paiN starting five set with zevy and skullz

16/8/2022 - 14:18

The move for Romeu "⁠zevy⁠" Rocco is reported to have cost the Brazilian organization around $325,000€.

paiN is back to a full five after parting ways with Gabriel "⁠NEKIZ⁠" Schenato — who signed with O PLANO — and moving Gabriel "⁠nython⁠" Lino to the bench, as the Brazilian squad is now reinforced with the additions of zevy and Felipe "⁠skullz⁠" Medeiros.

kNgV- returns in O PLANO with a new lineup

The transfer didn't come cheap for paiN, however, as the organization had to pay a hefty 325,000€ according to Dust.com.br for the 21-year-old Sharks AWPer, as well as another unknown transfer fee for skullz, who joins from ODDIK.

zevy's transfer cost paiN a pretty penny

paiN, who have been hovering around the top 20-30 positions in the world ranking for the majority of 2022, will hope that the signing of two hard-shooting youngsters with room to progress will give the team the extra boost needed to break through into the top 20.

zevy posted a 1.17 rating during his time in Sharks between March 2021 and August 2022, and currently sits at a spectacular 1.38 in the past two months, albeit with only 12 maps played. skullz also has impressive numbers to his name in the last three months, the 20-year-old averages a 1.19 rating across 40 maps played.

It now remains to be seen how the duo, who have mostly competed within the confines in Brazil so far, will adapt outside of their borders as paiN have carved a spot in the international circuit, such as the coming DreamHack Melbourne on September 2-4. Before traveling to Australia, they'll remain in South America for the duration of the Road to Rio RMR open qualifiers.

paiN is now:

Romeu "⁠zevy⁠" Rocco
Vinicios "⁠PKL⁠" Coelho
Wesley "⁠hardzao⁠" Lopes
Rodrigo "⁠biguzera⁠" Bittencourt
Felipe "⁠skullz⁠" Medeiros

Henrique "⁠rikz⁠" Waku (coach)

Gabriel "⁠nython⁠" Lino (benched)

It's actually more expensive than that, and it also shows that saffee didn't cost more than that because paiN calls it "the most expensive br cs transfer ever"

2022-08-16 19:20

bullshit sharks sell their players for this price because the other organizations are rich and dumb, so they are willing to pay these absurds. but NEVER zevy will cost 325k NEVER

2022-08-16 14:30

Indeed, and performance wise Brazil keeps tanking while figures keep growing. It's really a clown show

2022-08-16 14:32

zevy costing half m0nesy zevy costing equal the entire ex-copenhagen flames roster i'm shocked

Ez4zevyce

325k for zevy? kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!

325,000€ damn bro

Never heard of zevy and he costs almost as much as the coppenhagen Flames team lol

lol i feel like a clown seeing these kinda prices for tier2 br players, second in a roll also, BR orgs should be signing international players if they gonna spend R$ 1.7 MIL in one fking player smh

2022-08-16 14:37

yeah except nobody wants to watch a Br org with EU/CIS players

2022-08-16 19:13

yeah speak for yourself

2022-08-16 20:58

Hes roght tho brazil been making bad moves but not as bad as NA teams lol. And hes right about one thing thing the brazillians fans still love brazillian teams even if rhey lose and it bring alot of promo and views advertisement more sponsors and investment that way. Is like any sport is also about show and popularity. Otherwise orgs TOs and etc might start pulling out and that's bad for any sport or oranization. But most likely someome would just replace their shoes.

2022-08-17 16:13

lmfao 325k for the farsa gaulesa is just too much

Money laundering

2022-08-16 14:36

Finally someone who understand why they pay so much

2022-08-16 16:12

Trying to exchange into inflated monies = profot if u live in brazil lol

2022-08-17 16:15

Players was so expensive that they forgot to make an announcement

The main question: impressive numbers against who?

againster tier3 pug teams LUL but they're very good indeed so let's see what happens

Yeah, I'm sure they are. Nowadays everyone can win everyone and the border between t1 and t2 teams is almost gone

2022-08-16 15:24

325k for a tier 4 awper. Pain got scammed big fucking time. They'll get that money back prolly once they sell biguzera

is zevy huge upgrade over nython?

No lol that's why this is dumb If Maluk3 was their awper I would understand, but nython was their 2nd best player by far

2022-08-16 14:41

not even close! nython was performing very well imagine paying 325k to replace your 2nd best rated player for a small upgrade i can't even believe my friend

2022-08-16 14:42

bench best player and then pay 300k for his replacement this management....

nython asked to be benched mate

source please

2022-08-16 15:10

thank you friend weird choice coming from nython imo

2022-08-16 15:44

both players skilled but nython was literally their best player so i don't get this change... especially why paying that amount for a player in a tier2 scene

2022-08-16 14:49

biguzera better , but i dont understand nython beching either

2022-08-16 15:50

Argentinian pesos

2022-08-17 18:28

Zevvy is more expensive than Zywoo when he was still in AAA lol

2022-08-16 15:38

´´$325,000€´´ new currency???

2022-08-16 15:48

Lucaozy and zevy Sharks ez 500K+ Euro kek

2022-08-16 15:54

ez farm :D

2022-08-16 16:52

lmao

2022-08-16 16:14

This upgrade from nython to zevy at this price... really not worth it. The question that remains is where nython will go. It seems he will warm pain's bench for a while.

2022-08-16 16:24

The PAIN team got much better, maybe this is the best team they've ever had.

2022-08-16 16:51

Sharks wtf

2022-08-16 16:56

Great signings tbh., but I'm really surprised they benched nython, he looked really good I feel like, atleast in the matches I've watched. Anyway, GL boys. This paiN team has been really good to watch in the last season.

2022-08-16 17:39

He asked to be benched

2022-08-16 19:58

Why?

2022-08-17 11:32

Nobody never said, not the journalists, not nython himself but probably a health problem or family problem or he didn't trust the team anymore, didn't feel it

2022-08-17 14:06

Really sad, I hope he can bounce back in the future.

2022-08-17 16:56

zevyce too strong

2022-08-16 17:52

who cares

2022-08-16 17:56

Nython was super good, interested to see this new dude farm premier

2022-08-16 18:38

Skullz is new talent !! Zevyce is monster !! PKL is very bad !! Nithon is nice ! *-*

2022-08-16 18:41

Zevy is good but 325k for him was absurd and even so they probably won't qualify for RMR

2022-08-16 18:49

Zevy god

2022-08-16 19:01

325k euros is low money get over with it guys stop bitching here

2022-08-16 19:21

ZEVYCE I'm so happy that both him and lucaozy will play vs EU teams, they deserved it for so long!

2022-08-16 20:41

Totally unreasonable. €325,000 for a tier 4 player. Zevy had his moment in the 2021 major and he didn't take advantage of it, sharks were never a good team and that's why they fell to the place they belong, +#150 hltv ranking. The joke is that in Pain a not very serious team led by hardzao and biguzera who are just friends and don't mind playing well in tier 3.

2022-08-16 21:18

325k for a dude with no achievements

2022-08-16 22:02

Ez for Z E V Y C E

2022-08-17 00:48
