kNgV- returns in O PLANO with a new lineup

"I'm looking forward to playing again and I don't want to talk too much," the Brazilian AWPer said, "I want to shoot."

O PLANO is back with AWPer Vito "⁠kNgV-⁠" Giuseppe leading the way alongside coach Raphael "⁠cogu⁠" Camargo, the only two members of the previous iteration of the O PLANO team that went on to get picked up by 00NATION.

The 29-year-old was removed from the 00NATION lineup in April and started working on organizing O PLANO, a plan he has brought to fruition after cutting ties with the Norwegian organization in June.

The new roster, which is made up of the aforementioned duo alongside Gabriel "⁠NEKIZ⁠" Schenato, Guilherme "⁠piriajr⁠" Barbosa, Gustavo "⁠yel⁠" Knittel and Caike "⁠caike⁠" Costa, was presented at a press conference on Friday.

kNgV- and cogu brought on young blood in piriajr, a 19-year-old who sports a career 1.08 rating in the Brazilian scene. The rest of the team is much more experienced, with caike and yel the two next players to jump on board.

The initial idea was to have two youngsters on the roster, but the team learned of NEKIZ leaving paiN and jumped on the opportunity to get the 26-year-old on board. "We saw the opportunity to have an experienced guy, who plays fucking well, and just signed one youngster to have a more robust team to play the Major," kNgV- said.

Several players on the team can pick up the AWP, but kNgV- will take the role of main AWPer, although in-game leader yel and even the youngster, piriajr, could be seen picking up the secondary AWP.

"I have managed to put together a team that is more than the sum of its pieces," kNgV- said. "More than players who play a lot. Everyone plays very much, but here I have put a group together."

O PLANO's new lineup is comprised of:

Vito "⁠kNgV-⁠" Giuseppe
Gabriel "⁠NEKIZ⁠" Schenato
Guilherme "⁠piriajr⁠" Barbosa
Gustavo "⁠yel⁠" Knittel
Caike "⁠caike⁠" Costa

Raphael "⁠cogu⁠" Camargo (coach)
