Fluxo has officially announced the inclusion of Romeu “zevy” Rocco, Vinicios “PKL” Coelho, and Henrique “t9rnay” Menacho to their roster, confirming previous reports by GameArena and Dust2.br. The organization sought these three players to fill the vacancies in their team.
This new trio replaces Allan “history” Lawrenz, João “felps” Vasconcellos, and Adriano “WOOD7” Cerato, who have all been moved to Fluxo’s bench.
PKL and zevy join Fluxo from paiN Gaming, with PKL having been benched since February and zevy being excluded from the lineup after a decline in performance following the BLAST.tv Paris Major. Despite zevy’s recent struggles, he had a strong performance during his nearly year-long tenure with paiN, maintaining an average rating of 1.14 overall and 1.07 on LAN.
However, zevy’s performance dipped in 2023, with an overall rating of 1.12 and an offline rating of 1.02. The latter statistic was particularly concerning for the team as they faced early eliminations in the IEM Katowice Play-In, ESL Challenger Katowice, and the BLAST.tv Paris Major Challengers Stage.
Fluxo also had a disappointing performance at the Major, faltering in the same stage with an even worse record of 0-3, compared to paiN’s 2-3 score. Consequently, both teams underwent significant roster changes during the off-season, with Fluxo replacing their in-game leader WOOD7 with PKL, who returns to action after a five-month break.
Completing Fluxo’s roster is t9rnay, who previously played for RED Canids. The 21-year-old has showcased impressive skills, maintaining an average rating of 1.18 for the Brazilian team in 2023. He attracted interest from various organizations during the off-season, including Paquetá, paiN, Fluxo, and a new project led by Leonardo “leo_drk” Oliveira.
The remaining members from Fluxo’s previous roster are Lucas “Lucaozy” Neves and Vinicius “vsm” Moreira. The team’s former analyst, lokomotioN, has been promoted to the position of coach, filling the void left by Wilton “zews” Prado’s departure.
In summary, Fluxo’s updated lineup consists of Vinicius “vsm” Moreira, Lucas “Lucaozy” Neves, Romeu “zevy” Rocco, Vinicios “PKL” Coelho, and Henrique “t9rnay” Menacho. They are supported by coach Joaquin “lokomotioN” Abasolo.
The benched players are João “felps” Vasconcellos, Adriano “WOOD7” Cerato, and Allan “history” Lawrenz.
