FURIA replace honda with drop

23/8/2021 - 19:50

The longest-serving member of FURIA's academy squad got a call up to the main roster.

FURIA will be promoting André "⁠drop⁠" Abreu to their main roster ahead of their campaign in ESL Pro League Season 14, the organisation has confirmed to Brazilian outlet ge. The 17-year-old will take the place of Lucas "⁠honda⁠" Cano, who replaced Paytyn "⁠junior⁠" Johnson in the active lineup in June after the American stepped down.

Whilst drop will be given the chance to develop and make the spot his own, the organisation did confirm that the search for a permanent fifth is still ongoing. Up to now drop has been playing for the FURIA Academy roster, and he was the standout player for them during the WePlay Academy League.

drop has been part of the FURIA Academy roster for the past 18 months

Currently, there is no guarantee that drop will be able to play at ESL Pro League. As he is not part of FURIA's official roster for the tournament, the team will need to make an emergency transfer request to ESL in order to add drop to their roster, as they are outside the transfer deadline (August 15).

If ESL reject the transfer request, then FURIA may be forced to play with coach Nicholas "⁠guerri⁠" Nogueira, or they alternatively may seek to fly honda in at the last minute. If the request is granted, drop will make his debut with the squad in their first match of ESL Pro League Group D against Entropiq, scheduled to take place on Wednesday, September 1, at 16:45 .

FURIA's lineup will be the following moving forward:

Andrei "⁠arT⁠" Piovezan
Yuri "⁠yuurih⁠" Santos
Vinicius "⁠VINI⁠" Figueiredo
Kaike "⁠KSCERATO⁠" Cerato
André "⁠drop⁠" Abreu

Nicholas "⁠guerri⁠" Nogueira (coach)

drop lol

Is Coldzera really going to Liquid? If COldzera isnt going to Liquid, FURIA is the dumbest team ever. They lose Fallen and Cold for international teams.

WHAT? I dont know about financial situation in CS, but in R6 they afford a lot in their team

because their R6 team bring back a lot of revenue, they dont spend jack shit in their CS team anymore because players got no fans, no hoes and dont stack paper. Even O plano got higher marketability and is more profitable to orgs despite being a tier 4 and furia being tier 1

you are talking loads of shit rn. they are waiting the best opportunity to choose a player for the major. the player market is really messy rn and they are replacing honda for the EPL (even though i dont agree w this). FURIA has a lot of cash but they are not dumb to pay double or more of a player's price now, they are looking for the best option

2021-08-24 03:13

Lmao no fucking way lol

2021-08-23 23:13

2021-08-23 19:56

If he isn't this shit makes no sense

he's just 17, maybe one day? but tier 1 still too soon for him

yeah he might have pontential but Furia need an awper rn

2021-08-23 20:02

no, art will awp and entry LMAOOOO

art will 1v5 next roster move

art is igl, he doesn't follow a particular role. he does entry often but furia's main entry is VINI.

2021-08-24 03:15

i dnt think he will awp for furia, he did not play with awp in furia academy

2021-08-23 23:40

disgusting, honda was the best player on that team, they will regret it soon

Well there are so many CIS cs players, they have to inherit cs talent from someone so must be your ancestors. So your comment is not a joke but sort of truth.

2021-08-23 22:03

Saffee should be the obvious choice.

2021-08-23 22:45

try is insane too.

even being argentinian it could work wonders, that would be insane, he is 16yo and great awper, would perform better than junior for sure.

2021-08-24 03:30

2021-08-24 11:34

because Pain and Sharks gonna lose RMR points

2021-08-24 00:03

Damn dude, you've actually brought something new to the discussion! That makes a lot of sense, thanks!

2021-08-24 00:21

2021-08-24 02:33

furia have money

2021-08-24 03:26

Replace bad with more bad

no saffee? lmao

Pain dreams of going to major, they don't want to lose RMR points

2021-08-23 23:11

and they will continue dreaming

2021-08-23 23:31

time to drop drop and get saffee

then who tf is signing cold ?

liquid

case

2021-08-23 23:30

ooll

2021-08-23 20:03

Better than honda but worse than saffee for furia current situation.

