In a strategic move to fortify its esports prowess, ENCE has successfully acquired three talented Polish players. Thus, marking a pivotal moment for the Finnish organization. The trio—Krzysztof "Goofy" Górski, Kacper "Kylar" Walukiewicz, and Olek "hades" Miskiewicz—join the ranks after the departure of Alvaro "SunPayus" Garcia, Pavle "Maden" Bošković, and Guy "NertZ" Iluz.

Return of the Sniper: Hades Back to ENCE After 1.5 Years

A significant highlight of this acquisition is the return of the 23-year-old sniper, hades, after a hiatus of 1.5 years. Having last played for the organization from May 2021 to August 2022, hades brings his seasoned skills back to his previous org, replacing SunPayus and concluding a period with Finest and 9INE.

Complete Roster for 2024 Season

With the addition of Goofy, Kylar, and hades, the now Polish side has finalized their roster for the upcoming 2024 season. The trio joins forces with Lukas "gla1ve" Rossander and Paweł "dycha" Dycha to form a formidable team poised for success.

The inclusion of the 9INE core also comes with a strategic advantage, as ENCE inherits their invitation to the PGL Copenhagen Major Europe RMR. This privilege is a result of the Polish players' notable performance in the Legends Stage of the BLAST.tv Paris Major.

The Complete Roster

The finalized roster for the 2024 season boasts an international lineup, representing both Poland and Denmark:

Coach: Jakub "kuben" Gurczynski

The return of hades and the inclusion of the formidable 9INE core signal a resounding comeback for ENCE. With a complete and dynamic roster, the team is poised for success in the upcoming season.
