of the Electronic Sports League Challenger in February 2022 and participated in the Majors in Antwerp and Paris.
Prior to the decision to part ways with FaNg, Complexity faced an underwhelming few months, winning only around a third of their matches against top-50 opposition. FaNg averaged a 0.95 rating during this period.
The CS:GO team expects to see some improvement with the signing of EliGE who is an Intel Grand Slam and six-time Big Event winner. The squad will likely find more success participating in American qualifiers and RMR events with Liquid��s decision to move to the European region.
EliGE will make his debut with Complexity at the BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2023. The event will kick off in Copenhagen, Denmark, from July 13 to 23 in a studio format.

]]>For the past weeks, the organization have made attempts to sign EliGE to their Counter Strike team, following his departure from Team Liquid. He parted ways with the organization after Liquid signed Aleks “Rainwaker” Petrov and Robert “Patsi” Isyanov, to replace him.
The talks between Evil Geniuses and EliGE progressed so much that the player declined an offer from Complexity in order to accept Evil Geniuses�� potential contract. Negotiations between the two parties have been stalled as the roster plans of Evil Geniuses have reportedly changed.
For now, EliGE is evaluating his options to decide on his next move. While his relationship with Team Liquid is still amicable, the team are already planning another season without him and will likely not prioritize reintegrating him into the fold.
On the other hand, Complexity, who previously offered to sign the player, could still be in the running. It is however uncertain if the team can rush through the transfer process over the next few hours to meet up with the BLAST Premier Fall Groups roster submission deadline.
There is also the possibility that EliGE could end up without a team and remain on the bench until the arrival of the much anticipated Counter-Strike 2.
Evil Geniuses had also entered a verbal agreement with zorte, however, they were unable to purchase the player for unknown reasons. When the organization were contacted for comment, Evil Geniuses stated that there was ��still a lot up in the air.��
Over the past weeks, Evil Geniuses have been making moves to shift from the North American CS:GO scene to Europe by acquiring a core from that region.
Besides EliGE and zorte, the organization have been targeting players like Audric “JACKZ” Jug, and Denis “electroNic” Sharipov. The team also intends to return Damien “maLeK” Marcel to his previous role of coach.
Evil Geniuses�� are set to make their next appearance at the BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2023. The event will kick off on July 13 and conclude on July 23.
The deadline for the tournament��s roster submission is June 22, meaning that if Evil Geniuses fail to file an application before then, they could be dropped to the bottom of the seeding as punishment.
