According to a report by Rush B Media, plans for the new line-ups of Cloud9 and OpTic Gaming\u2019s CS:GO rosters have once again changed. It was originally reported by Dust2.DK that Cloud9 were in discussions to acquire OpTic Gaming\u2019s k0nfig and Jakob \u2018JUGi\u2019 Hansen. Cloud9 are currently looking to fill the spaces left by the departure of Robin \u2018Flusha\u2019 Ronnquist and Fabien \u2018kioShiMa\u2019 Fiey.

According to the Rush B report, JUGi is still in talks with Cloud9, but OpTic may now be holding onto k0nfig and instead removing in-game leader Snappi from their roster. Dexerto haven\u2019t independently verified which of OpTic\u2019s current players will be leaving the team at this time. As Cloud9 in this scenario will only be signing one OpTic Gaming player, Rush B report that they will instead look to retain the services of kioShiMa. This move would also ensure Cloud9 hold onto their spot in the StarLadder Berlin Major, with three players who competed for them in the IEM Katowice Major remaining on the team. Assuming the moves go through as reported by Rush B, the two teams\u2019 rosters would consist of the following players.
