G2 Esports kicked off Counter-Strike 2 rostermania last week with the removal of rifler Nexa, but the organization has been quick to lock in his replacement with Guatemalan superstar Mario “malbsMd” Samayoa announced as the team’s new fifth on June 28.
It wasn’t a well-kept secret, but the 21-year-old rifler has been officially unveiled as the new member of G2 after “passing his exam” yesterday. The Guatemalan said on X (formerly Twitter) following the announcement that he was keen to rip in with his new teammates. “Can’t still believe this happened but I’m more ready than ever to grind and become a better player and person than I was before,” he said, taking the time to thank his old squad M80.