2021-08-23 20:04

hard to sign saffee, i want him in furia too but pain want to go to the major so its hard

2021-08-23 23:42

At this point they should just beg Hen1 to return,they can't find a replacement

2021-08-23 20:07

It's for sure good to remove honda, he had one good game and then 5 bad ones, and drop was pretty good on WePlay Academy League, so overall I think it's a great move for FURIA tbh. If VINI can find his consistency again then FURIA might actually be good again.

jaime padua review this situation, we need an official awper with extreme urgency, no entry fraggers...

?? lmao

bye

2021-08-23 20:13

167k for him in EPL fantasy good or not in your opinion guys?

2021-08-23 20:15

KKKKKKKKK

2021-08-23 20:19

KKKKKKKKK[...]KKKKKKKKKK wtf??

2021-08-23 20:20

drop in base 4 all

????? wtf

Kinda sad to see, but maybe he got some potential... just 17 years old

rip honda u will always be my flair

...you could say honda was dropped

2021-08-23 20:29

Awful move but expected from cheap ass furia

2021-08-23 20:30

LMAO kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

2021-08-23 20:37

Furia without Hen1 will never be the same

2021-08-23 20:45

2021-08-24 02:39

trash imo

2021-08-23 20:47

yuurih and kscerato should leave Furia. They are losing their prime in this futureless lineup.

2021-08-23 20:49

I agree with kscerato... but I think Yuurih is already past his prime... at least he is DROPing off

2021-08-23 22:17

right move imo. Furia bet on Junior and it didnt work out, so now is better to wait for the right fit as Junior was cleary good indvidually (e.g. saffe). Maybe someone unproven will be the best fit for now

2021-08-23 20:52

honda was always the backup but he never really did anything of note, always bottom of the scoreboard (even behind VINI) so it was always a matter of time until he was removed

2021-08-24 12:58

Garbage

2021-08-23 20:54

f Coldzera dream for fúria fans

2021-08-23 21:01

wouldn't be a good move tho

2021-08-23 23:32

Next week: FURIA drops drop

2021-08-23 21:03

Omg if you're picking someone from Furia Academy, why not Piria????? Drop so inconsistent

2021-08-23 21:08

drop me awp

2021-08-23 21:19

Why would you sign a vac banned kid?

2021-08-23 21:21

Hahahaha VAC BANNED PLAYER

2021-08-23 21:32

0.99 vs tier 99999,kscerato yuurih carry again

Another shitty player. Man, can't FURIA nail it since HEN1 left? Can't listen to their fans? For god's sake

Can I dream Cold?

2021-08-23 21:41

Who???

2021-08-23 21:52

?????????????? Saffeee, Zevy, coldzera, try, steelega, dav1d, nython, HEN1, ,Lucaozy, piria( from ur OWN academy TEAM) ????? Furia rn: youtu.be/DxXKhNeV_SY

2021-08-23 22:21

I think they know that, but theres probably a lot of bureaucracy easier to take a young talent from they academy team and let art be awper and IGL for the moment.

2021-08-23 23:33

!drop

FURIA is that company that hires an intern to perform a function that only a complete professional can actually perform

2021-08-23 22:27

drop? why not get some drip?

2021-08-23 22:32

Do they know Coldzera it’s available how dumb are these Brazilians

2021-08-23 22:48

MIBR and Furia hated each other there's no way they would sign any of them

2021-08-23 23:04

???? source: Times New Roman.

2021-08-27 14:19

fer's twitter "GG @furia" you guys fucking suck" and whole bunch of other stuff like fallen telling children he lost to that theyre cheaters

2021-08-27 15:55

An established organisation that aims to be competitive and slim instead of creating teams in order to attract investors will not consider names like Coldzera who have a high profile (that comes with high salary) but no hunger to win.

