OG round out roster with F1KU and NEOFRAG

The incoming duo complete the starting five following the benching of Nikolaj "⁠niko⁠" Kristensen and Valdemar "⁠valde⁠" Bjørn Vangså.

OG have announced the signing of two new players, Maciej "⁠F1KU⁠" Miklas and Adam "⁠NEOFRAG⁠" Zouhar, to revamp their roster which was depleted to just three members as the two Danes, niko and valde, were moved to the bench after the team failed to qualify for the PGL Major in Antwerp.

OG confirm valde benching

The youngest of the two newcomers, 18-year-old F1KU, is transferring to OG from AGO, the team he joined in late 2019 and in which he had been plying his trade until now. During that time, the Pole averaged a 1.08 rating and won two ESEA MDL/Premier seasons to compete at ESL Pro League twice.

NEOFRAG is one of the top prospects in Europe

OG's Czech signing, NEOFRAG, is one of the most compelling prospects in Europe since breaking out with SINNERS, where he played since the beginning of 2020, peaking in 19th place in the HLTV ranking.

During his tenure in the top Czech squad the 21-year-old averaged a 1.18 rating and was a key component in SINNERS reaching events of the stature of ESL Pro League and the most recent RMR, where the team was eliminated from reaching the Major at the final hurdle in the Swiss stage's 2-2 decider match by Bad News Eagles.

"I’m very excited as today marks a new day in OG CS:GO as we welcome NEOFRAG and F1KU to our ranks," Casper "⁠ruggah⁠" Due said. "They are young, motivated and hungry to prove themselves on the biggest stage, and in-game their profiles was a very clear match to what we’ve searched for ever since we started the process of re-building the roster.

"With their raw talent and consistency, they have already shown during the last year in SINNERS and AGO that they have the skillset to help push our team to new heights."

The new-look OG will debut in official competition at the BLAST Premier Spring Final in Lisbon, Portugal, which will take place on June 15-19, but will first play in the Teleperformance PXP Showmatch on Friday at 20:00 against MIBR.