2021-08-23 23:59

Ofc they do. And they have probably proposed him a contract. He's an obvious choice that would fit perfectly with Art's aggressive playstyle. Having Art rush and someone as cold as Coldzera (sorry, couldn't help myself) to bait and trade him up would be a utopia for Furia. Coldzera said, in an interview, he received 7 or 8 proposals. That between European, American, and Br teams. In the same interview, Cold said he would try to join a team where he could be himself, and be in his comfort zone, which implies he prefers to join a BR team. Also, he made it clear that he would like to play alongside yuurih and kscerato, by electing them to his "Brazilian Dream Team", alongside him, Fallen, and TACO. They are not dumb. Have you at least considered the possibility that they just weren't able to sign Cold yet? Saying they're dumb just because they didn't sign such a player yet is the same nonsense as saying something like: "Do [any company in the world] know Bill Gates is available how dumb are these [company nationality]"

2021-08-27 14:56

drop has VAC ban, why take a someone who is not suitable for official tournaments? XD

bad

2021-08-23 23:18

maybe FURIA shoud take YAMAHA ?

who

2021-08-23 23:34

2021-08-23 23:53

what are you doing...

2021-08-24 00:00

WHAT A JOKE

2021-08-24 00:06

Honda is a superstar player, he can ace twice in a game and finish with 12 kills

2021-08-24 00:14

Thats not how superstars work

2021-08-24 15:23

Junior got more time to show his game than honda, i think they should give honda at least ESL and then dicide if its worth to kick him

2021-08-24 00:30

How do you replace a player with a callout from Cobblestone?

2021-08-24 00:50

Funny one my little China man.

2021-08-24 02:08

Unexpected but good luck, it worked out with Hondas debute

2021-08-24 01:07

Honda good car, but player? meh...

2021-08-24 01:15

Honda to Furia Academy confirmed

2021-08-24 01:21

interesting! GLHF!

2021-08-24 01:25

FURIA = most braindead team I’ve ever seen First they pick an awper from T2 NA with 1.10 rating (a decent but not good rate) and think “uuuh this guy is the next Zywh00” Not being satisfied they also change their language to English Then it work out the worse way possible And they upgrade honda to the main roster Turns out the sucks as well And while they have coldzera and RCF as free agents (not even mentioning saffee who would demand a huge buyout) They upgrade another bot from FURIA Academy to the main team that isn’t even what they need (Awper) 0.99 rating playing on Tier 9999 Imagine this guy on EPL14 Lmaooo They really going to waste another 6 months from arT, KSCT and yuuriih like that

2021-08-24 01:28

Have you at least considered the possibility that they just weren't able to sign Cold or someone of his caliber yet? Pain won't allow saffe. RCF is mehh. According to him, Cold received 7 or 8 proposals and probably has a reason to not be in a team yet. H0nda and drop are just stand-ins. Furia obviously know what they're doing. But it is rather hard to understand why drop instead of piria

2021-08-27 15:07

Guerri said they didn’t picked anyone yet because the market is inflated pre-Major. Which means they won’t buy a player like cold or saffe before Stockholm. Doesn’t make any sense since the ultimate objective of playing CSGO is winning a major.

2021-08-27 16:22

This guy has a VAC banned account. Very smart by Furia!!!!

2021-08-24 01:43

lol, another garbage player from Furia academy

2021-08-24 03:10

what a stupid move by furia! however we will see how they play

2021-08-24 04:08

Apparently hen1 is hard to replace

2021-08-24 04:14

apparently hen1 preffer playing with his brother in tier3 rather than winning a major

2021-08-26 22:12

Even furia not being favorite by anyway of winning a major, yes, he loves lucas

2021-08-26 23:42

Drop had a vac ban for skin changer and he didn't play with isurus in rmr tournament,uhm

2021-08-24 08:42

Furia is the new NiP at this point. Tier 4 academy player not performing? Promote someone else from the tier 4 academy team and put them in the same shit roles within the same broken team structure
